Nice tribute to the blues

Verified Purchase:Yes
I like what the Stones have done with this but I could see where some people might not like it. Try some of the clips to see if you like it before purchasing. A couple of cuts don't do much for me, but overall I really like it. Heard today on XM it is the #1 blues album in the world! Guess some people like it.

These are replacing a pair of SF-2 speakers I've had for several years. Never had a problem with them and these speakers are keeping up the great tradition. Good solid build, easy hookup and an awesome sound!

Technicals keep getting better and better and it is of course Star Trek. We got the 3D version and that makes a huge difference. Go for it if you have 3D.

Interesting angle

Interesting angle to see the super heroes go at it against each other. Think I'm almost getting tired of all the CGI as it's turning into how much and how big can we destroy the next object. I'd definitely recommend it in 3D though. Adds a lot to the movie when you get a little bored.

Although it undoubtedly goes without saying at this late date, the original Star Trek is the most popular and influential science fiction series ever seen on American network television--and as far as many people are concerned, it remains absolutely the best TV series of any kind. The weekly, hour-long Star Trek was conceived as "Wagon Train in outer space" by its creator, Gene Roddenberry, who had long labored in the TV-western mills before his pet project made its NBC debut on September 8, 1966. Describing space as "the final frontier" in the opening narration, Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner), commander of the starship U.S.S. Enterprise, informed the viewer that his vessel's five-year mission was to "seek out new life forms and new civilizations", and "to boldly go where no man has gone before." The series was set in the 23rd century, a time in which most of the various intergalactic civilizations (with the notable exception of the warlike Klingons!) had forged a lasting peace and formed the United Federation of Planets, for whom the Enterprise was the flagship. While the heroic, self-sacrificing Kirk was the leading character and primary plot motivator, the series' most famous character was the Enterprise's pointy-eared first officer/science officer Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy). Born on the planet Vulcan and the product of a Vulcanian father and human mother, Mr. Spock was cool, unflappable, unemotional, meticulously logical--and to thousands upon thousands of female Star Trek enthusiasts, irresistible. Other members of the multiethnic crew included Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy (DeForest Kelley), the ship's short-tempered chief medical officer ("Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a mind-reader!"); chief engineer Montgomery "Scotty" Scott (James Doohan); Lt. Uhura (Nichelle Nichols), the African American communications officer; Lt. Sulu (George Takei), the Asian helmsman; nurse Christine Chapel (played by Majel Barrett, later Mrs. Gene Roddenberry); and, beginning in the second season, Russian-born ensign Pavel Chekov (Walter Koenig). Another principal character, Yeoman Janice Rand (Grace Lee Whitney), appeared sporadically during the first two seasons. Unlike so many other sci-fi/fantasy programs, Star Trek favored strong characterizations and solid story values over gadgetry and monsters: indeed, it was originally touted as "TV's first adult science fiction series." As such, the program attracted the best writers of the genre, among them Richard Matheson, Theodore Sturgeon, Robert Bloch, David Gerrold and Harlan Ellison, and the series' prolific story consultant, D.C. Fontana). Even so, there were still plenty of special photographic effects, which may seem a bit primitive when seen today but were sufficiently impressive to earn an Emmy award. The most memorable special effect was utilized whenever Kirk and his officers were "disintegrated" in order to be transported from the deck of the Enterprise to the surface of the planet of the week, and back again--inspiring the series' most famous catchphrase, "Beam me up, Scotty". While NBC has come in for its share of criticism for dictating budget cuts and production-staff changes that gradually eroded the series' quality (especially during its much-maligned third season), the network deserves credit for keeping Star Trek alive for three seasons and 79 episodes, despite mediocre ratings. It was only after its cancellation on September 2, 1969 and its move into off-network syndication that Star Trek began steadily building a huge audience above and beyond its core fan base of "Trekkers" (or "Trekkies", depending upon the fan's age and extent of enthusiasm). By the time the first Star Trek convention was held in 1972, the series' place in the Valhalla of TV classics was assured.

Forgot how far technology has come until seeing this series again. A little boring for me, but my daughter loved seeing them and how it all started. Nice seeing the original characters. Watching them all in a short time shows you how they aged over the span of time it took to do all 6 movies.

Outstanding picture

Very easy setup, connected to wi-fi in seconds, and has an unbelievable picture. Even without 4K input, the HD quality on cable TV channels is much higher than our previous HD TV. I doubt we'll get into purchasing 4K movies in the near future, but the quality of the picture has made it worth the upgrade. Only downside I see is the remote, which has been turned into a touchpad/click remote. Can't go directly to a numbered channel with this remote. If that doesn't bother you, the TV is exceptional.

Can you activate it after free three mont trial period with Apple?

You can add it to your account at anytime. Just adds $99 to your balance. Just before your trial period ends though, go into your setting and make sure you are set for annual membership or they will start charging you $9.99 per month. Believe me, I know from experience and they won't change it for you. You will end up short and will have to buy a $10 card to get your balance back up to have enough for the annual cost of $99. Just pay attention to the dates and get it changed just before the trial period ends.

Give your family safe, fresh-testing water with Samsung genuine filters. Samsung water filters remove over 99% of numerous harmful contaminants, including lead. Each filter lasts for 6 months or 300 gallons.
 

I need a new WATER filter for my 4 door Samsung Refrigerator ,model RF28HMEDBWW bought last November at Best Buy. This model # does not seem to be listed for any of the filters. Thanks for your help.

Check Samsung online or call your dealer where you purchased it. Or turn the water feed line off and pull the old one out to see the exact part number.

How long does the battery last

Sorry, but this question is loaded. It will all depend on the conditions you're working in, the load you put on it, how high brightness set, many things. Could last 2 hours, could last all day. Have it fully charged before you will be using it on a normal day. Monitor it throughout the day and you should get a good feel very quickly of how long it will last. I'm sure you can also find sites on the web that have put it through benchmark testing and get an estimate. Do a little research. btw, I have one and overall it seems to have decent battery life for my demands (most of the day).

How low does this computer go down to cost-wise?

I had an old laptop that is quite slow...in other words, I am looking for another one. I am only looking to play about 500 dollars. How low, on its best sale, does this go?
Save time and look elsewhere. You will NOT get this computer in that price range. I've always been in the $500 range for previous laptops, but I stepped up this time. With Intel i7, a 17" display and 16GB of RAM you are talking higher end, which in turn means higher price. During the holidays, with a sale, and then a one-day flash sale on it, I came in around $800. Since regular price was $1000 I couldn't pass it up, but probably wouldn't buy at the regular price. Hope this helps.
