Calibration settings for Samsung UNXXEH5300?

Can anyone provide calibration settings for the 32 inch model or other models in this series? I have searched online and have not been able to find an expert review that includes the settings. CNET reviewed a 6000 series model, but when I use those settings the picture does not look right.

"In addition, our pilot effort focused on educating pulmonologists about Acthar in the treatment of respiratory manifestations of symptomatic sarcoidosis has generated a positive response over the last few months, consistent with our previous pilot detailing efforts in both nephrology and rheumatology. Prescribing activity by pulmonologists has exceeded our expectations since the pilot detailing effort began in February 2014, with approximately 40 to 45 new paid prescriptions shipped by pharmacies in the second quarter. As a result of these encouraging early results, we will be expanding the pulmonology sales force from 7 to 35 Acthar representatives and expect to complete this expansion by January 2015," concluded Mr. Cartt.
Pharmacies filled between 480 and 490 new paid prescriptions for Nephrotic Syndrome (NS) in the quarter, an increase of about 20% compared with the second quarter of 2013 and an increase of 37% sequentially. Net sales resulting from NS prescriptions currently account for approximately one-third of our total Acthar business. During the second quarter, pharmacies filled between 1,350 and 1,360 new paid prescriptions for MS relapse patients as well, representing an increase of about 5% compared with the second quarter of 2013 and an increase of 18% sequentially.

Grilled Summer Squash Salad
If you like it, save it!

Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: I actually picked up this "recipe" from one of the vendors at our local farmer's market. She's always giving little hints and suggestions about how to prepare easy dishes with the produce, meats and breads she sells. This makes a great side dish with grilled fish, chicken or steak. This was super easy, very healthy and even my kids gave it a try! - mamachef
Serves 4-6
- 2 medium sized zucchini/squashes - I use a combination of yellow and green
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
- 2 teaspoons vinegar- i like Champagne but I think Balsamic would be great too
- 2 tablespoons good quality olive oil
- 1-2 teaspoons fresh oregano chopped
- 1-2 teaspoons fresh mint chopped (optional)
- Kosher salt and pepper to taste
- Slice each squash lengthwise. Grill on medium high heat for 2-3 minutes on each side. Allow to cool slightly and then cut into slices. Add garlic, vinegar, oil and herbs and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve warm, at room temperature or even cold the next day.

Bovine Vandals
by AP
posted Jan 30 2013 11:26AM
SOUTHAMPTON, Mass. (AP) - The vandals that damaged a Massachusetts cemetery this week have pleaded "moo."
Police say a small herd of cows knocked over 40 American flags and veterans' bronze grave markers, then snacked on a few flower arrangements, at the Center Cemetery in Southampton on Monday.
Motorists called to report that the cows were loose. Police contacted the owner, Henry Wykowski, who caught and removed the cows from the cemetery.
Chief David Silvernail says the cows are an "ongoing problem," and his department has responded to complaints about the roaming bovines three or four times since last spring.
Cemetery Commission member Robert Floyd tells
The Daily Hampshire Gazette
he plans on asking the farmer to pay for the damage once he comes up with an estimate.

Analysis of Albany in 2014
3:34 pm
Fri June 27, 2014
Albany more in agreement... kind of
A good government group issued an analysis of New York's legislative accomplishments this year and reports that Albany moved a little bit closer toward limiting public debate on major issues.
The New York Public Interest Research Group found that the total number of bills passed by state lawmakers stayed at historically low levels, but at the same time the size of the budget document increased.
New York's budget is notoriously brokered in secret by the governor and legislative leaders.
Researcher Bill Mahoney says what's happening is more and more legislation is being stuffed into the budget in order to make sure lawmakers approve it without public debate.
"That's not a sign that there's a healthy debate in public," he says. "It is a sign that most of what's passing was decided behind closed doors."
Mahoney's analysis shows that the amount of time lawmakers spent debating each bill in public dropped to about two minutes, just enough time to read the name of the bill and call a vote.
Also, the amount of overall opposition to bills dropped while the unanimity of each caucus got even closer to 100 percent agreement with how the leader voted.

Just yesterday we were in southern California, listening to 'Sons of Anarchy' creator Kurt Sutter prepare Comic-Con 2014 attendees for the final ride of season 7, but it seems he left one major announcement off the table. Now, we've learned 'Glee' star Lea Michele will put in an appearance on the final season of FX's biker drama this fall, and no, we're not kidding.
The 2014 Young Hollywood Awards honored this year's most incredible rising talent. See the full winners list here!
Several of Cory Monteith's 'Glee' co-stars are paying tribute to the late actor today on Twitter, as they remember him on the first anniversary of his untimely death.
Is it over between Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez? Are they no longer friends?
That's the big question Lovatics and Selenators have been asking after fans noticed that Lovato unfollowed Gomez on Twitter earlier this week.
Lea Michele's Twitter account caused quite the stir yesterday, as fans thought that she announced that she was pregnant. However, her rep has denied the claim and says that her Twitter account was hacked. This comes on the same day that Chris Colfer's Twitter account was also hacked, where Colfer was falsely attributed to saying that he had been fired from 'GLEE.'
Fresh off the heels of promoting her first book, 'Brunette Ambition,' Lea Michele has revealed some amazing news: she's writing another one!
This week in theaters, two highly different movies arrive: the first, a science-fiction action-adventure; the second, an uplifting story of hope rising against all odds.
Throwback Thursday — or #TBT, as it's commonly referred — has become a social media favorite. The fad caught on like wildfire, and now it's impossible to scroll through Twitter, Instagram or Facebook without seeing friends, family members and our favorite celebrities sharing old school memories.

Posted on my blog, The Comics Cove, not too long ago...
For anyone who reads this blog and happens to still be living under a rock, there happens to be this wildly successful superhero movie called The Avengers, that has broken all kinds of box office records, raised the bar to an insane level for superhero movies, and took Joss Whedon from being a cult favorite to a household name. The sustained level of praise for The Avengers is unprecedent for a film of its kind, and it's won over fans and critics alike with its winning combination of high-octane action, dynamic storytelling, and deft characterizations. It is also, probably unsurprisingly, my favorite film of the year, so far.
Right now, I'd like to talk about a small, almost throwaway, part of the film, though, that has had a noticeable impact on sales for a particular food. Namely: shawarma.
If you're anything like I was, you probably left The Avengers wondering what the heck shawarma was, even after watching the post-credits scene. Google searches for the delectable Arab dish shot up shortly after the film hit the United States, and apparentlysales have receiveda serious bumpdue to its fairlyprominent mention. I had never had it before, and was finally introduced to it this weekend by my girlfriend, who's eaten it many times and was happy to broaden my horizons.
I've since had it again, and have to say, that while the presentation and flavors may vary by individual restaurants, shawarma is so far proving to be very tasty in any iteration. It's a delicious spiced meat preparation (the meats themselves can vary; the preparation of slow-grilling the large hunk of meat and cutting the shavings off the hanging meat are what distinguish it as shawarma), served in a pita with a number of vegetables and sauces. I'm always glad to try something new in the foods realm, and this food is certain to become a staple of my regular dining repertoire.
Amusingly, if not unexpectedly, shawarma has been making other appearances on the Internet. Quite a few of them are taken directly from the post-credits scene in The Avengers, while another amusing iteration has popped up in the Marvel: Avengers Alliance game I'm still obsessively playing. While I can't stock up on it yet due to other considerations (trying to unlock Mockingbird and all the resources that entails), I grabbed a couple of them once they became available and have found them a very useful in-game power-up. I'll be adding as much of it to my stash as soon as possible, once I've taken care of other in-game business.
For anyone who has yet to try this tasty dish, I would highly recommend it. I know a lot of my friends out there will actively avoid trendy topics and things that are popular for the moment, but this is one indulgence you shouldn't avoid. It's highly enjoyable, there's likely more than a few places that serve it nearby, and it's always good to try new foods, if only to be sure you don't like them. I highly doubt that will be the case here.
Anyway, you've read this far. Here's a small reward: me, eating shawarma, looking exhausted, in a lame impression of the heroes at the end of The Avengers. Enjoy, and feel free to laugh at my expense.

PORTLAND -- A North Portland family said they lost five dogs and one cat to an early morning house fire Thursday. None of the other family members was injured, but a firefighter became disoriented and had to be pulled from the home.
Just after midnight neighbors reported seeing heavy smoke pouring from a home near the 8000 block of North Hudson Avenue.
When I came out to the corner, there was smoke coming out of the front door area and then out of the back of the house, said neighbor Karrie Dunn. I didn't see any flames until the firefighters arrived and broke out some windows.
Two teens live in the home. They told KGW that one of them jumped from a window to safety, while the other helped get his great-grandmother and grandmother to safety.
When firefighters arrived, they found the fire in the basement and started dragging hoses into the home.
Portland Fire & Rescue officials reported that a firefighter became disoriented between the heavy smoke and extreme heat and could not find the staircase to exit. A Rescue Intervention Team went into the home and pulled the firefighter to safety.
Family members said they lost everything to the fire. They were being assisted by the Red Cross.

I purchased this lipstick today because I wanted a new shade. My friend recommended Revlon and I read other positive reviews about Super Lustrous lipstick. Primrose is the perfect color for me. Because my lips aren't as full as they used to be, darker shades don't look good on me. Primrose is a lighter pink that isn't overly obvious but gives a nice color to brighten my face. It goes on smoothly and lasts a decent amount of time.

Definatly my everyday go to pink! I adore this pink colour, it has slight lavender undertones, which is gorgeous!
Doesn't bother me that I have to re-apply during the day. I really hope they don't discontinue this colour! Otherwise i'll defs be stocking up.

This is my favorite lipstick of all time,every time I wear it I just love how it looks with my fair skin and it makes me feel super girly :) It is the perfect pink for me it's not really a nude which I normally wear but I wear this to school (I dont put on a lot) and I feel so much better wearing it. I would say it can be build up to a really bright colour but you don't need to apply that much to get the perfect look. It kind of has some lavender undertones way more pink but i have noticed in certain lighting it looks a little lavender. I WEAR THIS ALL YEAR ROUND!! who cares It definitely is a summer colour but i would wear it all year round. This does not stay on all day so you may need to re apply. Goes on super easy and creamy!
-pink colour
-creamy formula
-perfect on fair skintones
-brighter pink but still a but neutral
-buildup colour can apply more shear
-lavender undertones (not too purple)
-does not last all day
-may look a little bright

Luv Luv Luv this color HG status for me, such a creamy soft light muted pink without being old ladyish. depending on your choice of lipliner this lipstick can look soo many different ways, stays creamy wont dry out your lips re-applys great even after a long day (eating,smoking,etc) . I really hope they aren't discontinuing this color like they did Pink Pout, Its been extremely hard to find lately, i thought it was sold out but i realized this color isnt even listed on some of the displays anymore :( , i did manage to find at CVS or walgreens for 12.99 ( wayyyy to much) but not much luck elsewhere. Anywhoo ill always love this color.

Best dupe Ive found for MAC's snob. Its a creamyy pink with a lot of cool lavender undertones. It can be a little tricky for in between skin shades to pull off; because it can look chalky. But for either extremes-super fair or darker complexions it will be a good alternative for purples in the spring.

This is a really pretty light pink with cool undertones. Unfortunately, I have to constantly reapply it, so I will not buy this again.

It's a shot at the Hawks this time.
I am happy for Lebron, would have never said it a year ago. It just feels right, him being home :). The team chemistry of the Cavs surprises me.
As bad as they played AT HOME in the playoffs, I thought for a while that was the Falcons.

The Dark Tower Series by far for me
The Stand. I also liked Misery; that was one of his scariest books.
The Shining and IT are my 2 favorites, The Shining especially. Absolutely scary book. I also liked Different Seasons. It's a series of short stories including 'Shawshank Redemption.'
Good stuff.

Flying finish
Last updated at 09:05, Monday, 01 October 2012
A FLYPAST from an historic Vulcan Bomber failed to distract Ponteland from their job in hand as they defeated Seaton Burn.
As the plane flew low over the ground , the home side kept their concentration and signed off with a victory sign.
Ponteland set an imposing target which Seaton were unable to match. Pont never looked back as they claimed third spot in the league.
Ponteland opener Wayne Ritzema finished as the A2 Division's leading run scorer, while Pont II's James Ealey was top in the B1 charts.
