Sean, buy the M5. Just do eet!
-
eh I dunno if I really want a full size truck, and if i got one I would go crew cab Raptor. Nuff said.
-
Why a mini man truck? If you're looking for some kind of dune hopping thingy I guess it might make sense. Buy your flavor of american well made and low cost to fix pick 'em ups :coughFORDcough:. If there is something the US knows how to do it's make a GD pickup truck.

I would love a shroom and swis.

It may be that the z7 can handle all the home audio functions in a really great way Sean. I will have to research some more and make sure it can work with win7 but I might be in luck

Thanks for the positive thought man! So yesterday, I went to the gym for a "serious lifting" day. Not happy. Only pushed 245 for 7 for the heaviest work set. Only got 135 for 10 for my burn out set too.

No lie, if I saw a plasma if equal size and quality that had a lower gloss screen for similar price I may have went that way. I nearly purchased the kuro super mega black black ultra black. But it was about a billion times more expencive for the displays that were smaller than mine. My LCD has an almost hazy finish on the screen and it difuses glare quite well... but it still washes out badly at times when the sun is setting and I'm not even in pure direct sunlight. Due to placement in my room I have even more problems too..... I get some washing in spots from a chandelier because of it's garbage placement. I do know however that $ for $ led isn't any real improvement and if you're talking black levels..... plasma makes any other TV format look like an etch a sketch for contrast ratio in the black levels.

some might argue even before exercize, but thats a chicken/egg type argument.

It's really the most important factor. every 3 hours. I've done so many tests with my own body and while helping my friends with fine tuning a healthy diet and when it comes to flat out changing body comp it really seams to be the biggest factor right after exercise.

At 6'2 and 260 I still had a good chunk of stomach fat even with a 21" neck and 55-60 sport coat that was still tight on my shoulders. I wasn't shredded by any means anywhere but my legs. I was over 28" around at the thigh and 20" at the calf unflexed for a while too. A 250 pound lean guy is pretty spectacular at any height within the average bell curve. For the record, at the time I was the most fit I was eating ~1.5 grams of protein per pound of desired weight at 240.

When I was in the best shape of my life I lifted 3~4 times a week. I did an every other day split, so one week was 3 days next was 4 days. 3 is enough for 95% of people to make a MASSIVE change in their body. I'm going to be 100% straight forward with you, if you want to morph your body and change it's composition use a 3 day split, and eat lean protein every 3 hours. When you lift, go to failure with at least one exercize per muscle group you work. As for protein just make sure you eat it every 3 hours. Carry beef jerky with you if you have to. I used to just keep boild chicken breast with me at all times or cans of tuna. Once as a punishment to myself for not planning ahead I chewed protein powder without any water as I was stuck in traffic for 2 hours. Seriously. Lean protein every 3 hours minimum and lots of healthy fats are the key to changing your body comp. Limit carbs to high GI simple sugars after you lift, and then vegis the rest of the time and you will change your body in 60 days. It sounds like an infometial but anyone who I have helped if they did 100% what I told them about diet and exercise could make a complete body change in under 90 days. I went from ~275 and a bit weak with 17" arms, to 265 with 18" arms and added 15%-40% on my lifts. Waist went from 40 to 36. Only 60 days, and I had a complete cheat day every sunday where I would eat a gallon of ice creme if I wanted just so long as I got protein every 3 hours. The other 6 days were clean as a whistle diet though.

For me, since I have a PS3 and direct tv it's always nice having more than you need, i would hate to have to switch HDMI's, Switching receiver can solve that issue as well. LED is actually good they're extremely light, power efficient, and THIN! My Tv is about 3-4x thicker than a comparable LED tv. Light, power efficient, and thin have NOTHING to do with picture btw. Plasma ftmfw. See... plasma fanboi!

I'm frustrated at your last two points. I think what normal people NEED and should have are pretty different. I'm not calling you out for any other reason than I think that a clear point should be made. Only 50 grams of proteins a day is quite enough to live, but it's not something that even a sedentary person would thrive on unless suplementing with some amino acids or having a really specific diet. Just like healthy fats.... You only need a small small amount to live, but increasing the healthy fats can make serious changes in your health. The same is true for many of the beneficial amino acids. 402 grams a protein is a huge amount. Do you compete in any athletics?

I can see it in your eyes. I can see it in your smile. . . Apparently I'm the only one who caught the Lionel? ^5

Why on EARTH is it not great for TV's. Have you ever seen one in action? yup. Lots. Demoed at least 15 different times. Plasma is still much better for almost everything. I know Sean will disagree, but I find the only reason to not get plasma is lighting. I also got a really great price on my LCDs so that was a big deal to me. I also specifically went out wanting a good picture but with really low glare and high brightness if I wanted it. If there was a plasma that was out at that specific time that had similar glare properties that was 52" and in the 1200 dollar range... I might have made a different choice.

I've always heard that much protein... I've heard that much as well, but I've also read that .6 to .9x body weight in protein is good enough also. Though I'm really not sure how much I intake. Let's see. Cereal- 5g 16 oz. milk in the cereal- 16g hard boiled egg- 6g 1/4 lb deli meat in lunch sandwich- ~22g cheese on sandwich- 5g Fruit & nut bar- 8g protein shake w. milk- 30g supper meat- ~40g miscellaneous protein in other supper ingredients- 5g That gets me to about 137g. I weigh 190, so that's a multiple of 0.72. Not bad. Could probably get a bit more. Let me preface everything that I say here is that it's under the assumption that someone is a pretty active person who does a moderate amount of resistance training. By that I'm saying you lift-to-failure(or extremely cose) your muscles with concentric and eccentric resistance several times a week. Well, I say 1 gram per pound of "desired" body weight is the optimal starting point. so if you want to be 200 lbs, then 200 grams of protein per day. That would only be 800 kcal. Then thing is unless you're staving yourself from carbs to some degree the protein will be used for muscle building and maintenance. So.... the kcal don't really equate to energy or actual kcal the way you would normally count them. If you want to be 250 then 250 grams of protein or 1000 kcal. Again though, it's not like it will be burned for energy unless you put yourself into a a state where you're body needs it through some form of specific starvation. Best bet is to consume no more than 50 grams of protein in one sitting, and then wait ~2.5 hours to eat more. So if you're eating to be 250 then I would suggest 6 meals of 41.xxx grams spaced evenly over the day. Lost of guys I know need less, most guys I have helped are at 1 gram or more. I also don't know too many guys who could be 250 pounds lean. Just make sure you drink lots of water.

Haven't tried it yet. Are you on the lappy and the hans g?

Sean maybe brought up the biggest point. It's something important to bring up with people. If you're anything but sitting RIGHT ontop of that display 1080 is worthless.
-
LED tech isn't that great for TV's. I promise you. Most of whats out there is gimick crazy.

That is a retarded amount of money for a 32". The picture on my panny is better, it is 3 years old, and was the same price then for a 46" I didn't see that price. That's INSANE.
