"Historic Citadel" Citadelle de Quebec Tip by tvor
Citadelle de Quebec, Quebec: 25 reviews and 62 photos
The Citadel type of defence system was designed by a Frenchman. This fort in Quebec City was built by the British military and has been occupied by the military ever since. Currently it is the home of the 22nd Regiment of the Royal Canadian Regiment, or "Van Doos" which comes from the French for 22, "Vingt-Deux".
According to the official website "La Citadelle comprises two buildings constructed under the French regime, the only real gate into Old Quebec City, the official residence of the Royal 22e R�giment, the Royal 22e R�giment Museum and the residence of the Governor General of Canada, among others."
They have a changing of the guard ceremony in the summer though we were visiting too early in the season for it. We visited on an overcast misty day in May but were lucky to get a time when there were only a handful of people wanting the walking tour. Our guide, Charles, was very knowledgable as he led us around the buildings, explaining the history of the fort. the tours are said to take an hour but ours lasted longer as there were only 8 of us and it was not a busy time of year so Charles took his time and allowed us to linger in the museums longer.
There are two museums we were able to visit, one a more general museum to do with the fort and Quebec itself and the other is the 22nd Regiment museum. There's a regimental chapel as well but it's not open to the public though is still used. The views over the St. Lawrence, over the city dominated by the old Chateau Frontenac hotel and over the parks built on the battlegrounds of the Plains of Abraham were shrouded in mist and fog for us but the views would be spectacular on a sunny day.
The more general museum is in a 300 year old magazine battery with its thick stone walls protecting against a blast. There are dioramas and memorabilia covering several hundred years of Quebec history.
The 22nd Regimental museum is housed in a building that used to be a jail. You can see one cell still set up. In the other cells are various exhibits about the history of the 22nd. There are archives, uniforms, memorabilia, medals (including one whole room lined with cases of medals). A current exhibition in one of the rooms shows items taken from the 21st century Afghanistan tour of duty. There is also a WWI Victoria Cross, the highest military honour given. With the 100th anniversary of the regiment due in 2014, there is a major upgrading and updating of the museum planned.
There's a small gift shop and very basic cafe in the entrance building. Photography without a flash is permitted in the museums.
Open all year round, it costs 10$ per adult with discounts for children, seniors and has group rates. There's some parking available and they do English and French tours which are included in the cost of admission as well. Not all of the grounds is mobility accessible.
There's a travelogue here as well with additional photos

Ok in a status list ten books that have stayed with you in some sort of way. There are no right or wrong answers. Then ask ten of your friends to do the same and see what their books are! I usually don't do these but I have tagged some people I that I would really like to see their lists: My books are: 1. The Bible 2. The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas, père 3. America's Godly Heritage - David Barton/WallBuilders 4. The Autobiography of Julia Ward Howe 5. Freedom's Frame - Rick Green 6. Going Rogue - Sarah Palin 7. Refined by Fire - Brian Birdwell 8.

When people (read as Saratchandra Kasivajjala and Archana Jayaraman) tag you to list 10 books that you have read and keep with you, you know you are in trouble. Listing just 10 seems difficult. But not impossible. So, here goes: 1. Sandman (the graphic novel series) by Neil Gaiman (at the top of any list as far as I am concerned) 2. Poetry - Percy Bryce Shelley, Emily Dickinson, Keats, Khalil Gibran 3. Works of Shakespeare (sigh! Remembering those days when I declared I would only love a man who got Shakespeare, naïveté - thy name is youth) 4. Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan (the required fantasy series for every fantasy addict) 5. Books by Georgette Heyer (the required regency romance and humour series for any woman) 6. The Collected Short Stories of Roald Dahl 7. Erle Stanley Gardner - Perry Mason rocks!(even when the reader is in her thirties) 8. Books by P.G. Wodehouse - Who can leave Jeeves behind? 9. Classics - Jane Austen, the Bronte sisters, Somerset Maugham, Alexandre Dumas. 10. The last ...

My Picks for Turner Classic Movies for August Turner seems to have set up a streaming facility so that you can stream any film more than a day but less than a week after it showed up on TCM. Actually I would have preferred they set it up with completely different movies. But it could be a useful feature. Anyway, another month is coming. It is time to pick the films I recommend on Turner Classic Movies. TCM is showing half of what I think would be an ideal double feature. I am not sure what is going on in their minds that they did not take an evening and have the complete Three Musketeers and FOUR MUSKETEERS, particularly in this day of binge watching. All times are Eastern Daylight Saving Time. THE Three Musketeers (1973) The IMDB lists ten screen versions of Alexandre Dumas's THE Three Musketeers. I know of nobody who seriously contests that the best version is the 1973 version directed by Richard Lester and starring--get this--Michael York, Richard Chamberlain, Oliver Reed, Faye Dunaway, Charlton Heston ...

Without exception, the response to the Post-Gutenberg Revolution, by traditional publishers and the major chain bookstores, as well as most of the independents, has been to cry foul and seek ways to circle the wagons, attempting to close off all the more to the change that they are indisputably incapable of controlling.

Through the years, many great writers and philosophers have attempted to define love. Regrettably, none of them have been able to fully explain what love really is. However, many of them have succeeded in illustrating certain aspects of love. This compilation includes 16 great love quotes by famous writers and poets like Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Victor Hugo, & Voltaire. "The first symptom of love in a young man is shyness; the first symptom in a young woman is boldness." Victor Hugo "Love is a promise; love is a souvenir; once given, it is never forgotten; never let it disappear." John Lennon "When you fish for love, bait with your heart and not with your brain." Mark Twain "Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, and penetrates walls to arrive at its destination." Maya Angelou "Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; and therefore is winged Cupid painted blind." Williams Shakespeare "True love always makes a man better, no matter what woman inspires it". Alexandre Dumas "Lov ...

Alexandre Dumas: Greatest French writer was of… African descent Alexandre Dumas (source: Wikipedia) Alexandre Dumas (source: Wikipedia) Dear All, I was so surprised when I learned that Alexandre Dumas, yes… the writer of the "Three Musketeers" was just recently (2002) indicted into the Pantheon of Paris, you know… the place where the remains of the most famous/distinguished French citizens are buried. I wondered why?… because the Three Musketeers is the most acclaimed French book adapted to screen, movies, and theater. I wondered why?… because The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo are among the most read books by a French author in the world… why only in 2002, 132 years after his death? when Victor Hugo had been indicted in 1885? why since Rousseau, Voltaire, Emile Zola, had all been indicted, while the most read French author, Alexandre Dumas' remains were not? Well… you've guessed it right: Alexandre Dumas was Black! Yes… the great French writer was just like the Rus ...

"Wine. The intellectual part of the meal." -Alexandre Dumas
finally finished reading my first true classic literature. Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo. in my opinion absolutly beautiful ending.
The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas - "An evergreen classic with a medieval European touch" A Must read book for book lovers. Thrown in prison for a crime he has not committed, Edmond Dantès is confined to the grim fortress of If. There he learns of a great hoard of treasure hidden on the Isle of Monte Cristo and he becomes determined not only to escape, but also to unearth the treasure and use it to plot the destruction of the three men responsible for his incarceration. Dumas' epic tale of suffering and retribution, inspired by a real-life case of wrongful imprisonment, was a huge popular success when it was first serialised in the 1840s.
On this day in literary history: A 23-year-old Alexandre Dumas fought his first duel in 1825. Aand his pants fell down. Hopefully the Musketeer author's next duel was less embarrassing.
This date in the arts: - Jan. 5, 1825 - 23-year-old Alexandre Dumas (Sr.) embarked on his self-proclaimed "career as a romantic" by fighting his first duel, and having his pants fall down. Dumas's memoirs are about as reliable as his mountain of historical fiction and drama, but they tell the pants story in glorious, comedy-of-errors, "Three Musketeers" detail. - Jan. 5, 1948 - Warner Brothers-Pathe showed the very first color newsreel. The footage was of the Tournament of Roses Parade and the Rose Bowl football classic. - Jan. 5, 1961 - "Mr. Ed" debuted. The show would run for six years. - Jan. 5, 1998 - U.S. Representative Sonny Bono died in skiing accident.

the first black general in the French army under Napoleon, Thomas-Alexandre Dumas, was the father of Alexandre Dumas, the author of 'The Three Musketeers' and 'The Count of Monte Cristo'.
Jules Verne The traveler who never leaves his cabinet – that's what his contemporaries used to call Jules Verne. He was a person with an extraordinary lust for life whose fantasy had no limits – often hailed as the father of science fiction, he literally taught us how to dream. Verne began writing in earnest when at the Sorbonne, where he was supposed to be studying law. His father was horrified but, encouraged by Alexandre Dumas and Victor Hugo, Verne went on to write some of the most popular and most translated books of all time. Blurring the lines between imagination and reality, 'Great Dreamers' is a series of programs devoted to outstanding thinkers, pioneers and path breakers in science and the arts, whose daring ideas and inventions would become landmarks in our history.

INDIA'S MAN IN THE IRON MASK, As with the legendary hero of the Alexandre Dumas novel, his greatness made Subhas Chandra Bose a threat to his rivals leading to his exile and erasure from history books. NS Rajaram looks at the mystery surrounding Netaji's life In the novel Vicomte de Bragelonne by the French writer Alexandre Dumas, an innocent man is imprisoned for life and his identity sealed behind an iron mask which cannot be removed. The reason? He happens to be the twin brother of King Louis IV, then ruling France, and might have proved a better and more popular ruler. Alert to the threat he posed, Louis had him exiled for life with his identity concealed forever behind an iron mask. When the details of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's disappearance and exile become fully known, we may find a surreal similarity between Eustache Dauger, one of the names of the masked man, and Bose. For a man so famous — he was the most popular Indian leader at the time of Indian independence — surprisingly little ...

Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes.

Then the fates will know you as we know you: as Albert Mondego, the man! - Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo
Georgia- Tbilisi Have you been to a city where you can find Georgian Orthodox, Armenian Gregorian and Roman Catholic churches, a synagogue, a mosque and a Zoroastrian temp le all within a 5-minute walk of each other? Then you should definitely come to Georgia and visit our capital Tbilisi – a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, multi-religious city on the crossroads of history, a city neither European nor Asian but a heady blend of both East and West.Tbilisi was founded in the 5th century AD and has attracted visitors ever since, drawn by the hot springs for which the city is named, by the lively atmosphere of its cobbled streets and caravanserais or simply by what Alexandre Dumas called the "strange, fascinating charm" of this "city of legend and romance." Tbilisi – the City of Hot Springs King Vakhtang Gorgasali (AD 446-502) went hunting one day around the territory of today's Tbilisi which was then covered with a dense forest. The King wounded a pheasant and sent his falcon in pursuit. After th ...

According to family lore, my potty training was accomplished by stacking a pile of books in the bathroom, so in the beginning I cut my teeth on Dr. Seuss. But then I soon moved on to the Nancy Drew series that were ghost written by several different authors under the pseudonym Carolyn Keene. From there my love of mysteries grew and I moved up to Agatha Christie, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Martha Grimes. In school, my love for literature was ignited with the likes of Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, Shakespeare, the Bronte sisters, Jane Austen, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Robert Browning, William Wordsworth, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Alexandre Dumas, Lord Alfred Tennyson, and Edgar Allan Poe. Yet that is only a condensed list. At the same time as I was learning great literature I was also discovering the excitement of science fiction. While Jules Verne and H.G. Wells are legends in their own right, for me, the two greatest names of that genre shall and always be, Isaac Asimov and Frank Herbert. The Foundat ...

Spin them faster Alex! In case you're coming up short, the theme is girls so small you can spin them on your dick. (Girls are introduced along with their vertical measurements.) They're hot and the sex covers all the bases from oral to anal with a few strong facial shots. Some time spent showing the viewer how small the girls are -- rather than putting them in six inch heels -- would tie everything together.

Almost exactly five years ago today, I lived in Naperville, Illinois, dated a boy from Nashville and had a little two-year-old blog where I talked about a grass-fed pot roast. I had made the recipe a total of four times in some of the last four weeks of 2010, apparently, each time following the exact same, hour-by-hour, almost superstitious method of low and slow cooking in red wine with mushrooms, onions, celery and garlic. You could call it a rain dance or Magic 8 Ball kind of recipe, in that you start the pot at one temperature, add mushrooms an hour later, raise the temperature an hour after that and then lower the temperature back to its original setting for the final 60 minutes, crossing your fingers and throwing salt over your shoulder, okay, just kidding about those last parts, but really where did I come up with this set of instructions! I read the original post like I am opening a time capsule buried in the backyard, remembering the me of back then even as I sit here and keep … [Read more...]
Italian-Style Beans and Greens Soup
We've long liked ALDI for its cheap avocados and $0.33 winter grapefruit, but now there's a growing number of organic options available, too. Recently tasked by ALDI and Bon Appetit to come up with a recipe that serves four for under $10 total (and adding our own personal challenge of sticking to mostly organic as we did), here's the wonderful, warming, peasant Italian-style soup result. I've said this on the blog before, but ask Tim his favorite kind of food and he'll say peasant-style Italian. Simple Italian. Classic Italian. The kind of food that our great-grandmothers would have been making back in the old country. From homemade pasta to rustic soups, give my man a meal that celebrates the original flavors of things like tomatoes and greens, especially with a nice olive oil and garlic base, and he's happy. And as is often the case when someone truly likes something and then shares it with you, he's won me over 100 percent. I tell you that to explain why, when we were given … [Read more...]
Tim's Italian Meatballs with Red Sauce and Roasted Vegetables
When Tim and I met, we instantly shared this history of having moms who liked cooking because they had moms who liked cooking. We grew up in homes where our families got super jazzed about dinner and would build holidays around what to eat and where. I know there a lot of people like this, probably a lot of the people who read food blogs included, so hi, but I guess there are also a lot of people not like this. Over the last few weeks, we've been talking a lot about it, our parallel history of loving food, of being loved by people through food. My Italian grandma died sixteen years ago and was part of the reason I later started this site; Tim's Italian grandma, a sweet, smiling woman who was also from Chicago, died this last month. It's such a great thing to have an Italian grandma who makes homemade sauce from the tomatoes in her garden and who always has food on hand that she'll offer you when you come by. It's such a great thing, it's almost trite to talk about it. A grandma or a … [Read more...]
My Favorite Kale Salad
Last night, Tim, Rocco and I returned home after a full week away, driving first to Ohio and then to Chicago to see family, celebrate my birthday and give Rocco his first experience with a real road trip. Our boy was born into a family that has to travel to see its family, so we figured he may as well start learning what that's like now, in the early days, when he's all of just two months old. The way there was broken up by a night in Ohio, at Tim's sister's house, where we ate perfectly grilled chicken and decadent chocolate mousse cake alongside Italian-style green beans and quinoa salad. In Chicago, my mom made my favorite lemon chicken and my brother baked me chocolate birthday cake, and there were a lot of days of Three Twins ice cream. I don't think I exerted more effort than scooping prepared food onto my plate the whole vacation, so you can imagine what a luxury that was. And even on our epic 10-hour trip home yesterday (because, new parent lesson!, road trips get longer when … [Read more...]
Spicy Peanut Kale Bowls + Shoestring Sweet Potato Fries
Around here lately, while Tim has been replacing stair treads, putting up walls, painting the basement, swapping out bedroom doors and otherwise working on this house we're hoping to finish, I've been in charge of keeping us both fed. This is an unusual arrangement for us, me in the kitchen and him elsewhere, and it's made me realize how thankful I am to usually be working with him at the sink or stove, side by side. It's also made me realize, with not a little surprise and maybe terror, that I have a goooood appetite these days. People keep asking me if I'm having pregnancy cravings, and I guess I don't know. Can I blame the second trimester or should I just be real and admit I've always been a fan of Let's Try This New Recipe, which is much easier to make happen when it's just me alone at the fridge. If you're following along with us on Facebook, you're getting a regular diet of This Was a Good One posts, and I hope you're enjoying it as much as I am, because with the exception of a … [Read more...]
garlic ginger vegetarian tacos with sweet and spicy cabbage slaw
Recap of this past week: Monday morning we found out we're having a boy (!), Tuesday we found out my computer's hard drive might be broken (!), Wednesday we found out it was just the cable that goes to the hard drive (!) and today we found a fresh bin of organic fruits and vegetables delivered to our front door. That's life, isn't it, filled with surprises that delight us, discourage us and change our schedules sufficiently to remind us we're not in control, a theme I keep coming back to this year. Right now, I'm mostly feeling the blessing it is to get to see that I don't run the universe (or the way a day goes or even how happy and healthy this little guy inside me seems to be doing so far) as well as thankful for the miniature moments that surprise me in the midst of life, like a Wednesday warm enough to take off my jacket or the way nothing makes a girl feel richer than a table filled with fresh food to eat. The green bin came from the new-to-Nashville Green Bean Delivery … [Read more...]
Crispy Roasted Turmeric Potatoes
Something about hospitals always leaves me craving green juice and salads and reading articles about foods with the most nutrients, so, after a chunk of days hanging in heart hospital rooms, maybe that's why I've been all about the turmeric powder lately: turmeric tea, turmeric chicken, turmeric added to the smoothies we make as fast meals. Turmeric, in my mind, equals anti-inflammatory, and anti-inflammatory equals good for fighting everything from cancer to heart disease to auto-immune conditions. It's the curcumin, the thing in turmeric that makes it yellow, that is said to make it so powerful for digestion, immunity, joints, cholesterol and more. (The curcumin also makes turmeric a great natural yellow food coloring, albeit with a slightly bitter taste, which is why we used it in some tricolor Christmas cookies a few years ago.) Basically, I'm telling you I'm jazzed about turmeric, particularly in these crispy golden turmeric potatoes, even as I'm thinking about loved ones who are … [Read more...]
Green Healing Soup
Tim and I were both a little under the weather this past week, something I always forget how much I hate until it happens. This was the first time we've ever had colds together, at least anything that didn't go away in a day, and whether it was holiday traveling, my weaker pregnant immune system or just a trickier virus that caused it, we've been using every natural remedy possible to knock it out fast. Case in point: this green-loaded, hearty, healing puréed soup. When Tim first told me everything that was going into it, I braced myself for the kind of soup I'd have to hold my nose to eat (kind of like this crazy powerful immunity booster that, yes, I also took sometime on Tuesday), so when I sipped the first bite and met instead ginger, cumin and a slight kick of heat, I was thrilled. We had it for dinner several nights in a row until the entire pot was gone, and then today we whipped up a fresh batch so I could share it with you. Hey, Hey, PS! If you're going to be in … [Read more...]

Outsourcing International Criminal Justice: Norway Fills in for Rwanda Tribunal
I haven't been following the ICTR, but it is apparently seriously backlogged and it must finish up by 2008. So this move makes some practical sense. Choosing Norway makes somewhat less sense. The obvious place to try Mr. Bagaragaza is Rwanda, but the ICTR won't turn him over unless Rwanda pledges not to impose the death penalty. I applaud the high principles of the ICTR, but the maximum under Norwegian law is only 21 years. That seems way too low for someone convicted of mass genocide.

After originally committing to the University of Louisville in June of 2011, Kyvin Goodin-Rogers and Makayla Epps both rescinded their commitments to the university last month. Now, both of them have made verbal commitments to the University of Kentucky.
Epps visited the University of Kentucky Monday in hopes of helping her make a college choice. Apparently, that did the trick.
When asked about her verbal commitment to UK, Epps answered with a rhyme.
The Lebanon Country Club held its annual club championship event Aug. 11-12. Patterson "Woody" Clements took home the championship while Joey Reed took the runner-up spot, according to Vicki Spalding, pro shop manager.
In the second flight, Chad "Little Beno" Spalding took home first place while Beno Spalding got runner-up.
Mike Jaglowicz won the third flight and Doug Vyverberg took second place. Steve Divine won the fourth flight and Chipper Moore was runner-up. Eddie Mattingly won the fifth flight and Sid Gordon took home second place.
Last week I told you about this year's hunter education (orange card) class being held at the Sportsman's Club outside Calvary. I told you about it running from 6-9 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, then 8 a.m. till noon on Saturday. Where I messed up was on the dates. Instead of being Sept. 7 thru 9, it's Sept. 6 thru 8. That's Sept. 6 and 7, 6-9 p.m., and Saturday, Sept. 8 will be from 8 a.m. till noon.
Both the Marion County High School boys and girls soccer teams each had rough weeks, and neither found wins. The Knights entered the week with a 3-0 record, but now sit at 3-3. The Lady Knights are still searching for their first win after a pair of losses last week.
The Marion County Lady Knights volleyball team had three matches this past week, taking on Green County, Bethlehem and Boyle County. The Lady Knights lost two out of three matches, only defeating Boyle County on the week. The team's overall record now stands at 5-3, with their district record at 2-0.
Brooklynn Bell placed fourth in the Masters Division at the All American Soap Box Derby Nationals in Akron, Ohio. She is a third-generation racer at the Nationals in Akron, Ohio. Savannah Bell also competed in the All American Soap Box Derby, which was her second time competing.
A special promotional issue of The Lebanon Enterprise will be sent to all homes in Marion County today. The complimentary issue to non-subscribers is made possible by Spring View Hospital and Citizens National Bank.
A special advertisement on page B3 gives readers a chance to subscribe to the Enterprise for eight months for $20. The subscription special applies to new subscribers in Marion and surrounding counties only.
Mention Marion County anywhere in the state and you'll get a couple of similar responses. That they have been here and had a great time and the people were super friendly OR that they visited one of our distilleries and again, the people were super friendly. Sounds as though we are remembered for two things, good spirits and hospitality! The 2012 Marion County Country Ham Days theme reminds us of just that, The Crossroads of Good Spirits and Hospitality.
A majority of the Marion County Fiscal Court voted in favor of hiring a lobbyist in Frankfort with a few conditions. The court wants to cap its expenses at $10,000 for a year and require the lobbyist to make monthly reports to the court.
The court voted 4-1 in favor of hiring the lobbyist, with the intent to split the cost with the Lebanon City Council. The city council has not yet taken action on the idea.
With tears in her eyes and handcuffs on her wrists, she says "I love you."
Her family responds, "We love you, Tonya," as she is escorted by a security officer to the Taylor County Detention Center. And now, she will wait in her cell until she finds out how long she will spend in prison.
Just minutes after being found guilty of murdering her husband, Tonya Ford huddled with her family members in a private room as they cried together.

Is there a noun form of the word "archaic"? The closest word I can think of is "old-fashionedness" but it seems rather clumsy.

Maybe archaism
New is to novelty as archaic is to antiquity.
"New" is to "novelty" as "archaic" is to passé
There are two uses of the word novelty. One is for an intangible characteristic of something, and the other is for the thing itself. Your suggested answer of "old-fashiondness" suggests you're thinking of the first usage.
In that case, I'd suggest quaintness. From dictionary.com we have
with quaintness as a derived form.
However, I believe that UK and American usage of quaint may be different. I'm answering from an American perspective.

You'd certainly think that. As I said Mythbusters did it and it made a massive difference. It's not a slight advantage it actually ends up doubling your chances. It certainly hurts my brain thinking about why it works though.
I do think I understand it but somewhere inside I still don't quite believe it works.

42 reviews | 4.2 out of 5
Pros: Great price for my bedroom size tv. Great picture for TV programs, or dvd movies. Has settings for sports,movies,standard tv watching, and memory setting of your own choosing. Sound is great for this aging senior with some hearing loss. Can hear great with sound on 20 out of 50 setting. DVD movies look terrific. Cons: Wish it had a headphone adapter. Yes, I gave it a 5 star for features anyway. For everything else, I can do without the headphone jack. This is just a great TV. So, I will just address the other reviewers who had some issues. Yes, the plug that goes into the tv is a vertical insert and is just silly the way they made it The plug on mine doesn't fall out if you make sure it is pushed in correctly. If you can't hear the sound over other noises, like children playing, did you really expect to? Finally, if the tv or dvd doesn't work, exchange it for another at the store. I know we all hate to return items or exchage them, but lets face it. Just like a car, there is always a chance you got a lemon. That doesn't mean all tv's of that brand are lemons.
Just hooked it up today. For the money, it's a great TV. Picture is sharp even w/out HD programming. Front facing speakers really help the sound quality compared to other models with bottom or rear facing speakers. Plenty of audio video controls for color and sound. Placed this in a 12 x 13 spare room in the house being used as an office/"dad's space" and the 26" is perfect for the room. Almost opted for a 32" but I'm glad I didn't. Anything bigger than the 26" in a room that size would've been overkill IMO.
Can't go wrong with this one. I'm going back next week to pick up another one for the bedroom. It currently has a 19 or 20 flat screen which gets moved to the kitchen. After that we'll need to look at the great room.......It needs a good upgrade as well!
I love my TV. It has a perfect picture and great sound quality. It has been used functionally with a Wii and various DVDs. Nothing wrong with the DVD portion. I literally made everyone who saw it jealous that they didn't have one. For a TV this large, it was a really good price as well. Only problem: it takes a second to change through the channels. I would love it to change instantaneously, but that's not reality with this set.
Chose this tv because it had the built in DVD player. There was one tv cheaper I was considering, but after reading the reviews on it, decided on this one. I am using this in one of my children's rooms. The size is perfect. The speakers are on the front of the tv and are good quality. The DVD player could not be easier to use. Just put in the DVD and it turns on and plays. To go back to TV, just hit the TV/DVD button. It could not be simpler. I have the TV on top of a chest of drawers. The one con is if you look at the TV from a low position, like on the floor--which my kids do sometimes. The screen darkens if you do not look at it straight on. But this is manageable as they watch it from the bed and the color and picture are great.
Received this TV very quickly. I had ordered it while out of town on business and it arrived before I did. This was an easy setup as my wife and teenagers were able to get it setup in a matter of minutes. Very good picture and great value with the built in DVD player We have been able to play every DVD we have tried and we have a lot of home made DVDs. Both +R and -R versions work with no problems.
Main purpose is to use in the bedroom. Great product. Easy to use, Does what it's supposed to do.
i think this tv is very nice the picture is very clear the color is very very good the dvd is very easy to work ..great tv .
This tv/dvd combo performs quite well. It has a good picture that can be adjusted to fit individual taste. The DVD player works quite well and will play every kind of Dvd that I feed into it including the DVDs that I recorded on a DVD recorder. So far I have played DVD-R, DVD+R and DVD-RW discs and all are playable.
I have always loved Sanyo and had good experience with them. This is no exception. The picture and sound are very good and for a 720p I was surprised at how good the picture is. Good buy and great TV.
Overall this is a pretty nice tv. My biggest disappointment was that the sound isn't very loud. If you are around a lot of people or playing children, you may have a hard time hearing the volume. Sometimes the picture is a little dark, but not bad. One minor thing the tv doesn't have a clock so you can't set the tv to wake you up instead of using a alarm clock. Pretty good tv. Doesn't have all of the bells and whistles, but good for the price.
OK, I have only owned this TV for a few hours, but so far it's great. Set-up was amazingly quick. Literally, I had the TV up and running within minutes. With an indoor antenna, I picked up fourteen channels, some of them in HD. The DVD player worked without a cinch. The owner's manual is written in good English and is very detailed. Overall, Sanyo has come through beyond my expectations.
This TV is great for the bedroom, the size does not take too much space and the DVD combo is really worth it. I recommend it!
I've had this tv for about 5 years. I was very pleased initially but paid almost $700 for it so was really bummed when after a few years it developed a green line down the right side of the screen. Now it has a loud buzzing sound when I turn it on too. I guess tvs just aren't made to last very long these days. For the going price these days it is an ok tv. Picture is good, sound is ok as long as you don't turn it up too high. I actually bought a 32" a couple of years ago and the sound for that one is so bad that I had to get a sound bar for it. When you turn it up past 1/2 the vibration is louder than the actual tv sound. For the money I guess it is as good as any of the other comparable tvs out there. I've read a lot of reviews lately as I am looking to buy a 24 inch lcd tv for my son's room (for gaming) and I have narrowed it down to either the Vizio or the RCA which is not what I expected. Do your homework because a lot of the products that used to have great reputations have gone down hill. I used to swear by Sony, Samsung and Kodak but their products are not worth the money any more as far as I can tell. More expensive is not always better. Hope this helps.
I haven't watched it much, its in the guest room but my friend watches it and says its fine other than the glare thing when looking up at the screen from floor position but you're going to have that with all tv's pretty much. The one I have in my room does it too.
We have owned ours for about a year and about to purchase 2 more just like it, for our kids rooms. Great picture quality and great price. Definitely recommends this product.
I don't have much space in my room for a TV stand so I figured buying a wall mount and a DVD/CD combo would be fantastic for the space I had to work with. The TV looks nice, is light weight, and fit perfectly on the wall mount. However, the TV did NOT work at all. The cord barely stays in the hole it's supposed to be plugged in to. The DVD's go in.. and make this nasty grinding sound and then pop out. I tried to put the DVD in both ways just to make sure I wasn't doing anything wrong and... STILL it doesn't work. I'm very disappointed because this looked like it would have been a great TV for my bedroom, but unfortunately I will be returning this TV and don't think I'll be going with this brand again. Also, If you have the space for a separate DVD player I would recommend you get one of those before purchasing a DVD/CD combo. I hope this review was helpful!
We bought this tv to put on our baby's room. I was convinced by the reviews I read about this tv is why I bought it but the picture quality of this is not what I've expected, it is kind of blurry. The sound quality is not that good but it doesn't bother us coz we only set it on low volume. I am giving 5 on features because it meets my expectation of the dvd combo on it. We have different brand of tv/dvd combo in our bedroom and that is a really all 5 stars for me. Unfortunately, I didn't see it Walmart online so I tried this Sanyo brand.
We bought this tv as a replacement for our tv/dvd combo that, unfortunately, blew up and were EXTREMELY disappointed with this Sanyo. The sound quality is horrible! It's like trying to listen to someone talking through a tin can. Also, the sound the dvd player makes as you're loading a disk had me praying that the thing wouldn't get eaten. Like I said, we were extremely disappointed.
Nice TV, but first DVD I put in it got stuck and never came out again. Had to take the TV back to Wal-mart and picked out a new one - without a DVD player already integrated in the TV. I would not reccommend the TV/DVD combo TVs
I bought a Sanyo TV 5 years ago, one year ago the picture started to go out, this year the picture went out completely. The repairman wanted $120.00 to replace the powerboard; I declined; told him I could buy a new TV for a $100.00 more.
Don't waste your money on Sanyo!
By contrast I have a 25 year old Goldstar TV that still works great.

I am a new WordPress user. I installed version 3.0 on Ubuntu 10.4. I wanted to change my permalinks. The links on the generated html documents look correct and when I edit a document, the permalink also is proposed correctly. However, when clicking on a link, I get a 404 - not found message, issued by apache2.
I read about issues with previous content. Hence, I created a new entry. Unfortunately, I get the same behavior.
Then, I changed back to the default permalink (http://site.com?p=123). As a result, all entries, independent under which permalink-setting they were created, are working as expected.
Is this a bug in 3.0?
