It doesn't have quite the same level of magic that the first Avenger's movie had, but it does provide a near experience. Very entertaining, and a lot of action. The Hulk-buster scene is amazing. You can't go wrong adding this to your Marvel movie collection!

Haven't used it much, but I charged it up and put it in, and the sound quality was way better than an FM transmitter. Up until this time, I had been using a wired cassette adapter, which is a pain to connect any time you get in the car when doing a bunch of short trips. With this, it connects automatically and starts playing - you don't even have to take it out of your pocket. Put a couple hours total use on it, and so far love it!

Big Bang is a TV show that you can watch and laugh over and over. Me and my wife watch an episode of it nightly just before going to bed, to wind down, laugh, and forget the stresses of the day, and we have watched all seasons in order 4 times now. This latest season allows us to continue in that trend even further before repeating again. And we laugh just as hard each time we watch these episodes, no matter how many times we have seen them. If you haven't discovered The Big Bang Theory - give it a try!

Nashville is a drama about the country music scene, and it is definitely a drama - edge of seat, nothing held back, biting nails until the next episode type of show. You don't have to be a country music fan to enjoy it, as long as you like good music and lots of "JR" type of cliff hangers. Season 3 keeps this up, and it'll have you impatiently awaiting Season 4.

If you haven't started this series, I highly recommend it. Once Upon a Time takes classic fairy tales and puts a modern twist on them. This season brings in the super popular Frozen characters into the storyline. Once just gets better and better, season by season.

If you watch Once Upon a Time, you know it already. This is the best season yet. The character development is taken to new levels, and Peter Pan, well no spoilers, but Pan is the crux of so much and takes the story to a new level. This is the only TV show I purchase on Bluray, opting for plain DVD for everything else. Worth the extra money for high def.

The Amazing Spiderman 2 in 3D is the best 3D movie I've watched on my home system to date. The 3D visual effects are stunning. I do not know what makes this movie so different from any other 3D movie, but it just pops out at you. You do not forget you are watching a 3D movie. If you have a 3D home theater, this movie is a "can't miss'!

What's great about it: Story, cinema photography, acting
What's not so great: Nothing bad to say
I had heard about this movie, and how good it was. I took it with a grain of salt... but this movie started off at the edge of your seat immediately, and barely let up the entire time. I do not think I've ever seen a movie that was so intense for so long. The effects are masterful, and you become totally immersed in the movie. In 3D is a huge bonus.

What's great about it: Fantastic portrayal of books
What's not so great: Some may say it's too long - not me
Part 2 of the trilogy for The Hobbit. If you are watching, you must have watched the first of the 3, or you may get lost. The Hobbit trilogy is lining up to be just as good as The Lord of the Rings trilogy. If you've read the books, you know Peter Jackson does a wonderful job of staying true to the books as much as cinematically possible (there are some things missing, but it really does not bother me at all). If you haven't watched this or the first The Hobbit - I highly recommend it if you even remotely like Fantasy type of movies.

What's great about it: 4Tb of space - Mac compatible
What's not so great: No bad comments
I purchased this drive to house all my iTunes media on a Mac. I did have to format the drive for Mac vs PC, but that was a simple process. Once it was formatted, it took a few days to transfer data from my network drive, which was expected. The performance of this drive with the media is so much faster than the network drive, and I am only using USB 2.0, not the 3.0 it is capable of. I have no complaints about this drive, and I have multiple large WD drives throughout my home, and trust the brand for reliability.

GE - Smart Lighting Control In-Wall Add-On Switch
Stop worrying about leaving the lights on with this GE Smart Lighting Control 12723 switch, which connects to the wiring in your home via 3-way or 4-way configurations to give you remote control of your lighting via your smartphone, tablet or computer.
Will this work with the hue hub and app?
First off, the Auxiliary Switch does not work on it's own - it's meant for using with a primary switch in 2, 3 or 4 switch setups (such as when you have a switch for a hall light on each end of the hallway). You need this: GE Z-Wave 960-Watt CFL-LED Indoor In-Wall On/Off Rocker Switch - which is more expensive than the Auxiliary switch, but required for a single switch setup or as the primary in a multi-switch setup.
Second, the GE switches are Z-wave devices. The Hue does not control Z-wave devices. So the short answer is no.
There are Z-wave controller devices that will pair with the Hue gateway that will allow a hybrid controller system, where the hybrid Z-wave controllers can talk to the Hue and control what Hue controls. http://www.vesternet.com/resources/using-z-wave-and-philips-hue-together - go here for more info.

I have a three way light that I turn on or off from two different switches. Would I have to replace both switches,if I use the GE model 12723 ?

Does this switch work with a myQ Chamberlain gateway
This auxiliary switch only works as a secondary switch with the Z-Wave master switch (such as the GE Z-Wave 960-Watt CFL-LED Indoor In-Wall On/Off Rocker Switch). It connects to the primary switch, and the primary switch will connect to a gateway. You need to check compatibility of the master with your gateway. Mine is used with Vivint home security panel.

Dyson - Cinetic Big Ball Animal + Allergy Upright Vacuum - Iron/Nickel
Reclaim your floors with this Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal + Allergy 206033-01 upright vacuum, which features Cinetic science and a HEPA filtration system designed to be hypoallergenic. The 13.4" cleaning path and edge cleaning help you pick up quickly.
This vacuum is good for dogs hair?
We have 4 Siberian huskies and 2 cats - constant shedding. Hair is a daily battle. This vacuum keeps up even better than the Dyson ball we've used for 8 years prior. We broke 3 other big brand vacuums in short order due to the amount of hair and use. The older Dyson kept up like no other (and still works, we just wanted to upgrade) - and this new Cinetic vacuum works even better!
