The USA thanks you so that we may spend time with our families. The average USA private corporate worker only gets around 7 holiday days off a year. Know that we will gladly cover your holidays as well.
Indeed. Thanks, war4peace, for covering. And unlike most other first world countries, there is no legally mandated minimum yearly vacation in the US. Some workers may get no vacation at all during the year, so these holidays are a welcome time off.
Not at all intended to hate on USians (we're all family), but I stopped considering the USA a first world country a while ago... And things like that are some of the reasons why.

I care for my colleagues and they have that time free anyway, they don't depend on me covering for them. But thanks for the nice words.

Deep fried butter is a staple at many of the US state fairs.
The trick is to take a frozen stick of butter.
As for bacon, you need to pre-fry it before you batter it. Cut a stick of wood just slightly bigger a stick of butter, wrap the bacon around it, and fry it (including three tilts).
Then slide out the wooden stick, slide in a frozen butter stick, dip it in batter, flour and batter again, and deep fry it.
Let it cool slightly, then serve it Nyotaimori style.

No, but I am trying to find out how to deep-fry whisky.
The challenge is for the alcohol to not catch fire in the fryer nor evaporate, yet avoid using a vessel for holding the whisky that's either inedible or changes the flavour.
I've thought about filling the whisky inside an ice cube, but sealing it is the hard part. Any ideas that would pass an engineering test?

Not really. Like most American holidays (e.g. Labor Day, Presidents Day, MLK Day, Memorial Day, etc.), Thanksgiving has lost most meaning beyond an excuse to get together with family and eat a bunch of good food.
Not that there's anything wrong with that. The original meaning has to do with some colonists who were rescued by some of the natives. This being a country of immigrants, most families' histories have about as much to do with the original Thanksgiving as they do with Yom Kippur. If it weren't for the traditional big meal with the family, I suspect Thanksgiving would join May Day on the list of holidays Americans no longer give a shit about.

The U.S. government decided the day to honor labor should get moved away from May 1st since May Day celebrations were associated with socialists, communists, etc. That's why the U.S. celebrates Labor Day as the first Monday in September.
On the other hand, that leaves May Day open for doing things with virgins and maypoles.
I recall the day in high school that President John Kennedy was assasinated. It also happens to be my birthday. So the day is never ordinary.

KINSTON — Many have survived it; you can, too.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Teams of survivors and their loved ones across the country are preparing for one of the largest fundraisers of the year — Relay for Life, which raises money for cancer research.
As frightening as breast cancer is, there are countless survivors. Just how did they deal with the news of their diagnosis and the consequential treatments?
And what happens if they don't have insurance?
"Marianna," who asked not to use her real name, felt an unusual lump in her right breast in March 2011. She had no insurance and little money, so she ignored it for a while.
Marianna went to a clinic about four months later and was scheduled for a mammogram. But she decided she better apply for Medicaid first, which she did. Then she had the mammogram, which turned up positive — for a dreaded tumor.
Marianna's Medicaid application was denied. She said she didn't qualify for disability because she hadn't worked for at least the past four years and having a tumor isn't considered a disability.
"I didn't work because I was taking care of my mom and uncle," the 65-year-old said.
Her sister, a nurse, suggested she go to the Leo W. Jenkins Cancer Center in Greenville. There, she was told by a social worker there is a program available through Medicaid for people who don't have insurance. But she discovered the patient has to be diagnosed through her local health department, which she wasn't.
"She said Social Services should have told me, but they didn't," Marianna said, referring to her sister.
She discussed the problem with the Department of Social Services and made an appeal, but was still denied.
"(Social Services) said you have to go to the health department first," Marianna said. "I want to let other women know if you find a lump and don't have insurance, they need to go to the health department first."
Marianna said she probably racked up about $150,000 worth of debt, which she couldn't pay. Dodging bill collectors, she lost count of exactly how much she was billed after a while. So besides undergoing months of chemotherapy, radiation and surgeries, she still faces more bills.
"If I win the lottery," she said, "I'll pay everybody back."
Susan Moore, director of the Lenoir County Department of Social Services, said a number of changes have been made at the department.
"In North Carolina," she said, "the General Assembly has chosen not to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act."
To qualify for disability, a person must be ages 19-64, pregnant or have a minor child and be totally disabled or suffering a fatal disease.
As of Oct. 1, Moore said, both Medicaid and food stamp case workers are using information scripts, as all of them handle clients for both programs whether or not they have been trained in both.
Evelyn Herring, Breast Cervical Cancer Control Program coordinator at the Lenoir County Health Department, agreed that patients must be diagnosed through the health department and qualify financially to receive assistance through the BCCCP, which is state and federally funded.
Once diagnosed through a health department, the patient applies for Medicaid. Lenoir County is allotted 35 patients a year.
"I apply for the BCCCP and that pays for medical, surgery and treatment," Herring said.
Lisa Miller is the BCCCP coordinator for Greene County, which currently serves 25 patients through the program.
She said the patient must be income-eligible. But cancer patients should not despair over money.
"They will try to find some funding for them," Miller said about patients who don't qualify for BCCCP. "We don't turn anyone away here."
A second opinion
Herring said she is a 14-year breast cancer survivor working part-time at the health department. Prior to that, she was an oncology nurse for 15 years.
"The main thing I would tell a lady with breast cancer," she said, "when you get a diagnosis of breast cancer, it's not a death sentence."
Yvette Jackson, 48, of Kinston, may have felt like she had received a death sentence when she saw the look on her doctor's face after a breast examination.
"She had this strange look on her face like something was not right," Jackson said.
She had previously felt a knot in her left breast, but thought it was fibrocystic like her other breast.
Her gynecologist had her get a mammogram and an ultrasound — something she always got every year.
There was a tumor.
Jackson could have had a needle biopsy then, but her gynecologist had told her to come back for a follow-up. She did and was set her up with a surgeon for a biopsy in July 2012.
The doctor removed a portion of the tumor.
"He confirmed that I had breast cancer," she said about the surgeon. "It was not a pleasant experience because he came in smiling."
Her only option, Jackson said the doctor told her, was a mastectomy.
"The way he described it to me," Jackson said about the doctor, "it was like a rapid growing tumor."
In shock, Jackson got reassurance from various people she knows and prayed.
She decided not to tell her mother right away. Instead, she told her aunt, who made an appointment for her at the Cancer Centers of North Carolina in Raleigh.
A specialist there — Dr. Lisa Tolnitch, who founded the Pretty in Pink Foundation and performed the first lumpectomy in Raleigh in 1988 — was horrified over the fact that Jackson hadn't gotten a needle biopsy first, Jackson said.
"On top of that," she said, "I had staples in my breast and (Tolnitch) was furious. She told the assistant to remove the staples. She put a strip of tape on it and it healed quicker than it had with the staples."
Jackson was also given a choice of three options. She said she decided on a lumpectomy because it's not as invasive as a mastectomy. After more than a year of treatments, she was clear of cancer.
Fortunately, Jackson had taken out an insurance policy for cancer beforehand and also had disability insurance so she only had to pay her deductible. She used up every bit of every type of leave and vacation she had at work, but she continued to get a paycheck.
Jackson said she had many rough days, even days where she had to crawl because it hurt to walk. But she was glad she got a second opinion.
"If you are first diagnosed with cancer," Jackson said, "do not be afraid to get a second opinion. Once you're going through surgery, chemotherapy and all the treatments and start feeling bad, do not ever get negative, do not ever give up — not ever."
She cautions other women going through treatments to eat nutritional foods to keep the blood count up and get a support system of family, friends, neighbors and co-workers.
Faith, support is critical
Pam Suggs, 45, of Shine in Greene County, runs a support group in the Neuse Room at Lenoir Memorial Hospital at 6:30 p.m. on the second Tuesday of each month.
She also is captain of a Greene County Relay for Life team and has supported benefit events for other cancer patients.
There are many costs that insurance may not cover, such as some prosthetics, wigs and certain medications, she said.
Suggs faced breast cancer with two small children ages 4 and 7 after being diagnosed during an annual exam.
"From two to three weeks," she said, "you're feeling healthy to being diagnosed with breast cancer. So it was kind of a shock."
Suggs regularly had annual exams, or she may not have been here today, she said.
"I did self-exams," she said, "but, obviously, not routinely enough or not as often as I should."
With faith and support from friends and family, Suggs is a 10-year survivor.
"I give my condition and where I am today to God," she said.
Carol Swaney, 57, thought the knot she felt on her left breast was scar tissue from surgery when her milk glands were blocked. A biopsy showed there was a stage four malignant tumor. She underwent a lumpectomy and had 12 lymph nodes removed.
"It completely blew my mind," she said. "I was devastated."
Swaney said her husband, Derwood Swaney, had just gone through double-bypass heart surgery, yet he and other family members provided support to her. She prayed she would see her grandchildren grow up.
She went to the Leo W. Jenkins Cancer Center and raves about the support she received there, as well.
"Don't take anything for granted," she said. "If you feel a knot of any kind, small or large, go get it checked out."
The experience brought a taste of reality to Swaney and has changed her life, including the way she talks to others.
"Before, I was very quick-tempered, spoke what was on my mind," she said, "… Now I'm totally opposite."

It is becoming increasingly difficult for students to attend college, specifically private universities.
While the number of students who seek out federal funding in the form of Pell grants increases, the amount of available monies shrinks. Gonzaga is working to compensate for this discrepancy, as well as the swelling group of college-aged students, but the challenge grows each year.
Gonzaga's need for scholarship support is not about keeping our enrollment numbers up, it is about fulfilling a mission to positively impact our neighborhoods, communities and society by educating men and women for others. Gonzaga graduates possess the knowledge and skills to contribute to the work force and the aptitude and desire to do well and to live ethically and positively.
The total annual estimated cost for a full-time undergraduate to attend Gonzaga this year is about $43,240, including tuition, room and board, fees and personal expenses (books, travel, etc.). For most of Gonzaga's undergraduates, the ability to cover those costs simply would not be possible were it not for financial aid packages.
Scholarships are a critical component of these packages. Students are awarded scholarships, based upon both academic merit and financial need. Gifts to scholarships ensure that deserving and talented young men and women have the opportunity to earn a college degree at Gonzaga University. (For information on Regional Scholarships, click here.)
Make a real difference in the lives of a Gonzaga students and make a gift to scholarships through the Annual Campaign.

Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education Announces Expanded Focus and New Editor-In-Chief
CONTACT: Jim Sliwa
WASHINGTON, DC – December 9, 2013 – The American Society for Microbiology announces that starting in 2014, The Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education (JMBE) will expand its scope beyond the current focus on undergraduate education research, curriculum, and practices.
"In addition to publishing manuscripts under the established guidelines, JMBE now welcomes thoughtful manuscripts that address: student interest and motivation, recruitment and retention, citizen science and science outreach, K–12 education and outreach, institutional transformation, online education and MOOCS, systemic transformation, and a broadening participation," writes Editor-In-Chief Christopher Woolverton of Kent State University in an editorial in the December 2013 issue.
Woolverton, who has headed JMBE for the past five years, will be succeeded in January 2014 as editor-in-chief by Samantha Elliott; an associate professor of biology at St. Mary's College of Maryland. Her research focuses on the immune response of the nematode C. elegans, as well as on curricular design and interventions to help underrepresented groups succeed in STEM disciplines. An active member of the biology education research community, Elliott is an alumnus of the ASM Biology Scholars Program and the Project Kaleidoscope (PKAL) Summer Leadership Institute. She completed her doctorate in immunology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and her postdoctoral fellowship at Duke University. In a statement, JMBE thanked Dr. Woolverton for his leadership over the past five years. During that time, the Journal has moved into the digital publishing age, secured international indexing, developed resources for authors, and began collecting advertising fees.

The Laphroaig Project. It is #53 on 7x7 Magazine's list of 100 Things To Try Before You Die.

"Try the Kentucky Buck!"
"If you're in a group, order a punch bowl. They'll give you several cups and a ladle for around $35."
"Go to the back bar for quicker service if the front is packed."
A true destination for any cocktail lover, Rickhouse boasts a staff of knowledgeable bartenders and an impressive atmosphere to boot. With live music every Saturday night and 300 bourbon barrels adorning the ceiling, what's not to love?

The New Agrarian Center
The New Agrarian Center is a tax-exempt, not-for-profit organization that helps to build healthy, sustainable & equitable communities and local food systems. We do this through two key programs:
City Fresh provides naturally grown, local produce at weekly Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Fresh Stops in Cuyahoga and Lorain counties. City Fresh meets the needs of both urban and rural communities by improving access to fresh, locally grown food for urban residents and increasing marketing opportunities in the city for local farmers. Shares have two prices to accommodate low-income shareholders.
The GEORGE JONES FARM
The GJ Farm is a 70 acre research farm and nature preserve inpsired by permaculture. Using techniques that build agricultural systems with as much complexity and diversity as natural ecosystems, the George Jones Farm is a rich complex of market gardens, learning spaces, naturally designed buildings, and restored wetland, prairie, and woodland habitats. The goal is to train the next generation of farmers while inspiring an ethic of earth care.
Our vision is to build a vibrant network that links the local foods movement with social justice, economic development, and environmental stewardship.

T Element Mid GTX Men RRP $ 149.00
A mid-cut lightweight Tec Hiking boot boasting a wealth of innovation, including a Mammu-developed Runner sole, Torsion Reinforcement, and Mammut Rolling Concept for safety and comfort. The patented Mammut Base Fit lacing system transfers the force of the lacing to the sole: free of pressure points, this prevents the foot from slipping around inside the boot. The highly breathable GORE-TEX Extended Comfort Footwear membrane guarantees the boot's waterproof credentials. Additional features include use of protective Liquid Rubber reinforcements and a rugged board-lasted construction.
Shoes must be protected from water, wet conditions and dirt. Since wet conditions and dirt affect leather's natural properties, such as temperature control and comfort, shoe care is a very important area.
- Use a brush to remove any dirt, or brush the shoe under running water to remove persistent soiling
- Leather cleaning products are not recommended since the soap damages the waterproofing treatment
- After cleaning the shoes, rub in the appropriate wax or silicone-based care products or polish them using a soft brush
- Dry leather needs nutrients in the form of wax (no grease or oil). Apply a very thin layer and then work into the leather
- The application of wax makes nubuk or velours leather appear darker and smoother. Liquid care products maintain the leather's original appearance for longer, but provide fewer nutrients
- The best way to clean the lining (textile, GORE-TEX® and leather) is using lots of cold water and a sponge. The lining retains high quantities of salt from perspiration. In the long term, these can have a damaging effect on textiles and leather lining materials.

COLUMBUS, Ohio—Freshman Sean Sargent and sophomore Michael Nash finished 27th and 28th in the one-meter dive, respectively, at the NCAA Zone C Diving Championships hosted at Ohio State's McCorkle Aquatics Pavilion in Columbus, Ohio.
Day two of the Zone C Diving Championships featured the one-meter diving event on the men's side while women's competitors took part in the three-meter diving event. Nash and Sargent, the only RedHawks competing at the meet, took 18th and 35th overall, respectively, on Thursday in the three-meter dive.
Sargent recieved 263.60 points in the one-meter dive, which earned him a 27th place finish on Friday. Nash scored 263.20 points for 28th overall in the one-meter event. Neither RedHawk qualified for the finals, finishing outside the top 18 divers in preliminaries.
The NCAA Zone C Diving Championships are just one of five such events taking place across the country. Each one is allotted qualifying births to the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships, which kick off later this month. Zone C has been allotted nine spots, so the top three divers in the three-meter dive, the top three in the one-meter event and the top two finishers in the platform dive are to automatically qualify for the NCAA Championships.
The Zone C Diving Championships wrap up Saturday with platform diving. Neither Nash or Sargent are competing on the third and final day of the meet in the platform dive.
Click here to follow along with the diving results at DiveMeets.com.
The NCAA Division I Men's Championship will take place in Minneapolis, Minn. from Thursday, Mar. 27 through Saturday, Mar. 29.

Everybody Needs Somebody...
Some of your plants will do better when paired with others in a style called companion planting, where you purposely place taller plants next to shorter plants so that the small guys can benefit from the shade of the bigger guys. This method is not limited to vegetables alone. You can cleverly intermix flowers with your vegetables and watch them grow beautifully before your eyes.
So go ahead, get on out there and don't let your limited space keep your green thumb from working its magic!

Integrating BTM with Hibernate
Hibernate can be integrated straight with any JTA transaction manager.
The biggest added value (omitting the fact that you can use Hibernate and two databases) is Hibernate's Current Session context management with JTA. You do not have to take care about opening nor closing
Session as Hibernate will automatically bind them to the JTA transaction's lifecycle. You just have to make sure JTA transactions are properly started and ended.
JTA datasources
Hibernate cannot directly create a BTM
PoolingDataSource. You will have to create them yourself (either via the API or the Resource Loader) and make sure they are bound to a JNDI server.
API way: Creating the datasources
As you can expect, you will need to create one
PoolingDataSource per database. Say that you want to use two Embedded Derby databases, and configure them via the BTM API. Here is what your code would look like:
API way: Binding the datasources to JNDI
You have to bind the datasources to some JNDI server. You can use any one you wish, including the one embedded in your application server.
In the case you want to run Hibernate in a standalone application, you can use Tomcat's JNDI server as it is very easy to use it in a standalone J2SE application.
Just create a
jndi.properties file at the root of your classpath. It should only contain this line:
Then add these two jar files to your classpath:
They are available in any Tomcat 5.5 distribution, just look into the
TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib folder.
This will configure Tomcat's JNDI server as the default implementation. It is a simple intra-VM server that implements the most important JNDI features. You can now just create a InitialContext with the no-args constructor to have access to it.
Finally, here is the code to bind the datasources:
Resource Loader way: Creating the datasources
You can use BTM's Resource Loader instead of the BTM API. It is usually a good idea when you want to create a fully standalone application as you can get rid of the datasources creation, JNDI binding and shutdown code.
Create a
datasources.properties file in the current directory containing these properties:
In your application code, you will have to configure BTM to use the resource loader:
This has the exact same behavior as creating the
PoolingDataSource objects and binding them to JNDI yourself. It is just more convenient.
Hibernate Session factories
You need to configure exactly one
SessionFactory per datasource.
Datasource JNDI location
You have to tell Hibernate where to get the BTM datasource via JNDI. Add a connection.datasource property and set its value to the JNDI location of your datasource:
Current session context
You have to set current_session_context_class to
Transaction factory class
You have to set transaction.factory_class to org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory.
Transaction manager lookup class
You have to set transaction.manager_lookup_class to an implementation of TransactionManagerLookup that you have to create yourself. Here is an example implementation if this interface:
Then add this property:
Here is what the
hibernate_testDS1.cfg.xml file will look like for the first datasource. Some other mandatory properties also have to be added, like the
cache.provider_class and of course the required object mappings.
And here is the
hibernate_testDS2.cfg.xml for the second datasource:
Application code
Finally, here is what your code will look like when you want to update the content of both databases atomically:

Help me choose a TV!
Hi everyone!
Currently I have a small 33" HDTV and I'm thinking of an upgrade.
I think I'll go for a 55" tv since the distance between the tv and the coach is 3m or around 120". 60" sounds a bit too big. That pretty much settled, but if you have anything to say you are welcomed.
Anyway, around 1/3 of the time will be gaming on my Xbox 360, and the other 2/3 will be actually watching stuff. So I thought I would go for plasma since I hear plasma has much better refresh rates and it very important for games, on the other hand, I hear that newer LED screen have pretty good ones too. Should I go for plasma? I hear LEDs also have some problems like noise and backlight probs. I would also like to hear a bit about watching plasma in a bright room. Is it all that bad?
Since Panasonic plasmas are the best I thought I would go for UT50. Is it a right choice?
The budget is around 2 000$. Can get higher if needed. Lower if possible.

This site is trusted and has some good recommendations.
For your usage I would bump up a model to the ST50 Panny series. You can get the ST50 in 55" for $1,200.
Unless you want to pay about 2X more for a local dimming LED like the Sharp Elite, a plasma is going to have better colors and much better black levels and contrast. Unless the sun shining through a window right on the TV screen, light is not a problem. I use a plasma in the living room with the blinds open and it is just fine.
You night read over some threads at AVS Forum for ideas. The ST50 is highly regarded by forum members there also.

I purchased the Samsung UN55EH6000 from Amazon for $1000 and am quite happy with it. Mind you, I'm an a/v purist but a realist... meaning that I know I can have better black levels, but not really for the money. The solution to that is easy: Adjust the ambient lighting of your viewing wall to roughly match the screen. It doesn't matter how great a TV you have... if you watch any brightly lit surface in a totally dark room, your eyes will always be trying to balance the screen luminosity with the surrounding area, causing a more washed out appearance than the same screen in a properly, marginally-lit room (this is why good theaters leave the wall sconces on a bit, in addition to safety).
I don't care for the bells and whistles. I don't need 12 HDMI ports and 3D and all that... so all around I'm very pleased that I got more bang for my buck. It's a very decent TV and even better if you calibrate the picture settings properly (desaturate the image to about 25% color, turn off smooth motion, etc.)
Plasmas have their own drawbacks... You'll notice things like line bleed and other color irregularities in place of the black levels issues. These, to me, are less correctible than adjusting ambient light to compensate for black levels in an otherwise consistent picture. But, just depends on which abnormality is going to drive you nuts more. Neither plasma nor LCD are going to beat a good old Sony Trinitron CRT, but Sony doesn't make them anymore... So, you're going to have to pick a tradeoff.

Thanks you both.
I was reading AVS forums a lot lately, but thanks for the other link.
Can you tell me a bit about the refresh rates on the new models? Is led's still bad?
Also, another guy advised me to get Samsung E6500 (it's not available at 55" but I think 60" is fine too) because its better at bright rooms (he didn't see my room too). What do you think?
So, Avatar74, what do you basically advise me in my situation? Also I would like to add that I live in Russia I it wont be easy to just go and compare TVs in shop. Also thanks for noting the importance of adjusting the settings.

I personally like the look of the plasma picture better then any LCD on the market.
I have had three Panasonic plasmas (current one is the 65" VT30 ).
I would see if there are any stores near you that are not big box stores. They will most likely have more realistic lighting to what you will have at your home. Magnolia can be a good resource if your local Best Buy has one.
Don't always go by ratings. They can be a decent way to narrow down options, but use your eyes as the final decision maker.
Good luck!
|Oct 29, 2012, 11:27 AM
1. On contrast/black levels, you'll get better quality out of plasmas.... but you can compensate for this with lighting the room accordingly.
2. On color and clarity, you're going to get better performance for the price out of an LCD, particularly if it has local dimming (mine apparently doesn't, but this doesn't bother me tremendously).
3. It sounds like glare is an issue with the UT50, so if you spend more time in a well-lit room than a dark one, maybe LCD is a better choice for you because the contrast isn't as much of an issue there either.
4. Whichever set you choose, 120/240hz makes little or no difference if you watch more movies than sports. You will NOT want to use this feature on movies. But both 120/240 are divisible by 24, 30 and 60 frames per second... but not the DVB-T standard of 25 frames per second... so neither of them is going to be better than the other with Russian digital broadcasts.
Does that help? Any other questions that might help you decide which one is right for you?

Thanks mate, I was asking about refresh rates because they are important for video games, but I don't know how much is it important. Any help?
Also I can turn the lights off, it's not a problem.
So basically, LED (I assume you meant LCD-LED by LED?) is generally better on movies, considering image quality? I'm buying tv solely for movies and games. Don't watch sport.
Also I watch a lot of animation (I'm an animator myself) but I guess any TV will do, yes?
By the way, Russia is on DVB-T2 since this year. Changes something? I just don't know what this even means. I only know that we will finally be able to watch HD.

OP - I would stay clear of the LCD's. refresh rates (even the 240 sets) are pathetic.
My buddy has an LED 240hz and we watched a football game a few weeks ago. I can see the lag on his tv lol.
My Panasonic Plasma gets no lag, colors look better and blacks are black - which all mean truer picture
The only people who get LED/LCD's are people who listen to the best buy employees lol.
Best picture = plasma.

I have a 55" ST50 and absolutely love it. IMHO plasma's have a better overall true picture than LCD's. In the stores they blast the brightness and everyone seems to think the LCD's look better. Back light bleed is also a killer on all the reasonably priced sets. Until you step up to the high end sets that have the many small backlights that it goes away. That said, if you have a lot of window's that will be facing the screen I'd shy away from the plasma, they do glare a lot even with the reduced glare coatings on the Panny's. I use thermal curtains that essentially block the light coming in so it's not an issue but your someone who likes daylight coming in all the time I'd go with an LCD or LED if you have the cash.

I've been very happy with my vt50 so far. Sure I get a bit of glare, but it isn't bad and most of my viewing is at night anyways.

I picked up the latest edition of the UK mag 'What TV and Hifi' in a newsagent last night, and they rated the Sony xxHX85x models as their TV of the year.
the first xx would be the size, and from what I can gather, the last x seems to depend on what country/region you are in. So they were rating the 46HX853. 46 beingn the size, and the final 3 seems to be specific to the UK and the freeview channels, because as far as I can tell, continental Europe it's 46HX580.
I'm also in the market for a new TV, so just started my research.
I do currently have a Sony TV, and one thing that isn't great with Sonys is the codec coverage for the USB input when trying to play movie files directly. Apparnelty Samsung and LG are better. Just in case this is important to you!
|Nov 24, 2012, 02:20 AM
Ok, after 1.5 days of use I think I can tell how I like it. I love it. The only thing I thinking chose wrong was the size. I would go with 60" if I was choosing now. But it's still great, 3d is great especially. I have only yet tried it in games and its different. In assassins creed 3 it's awfull. It like 2d pictures on different depth. However in sonic generations, it's really good, I can totally see the shapes. Also, I noticed that if iMovie the head, the farther shapes move in opposite direction, like in real life. Anyway, I like the picture quality, movies look amazing. And the speakers, compared to my old 33" Sony LCD, are a huge improvement.
Thanks to everyone who helped me make the right decision. This TV is great.

Consider a projector
Have you considered a projector?
I recently had to make the decision between a TV or projector and am so glad I went with the projector. The projector has been quietly getting better and better over the years as have televisions.
You'll be able to get as good of an image as you do on a television at screen sizes that will blow your mind (200 inches etc.) - Modern day projectors also are 3D capable - as good or better than televisions and are MUCH better at handling ambient light.
They are also much more power efficient - Epson makes some really nice ones within your budget.
Projector screens are also easy to make or buy - I'm making one out of Blackout fabric - a fairly low cost fabric.
Here's a video I shot on why I prefer projectors:
Best of luck in your search.

I usually go with the largest screen I want to buy that looks good and do not buy into the other add-on stuff. No Wi-fi, no 3D, no smart tv's, I only need a big-HD monitor.
All of the tv's we have that "matter" have surround sound or a sound bar and an Apple TV connected to it, which both combined are cheaper than the mark-up of a "smart-tv".

How much does your gas mileage decline -- and how much does your gas cost rise? -- if you drive at 60 mph rather than 50? How about 70 or 80 mph? Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press asks that question. He says that until last week, nobody had quantified the effect real-world speeds have on fuel economy, despite the fact that most people hit those speeds on the highway every day. New research by the DOE --which works with the EPA to generate window-sticker mileage figures -- should help create models to help drivers figure out the effect higher speeds have on their specific vehicle.And he's got some answers too. He says you should expect a 41% decrease in fuel economy if you're a leadfoot driver who like drivign at...

Two children were found walking down the street alone Wednesday morning shortly after dawn.
A 5 year old, wearing shorts and a T-shirt, grabbed his 2-year-old brother and climbed out a first-story window at about 7 a.m., said Gastonia Police Sgt. Gene Weaver.
The toddler was still in his pajamas.
A woman saw the children walking in the road on Church Street near Garrison Boulevard and called police.
"She held them until we got there," Weaver said.
Officers then went door to door in the neighborhood until they found the children's house.
Four adults were sleeping inside the home.
Weaver said it wasn't exactly clear where the children were headed.
"The 5 year old, I guess, wanted to go on an adventure," Weaver said.
No charges have been filed against the adults.
The children walked about two blocks before being spotted.
This marks the third time in less than a week that Gastonia police have responded to calls of young children walking around unsupervised.
Ultimately parents and guardians are responsible for securing their children's surroundings, Weaver said, though he admits that children can be crafty.
"Kids are kids, and they're going to figure out how to do things," he said.
Neither of the boys was hurt in the incident. In fact, the children got a bite to eat before being returned home.
"It turned out good for them because Officer Amy Hawkins took them to McDonald's," Weaver said.

"Seventy minutes of sheer delight" OPÉRA MAGAZINE
Founded by violinist Johannes Pramsohler, the Ensemble Diderot is renowned for its lively and virtuoso interpretations of 17th– and 18th– Century music, and is rapidly evolving into one of Europe's most ingenious chamber music groups.
Named after the brilliant, versatile and prolific writer of the Enlightenment, Denis Diderot, the Ensemble devotes itself to the performance and research of the trio sonata repertoire in its original and most sonorous combination: two violins, cello and harpsichord.
The Ensemble's distinctive style has been clear since the very beginning: an intense and energetic sound, great accuracy in phrasing and articulation, and the inspired and imaginative use of historical performance practice. All four memebers are specialists in playing period instruments, graduating from leading European colleges.
Striving for excellence in performance and programmming, their often unusual and daring programmes and their intelligent musicianship already resulted in many invitations to festivals in the UK, France, Italy, Spain and Poland.
In 2008 the Ensemble was resident in Amilly (France), supported by 'Les jardins d'agrément'. After an 'Aldeburgh Residency' at Snape Maltings in 2009, the Ensemble was resident at the castle of Frederick II in Rheinsberg/Brandenburg for a whole year, where the group focussed on the specific repertoire of the Prussian court and its connections with France. In 2014 the Ensemble Diderot embarks on a collaboration with Royaumont and a series of residencies, masterclasses and concerts at the Abbey.
The Ensemble's first recording was released in 2014: the first CD of a series entitled 'Ensemble Diderot plays Europe' that takes the group on an adventurous imaginary tour to explore the development of the trio sonata in Europe's cultural capitals of the Baroque era.
