New London — Weeks of acrimony between Lawrence + Memorial Hospital and the union representing about 800 nurses and technicians came to a sudden resolution Friday, when both sides announced a tentative agreement on a new contract and a federal labor law dispute.
A ratification vote on the agreement, which would cover the AFT Connecticut bargaining units for registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and technicians, will take place from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday. The hospital and the union scheduled a joint news conference for 6:30 p.m. Monday to announce the results.
Both sides agreed not to discuss details of the contract or the steps that led to the tentative agreement with the media until the news conference.
"We'll talk then about how we got to this point," hospital spokesman Mike O'Farrell said Friday afternoon. "The agreement encompasses both the issues before the NLRB (National Labor Relations Board) and the collective bargaining agreement."
Nurses and technicians reached Friday afternoon said they are eager to find out the details.
"I'm excited, but I'm anxious to find out what it actually entails," said one technician, who asked to remain anonymous. She said the union and L+M invited staff to meetings over the weekend to learn about the agreement.
The tentative deal was announced after six weeks of near-silence on the contract impasse following the end of the three-week lockout of nurses and technicians on Dec. 18. The lockout came after a four-day strike by workers.
Leading up to and during the strike and lockout, both sides engaged in charged rhetoric. Media outlets and Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and other state officials kept the public's attention on the dispute. It was the first strike and lockout in the history of the 101-year-old nonprofit hospital, the largest in southeastern Connecticut, and the first hospital strike in Connecticut in more than 25 years. During the lockout, L+M continued to operate with replacement nurses and technicians.
The agreement came as the third week of a hearing at the NLRB offices in Hartford ended. The central issue in both the hearing and the contract dispute was the union's contention that the hospital was violating labor law by eliminating union jobs in the process of relocating hospital-based outpatient services to affiliated nonunion physician practices in the community. The union was seeking "follow the work" protections in the new contract so that union workers could keep their jobs in any services transferred in the future.
Last week, Raymond Green, the administrative law judge in the NLRB case, urged L+M and the union to settle the case. He indicated that he would support an agreement pertaining to possible contract violations involving seven union workers who lost their jobs when the obstetrics and gynecology and outpatient mental health clinics were moved out of the hospital, but did not agree with the union that broader violations had occurred.
U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., preempted both the hospital and the union Friday in announcing the tentative agreement, issuing a statement about 10 minutes before the two sides released their joint statement.
"I commend the hospital and the workers' union for working together to achieve a mutually beneficial agreement — a victory for common sense and community," Blumenthal said in the statement. "I'm pleased this agreement will enable a longer-term path to fair, positive professional relationships. The ultimate beneficiaries will be the patients and people in Connecticut who will receive world-class medical care from dedicated, skilled professionals and cutting-edge facilities."
One technician, who did not support the strike and asked to remain anonymous, said she is "annoyed" that the tentative agreement was announced without providing the nurses and technicians with information about the terms. She said she was "blown away" by the suddenness of the announcement.
Since she and other nurses and technicians returned to work after the lockout, under the terms of the contract that expired Nov. 16, there has been a friendly atmosphere among workers regardless of whether they supported the union's decisions or not, she said.
"But with the management, there's definitely been a divide where there never was one before," she said.
One nurse who was strongly supportive of the union throughout the strike and lockout said she is taking a "wait and see" attitude about how she'll vote on the proposed agreement.
"I'll wait until Monday when I read what's in it," she said.

Mirotic scores 28 as Bulls edge Rockets 103-100
Nikola Mirotic scored 28 points and Jimmy Butler added 21 to lead the Chicago Bulls to a 103-100 win over the Houston Rockets on Thursday night.
In a pivotal game for two teams fighting for the final playoff spots in their respective conferences, the Bulls were fueled by a strong fourth quarter in which they outscored the Rockets 32-20. Chicago entered the fourth facing a nine-point deficit but was able to overcome thanks to hot shooting from Mirotic.
Trevor Ariza attempted a tying 3 at the buzzer, but it rimmed out and Chicago held on.
The Bulls won their second consecutive game following a four-game skid and trail Indiana by one game for the final playoff spot in the East.
Houston dropped a half-game behind Utah and Dallas, who are tied for the seventh and eighth seeds in the West.
James Harden led Houston with 24 points and eight assists.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by BiB, Aug 14, 2005.
We were observing your frustration from our board. Drew is going to have you taking xanax, soon.
Um you registered just to post that?
so you came to our board to say this why?
but it doesnt matter at least unlike your team last year the backup QB for our team actaully knows 1 +1 = 2
How coincidental, he just appears after Bledsoe has a bad preseason game.
We are watching your frustration to with J.P he had a touch down but thats against indy and there rooks and what not in the game. Mannings backup had a better game. I could say more because my brother is a bills fan and i can come up with all sorts of junk against em.
We are just stockpiling talent in order for us to tale a SB run around 2007 or 2008
In all honesty, another stop gap will delay our postseason plans and a chance for a legitimate SB run
Losman didnt do much either, but at least there is upside there
You obviously haven't seen the guy play/listen to the guy speak.
Drew seems to have left his playbook laying around somewhere there in Buffalo...if you find it can you please get it in the mail as soon as you can.
What you don't realize is the he is only a decoy. He won't be our starter when the regular seaosn begins.
And a 4+ million dollar a year decoy at that... :laugh2:
the Giants got it right...and we'll be chasing them before, hopefully, we get it right, too
Is that a username or your required attire?

Yea, they are paying selectively. They will pay less than 5$ in order to keep their name, but block payments more that 40$ for instance. They should pay me more that 50$!!! And they blocked my account, so I couldn't access it. Support is silent.

Last week, Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers told fans to relax after his team's 1-2 start, but Chicago's Jay Cutler stutter stepped that approach and opted for reality on the heels of the Bears' falling to 2-2 Sunday after a 38-17 loss to the Packers.
"I'm not gonna tell them anything," Cutler said Monday during the "Jay Cutler Show" on ESPN 100. "We've got to win games at home. Green Bay, a divisional opponent … we've just got to play better. There is a lot of football left. [Rodgers] does have a point. It's a long season. We've had a rough stretch."
After back-to-back victories on the road at San Francisco and against the New York Jets, the Bears returned to Soldier Field on Sunday for the first time since the opener. The Bears sprinted out of the gate and marched 80 yards on 15 plays to start the game, only to sputter down the stretch as a result of two turnovers, shoddy play in the secondary and a pass rush that barely made Rodgers flinch as he tossed four touchdown passes.
Starting with a matchup Sunday at Carolina, the Bears play three of the next four on the road before their Nov. 2 bye. Cutler offered no assurances the club would bounce back. The club's three upcoming road opponents (Carolina, Atlanta and New England) currently hold a combined record of 6-5.
"We've had a rough stretch," Cutler said. "We're gonna go through a pretty rough stretch, like you guys were talking about earlier, the next four games. So we've just got to take it one game at a time."
The Bears rolled up 496 yards of offense and converted 64 percent of third downs. But a couple of Cutler interceptions, combined with the defense's allowing Rodgers to throw for 302 yards and a passer rating of 151.2, doomed Chicago's prospects. In 28 pass attempts, Rodgers suffered only one sack, and Bears coach Marc Trestman said Monday that the club blitzed very little in the loss.
Asked whether he remained confident about future meetings with the Packers, Cutler said, "Yeah, you saw the stats. I think we've got a really good bead on them now, with Trest[man] and this group. So hopefully we can start improving on that."
Cutler finished with a passer rating of 82.5 and two touchdown passes to go with the interceptions. Matt Forte was one of the club's few bright spots on offense. He rushed for 122 yards on 23 attempts.
Despite the shaky outing against the Packers, Cutler has completed 65.8 percent of his throws for 10 touchdowns, four interceptions and a passer rating of 94.7, which is promising, considering he entered the season with a career passer rating of 84.6.
Cutler owns a 1-9 record against the Packers, and he's 41-22 against the rest of the NFL. In games against Chicago's division rival, Cutler has completed 55.6 percent of his throws with a touchdown-to-interception differential of minus-8. Against the rest of the NFL, Cutler's completion percentage rises to 61.1 and his touchdown-to-interception ratio to plus-41.
Does the record against the Packers bother Cutler?
"Obviously, you want it to be better," Cutler said. "But there's not much I can do about it."
In evaluating his own play after the first month of the season, Cutler said, "You'd like to cut down some of those turnovers. A couple of them are pretty stupid. The last one was unfortunate. You clean some of that up, and I'd be happy."

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/114,969, titled "Reflector Assembly for a Recessed Luminaire," filed on May 5, 2008, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,784,979 which is related to co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/809,785, titled "Surface-Mounted Lighting Fixture," filed Jun. 1, 2007. The complete disclosures of each of the foregoing related applications are hereby fully incorporated herein by reference.
The invention relates generally to recessed luminaires, and more particularly, to maintaining the integrity and shape of a multi-member reflector of a recessed luminaire.
A luminaire is a system for producing, controlling, and/or distributing light for illumination. For example, a luminaire can include a system that outputs or distributes light into an environment, thereby allowing certain items in that environment to be visible. Luminaires are sometimes referred to as "light fixtures".
A recessed lighting fixture is a light fixture that is installed in a hollow opening in a ceiling or other surface. A typical recessed lighting fixture includes a platform attached to a ceiling or wall structure, a reflector mounted to the platform, and a lamp socket coupled to the reflector. For example, the lamp socket can be mounted directly to the reflector and/or platform. Alternatively, the lamp socket can be mounted to an upper reflector, which can be mounted to the reflector and/or platform. The lamp socket is configured to receive a light-emitting element, such as a lamp, light-emitting diode (LED), or bulb. For simplicity, the term "lamp" is used herein to refer to any light-emitting element.
The reflector can include a single member or multiple members that are joined together at one or more joints. For example, the joints can be riveted or spot welded together. Riveting, spot welding, and other traditional methods of joining members of a multi-member reflector are unsatisfactory. Such methods typically result in poor structural integrity of the reflector. For example, traditional multi-member reflectors include one or more gaps at the joints of the members. These gaps can allow light to leak between the members, decreasing the efficiency and aesthetic value of the lighting fixture. In addition, the gaps can compromise the geometry of the reflectors. For example, large gaps can cause a "square"-shaped reflector to have a non-square geometry, thereby changing the intended effect of the reflector to the light from the light-emitting element. Moreover, spot welding may cause deformation or degradation of a surface of the reflector.
Therefore, a need exists in the art for a system and method for maintaining the integrity and shape of a reflector of a recessed luminaire. In particular, a need exists in the art for maintaining the integrity and shape of a multi-member reflector of a recessed luminaire.
The invention provides a system and method for maintaining the integrity and shape of a multi-member reflector for a recessed luminaire. In particular, the invention provides a reflector assembly having a frame configured to maintain the integrity and shape of the multi-member reflector of the reflector assembly. The members of the reflector can be arranged in a geometric form, such as an oblong, oval, rectangular, circular, hexagonal, triangular, or any other geometric form.
The frame can be disposed around all or a portion of the reflector and can include one or more integral members configured to be manipulated around joints formed between adjacent members of the reflector. For example, each integral member can include a protrusion from an edge of the reflector, such as a clamp or a tab. Alternatively, the members of the reflector can include one or more integral tabs configured to be manipulated around the joints. For example, each integral tab can include a protrusion from an edge of the reflector member, which may be manipulated around an outside edge of the frame. The frame and the integral member(s) can be configured to secure the positions of the members relative to one another and to prevent light from leaking through joints between each of the members.
One or more connectors can be integral to the frame or coupled to the frame for connecting the reflector assembly to a lighting fixture. For example, each connector can include a biasing member, such as a torsion spring, that includes a lever. The lever can be configured to engage a corresponding catch of a collar on the lighting fixture.
These and other aspects, features and embodiments of the invention will become apparent to a person of ordinary skill in the art upon consideration of the following detailed description of illustrated embodiments exemplifying the best mode for carrying out the invention as presently perceived.
For a more complete understanding of the present invention and the advantages thereof, reference is now made to the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying figures briefly described as follows.
The following description of exemplary embodiments refers to the attached drawings, in which like numerals indicate like elements throughout the several figures.
Each hanger bar 120 is configured to be fastened to a ceiling or wall support or joist. In certain exemplary embodiments, each hanger bar 120 can include an integral fastener for attaching the hanger bar 120 to the support or joist, substantially as described in co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/090,654, entitled "Hanger Bar for Recessed Luminaires with Integral Nail," the complete disclosure of which is hereby fully incorporated herein by reference. The platform 105 extends substantially between the hanger bars 110.
The platform 105 includes an aperture 125 through which light from the lamp 115 can pass. Although depicted in
The collar 130 includes one or more catches 135 configured to engage corresponding connectors 140 of
Each of the members 315 comprises a reflective material, such as extruded metal, sheet metal, or die-cast metal. In certain exemplary embodiments, one or more of the members 315 can include a protective coating, such as an anodized layer of material. Each member 315 includes a first end segment 315 a and a second end segment 315 b disposed on opposing sides of a central segment 315 c. The first end segment 315 a of one member is positioned substantially adjacent to the second end segment 315 b of another member 315, converging at the joints 316-319.
The members 315 are disposed around a light dispersion region 321. One side of each central segment 315 c is visible from within the light dispersion region 321. Each end segment 315 a and 315 b extends from its corresponding central segment 315, in a direction away from the light dispersion region 321. Thus, each pair of the end segments 315 a and 315 b essentially creates a "wing" 322 a-322 d that extends outward from the light dispersion region 321 and generally towards the bracket assembly 310. The end segments 315 a and 315 b and their corresponding wings 322 a-322 d are generally not visible from within the light dispersion region 321.
The bracket assembly 310 includes a frame 320 and the connectors 140. The frame 320 can be formed as a single member, with no joints, or by joining together multiple members at one or more joints. The frame 320 includes side segments 355 b-355 d disposed about at least a portion of the members 315 of the reflector 305. Each corner 320 b-320 d of the frame 320 includes at least one clamp 325 configured to be compressed around at least a portion of a corresponding one of the wings 322 a-322 d. For example, each clamp 325 can include a substantially "V"-shaped member configured to be compressed around its corresponding portion of a wing 322 a-322 d. In certain exemplary embodiments, the clamp 325 is integral with its corresponding corner 320 b-320 d.
In addition to securing the bracket assembly 310 to the reflector 305, the clamps 325 and the segments 355 b-355 d provide structural integrity to the reflector 305. For example, the clamps 325 and the segments 355 b-355 d secure the end segments 315 a and 315 b at the joints 322 a-322 d of the reflector 305, thereby maintaining a geometrical relationship between the members 315. In addition, the clamps 325 prevent light from leaking out from the light dispersion region 321 along the joints 322 a-322 d. For example, by providing clamps 325 a and 325 d that extend along a significant portion of the joint 322 a-322 d, the clamps 325 a and 325 d can prevent gaps between the members 315 and also can reflect light transmitted through any such gaps back into the light dispersion region 321.
Each connector 140 includes a biasing member, such as a torsion spring 345, having a lever 350.
The torsion spring 345 can be installed within one of the apertures 406 and 407. Ends of the torsion spring 345 can be disposed about the mounting tabs 408 and 409. For example, the torsion spring 345 can be installed within the aperture 406 when the lighting fixture 100 of
With reference to
In certain alternative exemplary embodiments, one or more of the connectors 140 can be integral to the frame 320. For example, apertures 406 and 407 of the connectors 140 can be formed in side members of the frame 320 such that each biasing member 345 of the connectors 140 extends between mounting tabs integral to the frame 320. Each of the connectors 140 may include a resting tab integral to the frame 320, similar to the resting tab 410 described above. In additional alternative exemplary embodiments, the reflector assembly 117 may not include connectors 140.
With reference to
In certain exemplary embodiments, adjustment tabs 365 disposed about the frame 320 can help ensure proper alignment of the reflector assembly 117 within the lighting fixture 100. For example, each adjustment tab 365 can include a clip, as illustrated in
Although illustrated in
As illustrated in
The lens 1525 includes a transparent or semi-transparent member having a profile that substantially corresponds to an interior profile of the lens frame 1520. In certain exemplary embodiments, the lens 1525 may be installed in the reflector assembly 1517 by placing the lens 1525 on the top end of the reflector 1105, aligning the lens frame 1520 with the lens 1525 and the reflector 1105, and securing the clips 1520 b of the lens frame 1520 to the tabs 1110 of the reflector 1105. In certain exemplary embodiments, the lens 1525 is configured to protect a lamp (not shown) or wiring (not shown) associated with the lighting fixture 100 (of
Like the reflector assembly 117 of
The second end 1621 b of the member 1621 includes a segment 1621 c that extends in a direction away from a light dispersion region 1641 of the reflector assembly 1617. Similarly, a second end 1622 b of the member 1622 includes a segment 1622 c that extends in a direction away from the light dispersion region 1641. The segments 1621 c and 1622 c engage one another, with fasteners 1618 (
As best seen in
Similar to the first end 1621 a of the member 1621, a first end 1623 a of the member 1623 includes notches 1631 configured to receive tabs 1625 b disposed on a first end 1624 a of the member 1624. For example, when the reflector assembly 1617 is assembled, the tabs 1625 b are bent around edges of the notches 1631 to secure the members 1623 and 1624 to one another. In certain exemplary embodiments, one or more of the members 1621-1624 may include an integral corner tab 1632 configured to engage a corresponding notch 1633 of an adjacent member 1621-1624. For example, in certain exemplary embodiments, the corner tab 1632 is configured to be bent into the notch 1633 to secure the adjacent members 1623 and 1624 together.
A lens 1655 is positioned with the reflector 1605 by resting on support segments 1656 a-1656 d of the members 1621-1624. The lens 1655 includes a transparent or semi-transparent member. Integral tabs 1657 of the members 1621 and 1623 are configured to bend around corner edges 1655 a of the lens 1655, to thereby secure the lens 1655 to the reflector 1605.
Similar to the bracket assembly 310 of
Each corner 1660 a-1660 d of the frame 1660 includes at least one pocket 1670 configured to receive a corresponding tab 1625. Each tab 1625 extends from one of the ends 1621 a, 1623 a, 1624 a, and 1624 b or one of the segments 1621 c, 1622 c, 1622 d, and 1623 d. For example, one or more of the tabs 1625 can be integral to its corresponding end 1621 a, 1623 a, 1624 a, 1624 b or segment 1621 c, 1622 c, 1622 d, 1623 d. Each tab 1625 is configured to be compressed around at least a portion of a corresponding joint 1626-1629 of the reflector 1605, such that at least a portion of the tab 1625 rests within a corresponding pocket 1670. In certain exemplary embodiments, at least one of the pockets 1625 includes a hook 1671 configured to engage the corresponding tab 1625. For example, the hook 1671 can be configured to retain the tab 1625 within the pocket 1670.

Reviews of Hope Landing
DSR June 26, 2012
I am a friend or relative of a resident
Hope Landing is a beautiful assisted living facility, operated by a talented, responsive staff and owned by a wonderful, caring couple.I am very pleased with my great-great aunt's accommodations she has a private room that is like a small apartment, with a living area, bedroom and her own bathroom. Since Hope Landing is relatively new, everything about my great-great aunt's apartment is in good condition and is as well kept as the rest of the building.I have not been present for any of the activities, but based on the calendar each resident is provided there is plenty to do. There are several common areas (some with big screen televisions, others with books and quiet pursuits) and all are nicely appointed. I have also been present for one meal and it appears that the residents are receiving meals that are both tasty and have adequate nutrition for people of their age.

Goes the extra mile
Dr. Pandya treated my mother's cancer. My mother originally was to undergo chemotherapy, but Dr.Pandya spent the time investigating her diagnosis to identify ALL possible and appropriate treatments. After successful surgery and follow up with the right drugs, my mother has been cancer free for 5 years, without needing chemotherapy. Dr. Pandya spent the extra time to personally present our options and make sure we understood them. Her empathy and personal investment in my mother's wellness is something I couldn't possibly imagine finding in another oncologist. Her staff is remarkable as well - Carla, the Physicians Assistant, spent the time my mother needed to find comfort in an incredibly frightening time. The personal and exceptional treatment Dr. Pandya and her team provides in the medical age we live in is extremely rare, and I must highly, highly recommend her.

Harvest Discovery Homes owns and operates abstinence model addiction recovery and supportive housing facilities in the Fraser Valley. Locations in suburban areas offer an advantage in being further away from the downtown scene where it might be easy to relapse. We also have a wheelchair accessible facility.
Harvest Discovery Homes complies with city licensing, zoning, noise control and traffic bylaws and endeavors to build and maintain community trust by entering into a Good Neighbour Agreement with the City. We are registered with the Ministry of Health BC - Assisted Living Registrar and provide supportive housing regulated under the Community Care and Assisted Living Act. [Learn More]
Residential recovery treatment and abstinence programs consistently achieve some of the best results because the client is in a facility where their worries are limited giving them time to focus on overcoming their addiction. The client is allowed in a second stage recovery facility after committing to participate in a 12-step program. The 12-step group meetings are an important resource because they are effective, free and universally available. Residents are required to become active and committed to the meetings in order to maintain their residency at the facility. [Learn More]
Drug and alcohol addiction is a substitute for an inability to cope with life. When an area of an individual's life becomes out of control, it can seem impossible to put back together. Intervention plans are often made by concerned friends and family. We can guide you and help you decide what the best treatment option is for your loved one. [Learn More]

Sleeping By The Surf
Spencer glared into the clear surf, knowing Rene was probably far below it by now. He grumbled to himself, even though a smile was on his face, before taking off his wet t-shirt. Picking up her clothes, he headed back to his pick-up to find the ever-present striped red towel and beach bag. He stashed her clothing and then pulled out the towel to lay it across the seat before climbing in and starting it up.
But seconds later, he turned the engine back off; there was no where he wanted to go, no one else he wanted to be with. His empty apartment wasn't appealing and so he decided to just sit at the beach for a while. Knowing Rene was close by was comforting, no matter how deep down in the sea she was.
Spencer pulled the book from his backpack and then climbed into the bed of his truck, facing the calm surf. Flipping to the page Rene had obviously yet to reach, he sighed sadly. As soon as she reached here, she'd understand everything, he hoped.
Spencer spent the night on the beach, sleeping in the bed of the truck instead of heading home. After all the time he spent with Rene, she unfortunately never stayed for the night. Still, the following day for Spencer would be full of community college classes so he figured he might as well be there when Rene surfaced since she wouldn't be able to have the whole day alone with him.
He awoke to a smiling Rene snuggled up to his side. "Hi sleepy head," she said sweetly and he turned to kiss her cheek.
"Hey ... you're dressed," he replied just as she slapped his shoulder hard.
"Shut up!" Her cheeks turned bright red as she moved into a sitting position and he propped himself up onto his elbows.
"I just couldn't help myself, babe. Sorry. But hey, I've got classes all day so we'll have to hurry if you wanna get breakfast or anything."
Rene bit her lip in obvious disappointment. "Oh. Okay, well do we have time to stop and get some clothes?"
"In my opinion you don't even need clothes." He laughed loud as she slapped him hard again before hoisting herself over the side of the truck and climbing in front without another word.
Spencer couldn't wipe the smile from his face as he got in after her, deciding to stay shirtless just to make a statement. Rene openly pouted with her arms crossed over her chest as she stared out the window and Spencer just wasn't having that. He slid closer to her as she slid further away. But she'd already slammed the door closed so there was no escaping him. Not that she really wanted to.
Finally, Rene turned her head slightly to face him and he kissed her full of the lips hastily. She couldn't help but smile and press her body close to him as they kissed but after a prolonged minute he had to pull away unwillingly. "We don't have time," he said sadly, "But maybe we could ... if you stayed over."
She was shaking her head before he even finished his sentence. "Let's not get into this now."
He slid away, starting the engine in silence before finally answering in defeat, "Fine, fine, fine. We'll talk about it later." He leaned over to kiss her cheek again before driving out of the sand and toward his apartment.

sony 21 100w channel sound bar with subwoofer is rated out of 5 by 62.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Newbie65 from Nice features but could have been better. This soundbar will improve the quality of sound coming from your tv but it does have limitations depending on the size of your room. There is a slight lip sync issue, which is mentioned in the instructions but you don't find this out until after purchase and there is no way to correct this. When using the optical connection, with the supplied lead, I found that I needed the volume turned up full to get decent sound. Using an analogue lead to the headphone socket gave the best volume. I have my bar placed on a unit sitting underneath. It does block the tv sensor. It was very easy to set up and looks nice. Over all, it does as it is supposed to but could be so much better.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Active Pensioner 02 from Good Basic Sound System to support a TV This sound bar was bought to accompany a 4K 49" TV in a medium sized room. It is a basic system at a basic price, well suited to non specialist users. I found it relatively simple to set up despite rather sketchy instructions. The performance is adequate rather than sparkling, - the bass sub woofer is, frankly, rather disappointing. This is not the system for those wanting very high definition and volume, but it is a useful addition to standard TV sound in a small to a medium size room with the minimum of fuss, to improve watching TV and films considerably.
Date published: 2015-12-17
Rated 4 out of 5 by Alfarome from Fitting to soundbar bracket could be better The back of the soundbar has only two keyholes for presumably hanging on a wall. Ours is fitted to a soundbar bracket for fitting to a cantilever TV stand and there are no threaded inserts on the back of the soundbar for secure fitting to a bracket. Only the two keyholes and the correct size screws are not supplied by Sony. We are finding it difficult to get the precise size screws to fit the keyholes. Again, two threaded inserts should also be at the back of the soundbar for those who want to fit the soundbar below the TV on a cantilever stand. Otherwise the sound improvement over the standard TV speakers is better.
Date published: 2015-06-05
Rated 5 out of 5 by forgey from just the right size I was looking at other Sony soundbars, but with my new 42'' Sony tv they would have blocked an inch or so of the bottom of the screen, as well as the remote signal, as the stand is quite low. The ht-ct 180 is only 2'' high and sits below the screen, and allows remote signals (albeit bounced off the ceiling) to function. As for sound quality, well pleased, good base for movies, and plays my walkman back great. At 180 watts it is too powerful to play on full volume in my 18ft x 13ft lounge, so would suit most homes. A really good upgrade from the tv speakers, which seem to get weaker these days as tvs get slimmer.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Luke2016 from Beware lip sync issues We bought this sound bar with a new Sony Bravia 50 inch Smart TV from Harvey Norman a month ago. The sound is good, but unfortunately the significant lip sync issues render this sound bar useless. The lip sync issues are most prominent streaming TV (e.g. Netflix) and watching Blu ray movies. Not so noticeable watching free-to-air TV. We have spent countless hours and several hundred extra dollars trying to correct the issue, but to no avail.
Date published: 2016-04-06
Rated 1 out of 5 by Safety Sam from Not what I would expect from Sony I bought this product as a gift for a relative, on the basis of my experience with an earlier version (SA-CT60). After installation I could not believe how poor it was in comparison (should have read some of the other reviews) to my own one. The sound is tinny and there is almost no base out of the so called sub-woofer. Unlike the CT60 there is no treble or base control so you only have the factory set sound levels. I have been a great fan of Sony products in the past but this experience will make me more likely to look at other manufacturers. I certainly would not recommend this sound bar to anyone.
Date published: 2016-01-11
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gothnanny from Brilliant sound. We bought this to go with our new Sony 43" UHD t.v. The sound on the t.v. Itself is not great, but this sound bar is just fantastic. It has several adjustments for surround sound, voice and sub woofer. We have placed the wireless subwoofer behind our armchairs, so when watching films, we get the full surround sound experience! We love the fact that it has Bluetooth, so I can now listen to the music from my phone on decent speakers! We are extremely happy with our purchase, and would recommend.
Date published: 2016-02-02
Rated 3 out of 5 by Yo yo from Good but issues Good sound but does things like switches off without me telling it to, when not in use. Would love to control sound, at least volume, from tv remote, rather than having another remote to lose. These are important things but no clear instructions to indicate if it is possible to the above.

New port elevator looks to bring in millions
Related Story
BATON ROUGE - Upgrades at the Port of Baton Rouge could spell millions of dollars more flowing into the area.
Pointe Coupee farmer George Lacour has grown soybean his entire life. While surveying the new grain elevator at the Port of Baton Rouge, he said the upgrades mean the future of his business is looking bright.
"This is a great day for farmers from Baton Rouge to Shreveport," he said. "Bring huge increase in prices to Louisiana farmers."
A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held Tuesday, celebrating the completion of the $150 million investment by Louis Dreyfus commodities.
"Louisiana offers a great wealth of economic opportunities for companies that ship agriculture products all over the world," Governor Bobby Jindal said at the ceremony.
The elevator has the capacity to unload 24 barges of grain per day, loading that product directly onto vessels bound for foreign markets.
"It doesn't do us a bit of good with products we have if we can't ship and sell," said Mike Strain, Louisiana commissioner of Agriculture.
Tired of having to transport their product downriver, Lacour said two years ago local farmers banded together in an unprecedented move.
"Over 50 farmers came here one night and demanded port commissioners look into changing tenants," Lacour said.
Now those farmers can load onto ships much closer to home. And area farmers like Lacour look to save big bucks: the LSU AgCenter estimates that farmers statewide will see combined sales increases of up to $20 million per year.

All too often, terms like "Class-I/Division-2" or "Class-II/Group-E" stir up confusion in the minds of makers and users of industrial heating equipment. Furnaces use fuel, and fuel creates a risk of fire and explosion. Furnaces also have flames, and flames can ignite combustibles. Why aren't all high-temperature processing areas designated as "hazardous-classified"?

Home › Forums › General Forums › General Lightweight Backpacking Discussion › First UL trip experience
Sep 7, 2012 at 9:57 am #1293814
Jeff NBPL Member
@newtroutLocale: Pacific NW
I've been a backpacker for years. Lots of off-trail scrambling/peak bagging in the Cascades and Olympics in Washington. I always tried to get lightish gear, you know: 4.5 lb tent, 3.5 lb pack, 1.5 lb inflatable pad, etc. With the kind of hiking I like to do, I typically centered my trips around a base camp so I could drop gear and then go do the fun stuff.
In the search for a new tent, I stumbled on BPL. My first thought was that going ultralight would be an uncomfortable, ritualistic experience that was more about bragging your 'base weight' on the internet… I figured that most of the gear would be over the top expensive, and result in primitive experience where you pretend to enjoy spending a cold, wet night under a grocery sack after wiping your behind with pine needles.
I started with a Contrail tarptent. To my surprise, it was as roomy as my last '2-person' freestanding tent, and much lighter (and cheaper!). I fell in love immediately. Next was a GG Gorilla Pack. Wait a second, this thing is 2 lbs lighter than my old pack, and just as comfortable? Then came a lighter Hyalite inflatable pad and an Esbit solid fuel stove ($10!!??). Hmmm. So far there was no sacrifice in comfort. None. And the gear swap here was making this relatively inexpensive.
Next was a closer look at my gear; shed some clothes I never used, cut down on some excess container sizes, etc.
Last weekend was my test trip. My overnight gear list is something like this:
-TT Contrail w/ SOL Emergency blanket for groundsheet
-GG Gorilla with Sitpad back
-Hyalite mummy pad
-Big Agnes Pomer Hoit 0* (I'm a cold sleeper, so I'm cool with an extra pound here for now).
-Esbit folding stove with 6 fuel tabs and MSR Titan
-Steripen (classic version that is reliable and takes AA batteries)
-Montbell Alpine Light Jacket
-Cheap 8 oz rain shell
-Baselayer top and bottom, extra socks
-Three freeze dried dinners, instant oatmeal, trail snack food, two smartwater 1L bottles (one full)
-Assorted first aid, repair, Via coffee packs, Emergen-C packets, lighter, head net, touque, mini cabelas leatherman, mini toothpaste, toothbrush
-smartphone for camera, reading, gps
-a spot of good tequila for… ummm… medicinal needs
I'm sure missing some little stuff, but you get the idea.
I chose Esmerelda Basin, adjacent to the Alpine Lakes Wilderness, as my test location. Lots of options depending on how I was feeling. Anyway, at the trailhead was the first time I'd slung the pack on my shoulders fully loaded. It was lighter than what I've used for some longish dayhikes! My little postal scale had me somewhere south of 19-lbs with food and one full 1L water bottle.
I quickly realized how this could change my typical hiking routine. Instead of looking for a base camp to dump some weight, I was free to keep everything with me. I ended up taking a nice off-trail scramble route to Fortune Peak and spending the night on the summit. It was beautiful at dusk and dawn, but pretty cold and windy overnight. Everything functioned perfectly. The Contrail is palatial for one person, the Esbit setup is perfect for my hot-water only needs. My pack was so light, that I didn't hesitate to fill my other 1L bottle and pack it the last 1500' of vertical for dinner and breakfast needs.

The Contrail looking southeast toward Ellensburg.
On a side note, I switched to trail runners last year, before I made the lightweight move. They worked fine with my old gear, but now I'm completely sold. With the light pack, I had no issues with my Inov-8s through boulder fields, loose scree scrambling on the ascent and descent. No need for camp shoes anymore. No blisters, and my feet are still comfy at the end of the day. No desperate desire to get out of the heavy leathers…
Thanks to BPL for some great gear swap deals and great info.Sep 7, 2012 at 10:48 am #1910077

Thanks for taking the time to share your lightweight story of transformation.
Sure that a lot of us can relate to your experience and appreciate that first, "Ah Ha!" moment when it all worked out well going lighter and realizing that you are not sacrificing all that much to go light.
Great photos too to show us what you did and where you were.
Congrats….now think of all the other places you can go and can enjoy more with a lighter pack!

Interesting review. Nice to have your photos to illustrate the story. Beautiful country too.
I had a Contrail and liked it a lot then sold it to get a TT Moment and love it esp. because of its wind-worthiness and more useable vestibule. But it doesn't have the floorspace of the Contrail.
As for ESBIT cooking I've done it for years but never knew how efficient it could be until I got a Caldera Cone Sidewinder W/ a 3 cup pot. That stove is SO efficient with ESBIT tabs that I used 30% less fuel every day. But yeah, it's an expensive stove. However as well, it is (IMHO) the best gassifier wood stove out there.
Keep on working with UL and you'll be backpacking into your 80s with good knees.Sep 7, 2012 at 4:58 pm #1910196

@francoLocale: Tarptent
Good report.
As you discovered it does not need to be all that expensive , neither you need to give up a lot of comfort if any.
In fact to me the more weight one has, the more 'comfort" that one needs to make up for being tired .
keep having fun

I loved your trip report…I've been going through the same process as you, and I smiled too, because my setup is getting closer to yours. I decided on a 2 lb. solo tent instead of tarp. Thanks for the inspiration!Sep 16, 2012 at 5:31 pm #1912812

Reminds me of my firts UL trip. TT Squall, home modified pack, trail runners, 2.5 lb sleeping bag, home made stove. After 25 years of backpacking it was a revelation.Sep 16, 2012 at 6:59 pm #1912824

WASHINGTON — Alex Ovechkin's Washington Capitals are specializing in slow starts — to games and to seasons.
Heading into Saturday against the visiting Columbus Blue Jackets, Washington is 2-5, and that includes only one regulation victory. There are various things going wrong, and one that stands out is that the Capitals are being outscored 9-4 in first periods.
"We had higher expectations for ourselves," forward Troy Brouwer said.
