Diablo III: "Foolish Nephalem!"

Not that anyone particularly cares, but this is where I've been the last few weeks:

That's right, fighting back the forces of hell in Sanctuary. I assume there's a goodly chunk of users here at RolePlayGateway who have been playing, regardless of whatever server issues they've been facing. If any of you play, and want to add me, go for it.

I can't recall the numbers after my BattleTag right off the bat, but the email I used is wuthuhoh@hotmail.com.

I have a level 52 Wizard, and a level 3 Monk. They play Bridge together, sometimes, on Saturdays.

See you on the other side?

How climate change destroyed one of the world's largest civilizations

Located in present-day India and Pakistan, the Harappan civilization fell victim to shifting monsoon patterns, a new study has found.?

By Charles Choi,?LiveScience Contributor / May 30, 2012

The mysterious fall of the largest of the world's earliest urban civilizations nearly 4,000 years ago in what is now India, Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh now appears to have a key culprit ? ancient climate change, researchers say.

Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia may be the best known of the first great urban cultures, but the largest was the Indus or Harappan civilization. This culture once extended over more than 386,000 square miles (1 million square kilometers) across the plains of the Indus River from?the Arabian Sea?to the Ganges, and at its peak may have accounted for 10 percent of the world population. The civilization developed about 5,200 years ago, and slowly disintegrated between 3,900 and 3,000 years ago ? populations largely abandoned cities, migrating toward the east.

"Antiquity knew about Egypt and Mesopotamia, but the Indus civilization, which was bigger than these two, was completely forgotten until the 1920s," said researcher Liviu Giosan, a geologist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts. "There are still many things we don't know about them." [Photos: Life and Death of Ancient Urbanites]

Nearly a century ago, researchers began discovering numerous remains of Harappan settlements along the Indus River and its tributaries, as well as in a vast desert region at the border of India and Pakistan. Evidence was uncovered for sophisticated cities, sea links with Mesopotamia, internal trade routes, arts and crafts, and as-yet undeciphered writing.

"They had cities ordered into grids, with exquisite plumbing, which was not encountered again until the Romans," Giosan told LiveScience. "They seem to have been a more democratic society than Mesopotamia and Egypt ? no large structures were built for important personalitiess like kings or pharaohs."

Like their contemporaries in Egypt and Mesopotamia,?the Harappans, who were named after one of their largest cities, lived next to rivers.

"Until now, speculations abounded about the links between this mysterious ancient culture and its life-giving mighty rivers," Giosan said.

IAm 13 years old and Iam writing a story..plz tell if its good and post if ...

?Yahoo!? I said,screaming,skiing down the steep mountain, gaining enough speed to jump over the ramp like cliff to reach the other side of the Mt.Everest.ZOOM! I glide over the mountain gracefully.I Am just inches away from the cliff on the other side?i skid smoothly in between the crowd that was waiting for me.Every one was cheering and shouting my name.It all felt good until?

?Jake! Wake up.Your dreaming again Jake? I forced my eyes open expecting to picture the crowd?only to see my mom hurrying me to school.

?MOM!? I screamed.?You ruined the moment of truth, you know??

?Oh did I?Well stop watching movies late at night and get up already, or you will be late for your first day at school?.

?But its just 7:00?I say

?Summer vacation is over,remember??She yells.

My name is Jake and I Am not used to getting up early.I Am just the average guy next door and the type of person who is more interested in video games than outdoor sports because I Am NOT the social type.

So, I hurry out of my bed and go to the bathroom.Then I go downstairs for some breakfast.I see my dad sitting lazily at the table peering through the news paper.

?Hey dad? I say

?Good morning Jake,geared up for school??

?Nope? I say,grabbing my cereal bowl.

?Hey chicken?said my big brother barging in.?Ready to get bullied in middle school??

?Good morning to you too Zack? I sighed.

I poured some milk into the bowl and started gulping down the cereal.

?Get in the car both of you, I?m taking you to school today?,said my mom handing me my lunch pack.

Me and Zack exchanged glances because the last time we went to school with her, it was bad.Real bad!

Last Time

We got in the car and reached our school.The area was clear so I stepped of the car and trudged a few steps.It was going well, until?

?Hey sugar bean , you forgot your lunch pack?.

Well,that certainly did it.All the annoying boys and girls suddenly showed up and started hollering with laughter.

And it had some pretty bad after effects too.Like our class bully Billy saying ?Hey sugar bean don?t forget your lunch pack? and splattered me with my lunch just to get his cronies snicker.

And that?s not the way i wanted to start my very first day at school.Not this year.So we pestered dad to drive us to school.Which he DID NOT! He mysteriously had an urgent appointment at his office and drove away leaving us to our doom.

So we could do nothing, but to get in the antique station wagon and let mom take us.And on the awful journey to school, I thought about what Zack said, about getting bullied and all.This year i wanted to change all that.

And before we knew it we reached the the creaking old sign saying ?SCHOOL AHEAD?to warn us students that school was just a few meters away and we needed to brace our self for the worst because for us,it was more of a DANGER DO NOT ENTER kinda? sign.

And to avoid the aforementioned embarrassment,I told mom to stop a few
feet away from the school gate and luckily,there were no screw ups this time around.
I know I misspelled the title.I Am Sorry.I ran out of space to write

There are a couple of places where the grammar needs to be tightened. The most obvious is that, after a character has finished speaking, you should put a punctuation mark BEFORE the end of the speech marks.

e.g.

"Hey, Dad," said Jake
"But it?s just 7.00!" I complained
"Hello," I began. "What?s your name?"

You also need a space after the punctuation, e.g. "Good morning Jake, geared up for school?"

Other than that, and a couple of other small grammatical mistakes, your work looks good! Tighten them up and it will make it so much easier to read; you will find it flows better too!

Good luck mt everest vacations

This Rock Could Spy on You for Decades [Military]

America is supposed to wind down its war in Afghanistan by 2014. But U.S. forces may continue to track Afghans for years after the conflict is officially done. Palm-sized sensors, developed for the American military, will remain littered across the Afghan countryside - detecting anyone who moves nearby and reporting their locations back to a remote headquarters. Some of these surveillance tools could be buried in the ground, all-but-unnoticeable by passersby. Others might be disguised as rocks, with wafer-sized, solar-rechargeable batteries that could enable the sensors' operation for perhaps as long as two decades, if their makers are to be believed.

Typhoon Sanvu (03W) South of Japan ? May 26th, 2012

May 26th, 2012 Category: Tropical Cyclones

Enhanced image

Track of Typhoon Sanvu (03W) - May 26th, 2012 ? Univ. of Wisconsin

Track of TY 03W

Late on May 23, the JTWC upgraded Sanvu to a category 1 typhoon, for the system became compact and more organized as an eye was forming. After being upgraded to a severe tropical storm by the JMA late on May 24, Sanvu?s eye directly passed over I?-t? late on May 25.

On May 25, 2012 at 1500 UTC (11 a.m. EDT/U.S.), Typhoon Sanvu had maximum sustained winds near 60 knots (69 mph/111 kph), slightly weaker than it was on May 24. Typhoon-force winds cover a compact area, extending 25 miles (40 km) from the center, while tropical storm-force winds extend as far as 150 miles (241.4 km) from the center, making the storm over 300 miles (~483 km) in diameter.

Sanvu?s center was located near 23.9 North and 140.3 East, only 100 nautical miles (115 miles/185 km) southwest of Iwo To, Japan and moving to the north-northeast at 7 knots (8 mph/13 kph). Sanvu continues to churn up rough seas, and the Joint Typhoon Warning Center reported that wave heights in the region are as high as 31 feet (9.4 meters).

Let's End The Confusion About Real Estate Photography Copyright

For as long as there has been professional real estate photography there?s been total confusion about who owns the copyright to real estate photography. agbeat.com has a good example of the crazy TOS of most MLSs. There are only very a few exceptions. Here?s the situation:

  1. Real estate photographers believe and behave like they own the copyright (which I believe they do if this was settled in a court case).
  2. Listing agents for the most part don?t care about, pay attention to or understand copyright and photo licensing. They just do whatever?s necessary to get their listing online ASAP.
  3. MLSs are concerned about the potential legal risk of having copyrighted photos that they don?t own the copyright to in their listing databases that they syndicate to large number of real estate sites, so they say in their terms of service that the act of uploading photos transfers the copyright to the MLS or specify that no copyrighted photos can be uploaded to their MLS.

This can?t be rocket science! I cannot see why it isn?t possible to have a TOS agreement that works for all parties here. It would say the photographer or whoever created the photos owns the copyright (standard intelectual property law since they created the photos) and the creator of the photos grants a limited use license to the listing agent and the MLS that allows both the agent and the MLS to do whatever they need to do to take care of business. The listing agent would have the photographer sign this page and adds it to the 30 or so other pages of the listing agreement that they file with their broker and the MLS when they take the listing.?

I think this is a good time to get this?craziness?fixed because the recent flap about listing syndication is raising the awareness of agents of who owns the listing data. They are starting to think more about having control of their listings.

I?m in the process of attempting to contact some legal people involved in creating MLS rules to see what they think about resolving this issue. Seems like if it?s solved in one large MLS perhaps others would follow suit. If anyone knows of any MLS that is already setup this way I would love to know about it. I know their is at least one in the US but I can?t remember where it is.

Online computer security is overlooked or minimized by too many Internet businesses. There are numerous security software packages available. Each company offers a multitude of features to keep your business computer safe and secure. So which features are essential? Which ones can?t you do without? Which of these features are already in your business computer? Most vendors sell the basic version of their security software and sell the premium versions (usually with the features that you really need) at a higher price. Is it worth it to pay more for the premium versions of these security programs?

To safeguard your online business computer the following are what you absolutely should have:

1. Anti Virus Software

Having an anti virus system installed in your business computer is a must as it will detect and remove viruses and worms that have gotten into your hard drive. You may accidentally download infected files, receive infected e-mails or have your system compromised after visiting questionable websites. Once installed on your business computer, your anti virus software will need to be updated on a regular basis since new viruses are created every day. Most anti virus software programs automatically update themselves.

2. Personal Firewall

Install a personal firewall on your business computer to keep hackers and malicious programs from infiltrating your computer and accessing your business files. A personal firewall will monitor connections that are coming in to and going out of your computer.

3. Anti Spyware Program

Install anti spyware program in your business computer in order to block or remove spyware and adware programs that have gotten into the computer. Spyware and adware programs are malicious programs with hidden code. They disguise themselves as acceptable files. For instance, rootkit programs are often used by hackers to hide spyware and malware.

4. Wireless Network Monitoring Software

If you use a wireless networking system this piece of software is absolutely essential. It will prevent unauthorized individuals from using up all your bandwidth or invading your wireless network. With wireless network monitoring software you can set up access IDs, passwords and network addresses.

The following are also good for security although it may not be as critical to have the best software available:

1. Anti Phishing/Fraud Defense Software

This security software protects your business computer against phishing and fraud. It stops various online fraud attempts to get your credit card number or bank account number. If you use Internet Explorer or Firefox as your browser, they already have this security feature integrated.

2. Online Identity Protection Software

Online identify protection software protects you from online identity theft. Most of the sites you will use for online purchases already have some type of online identity protection implemented. If you use your credit card or debit card for online purchases, be aware that it comes with online protection in cases of unauthorized purchases.

3. Anti Spam Software

An anti spam software filters e-mails you did not request or e-mails that may contain dangerous files. Web-based e-mail services like Gmail, Hotmail and Yahoo already have spam filters in place. If you mistakenly open an e-mail with a suspicious attachment or links to sites designed to steal your information, the anti spam software will scan the attachment first or disable the links so that you do not accidentally click on them.

4. Pop-Up Blocker

A pop-up blocker prevents malicious scripts in pop-up webpages from executing. Again, Internet Explorer and Firefox already have a pop-up blocker installed.

When you purchase any of these security software packages to protect your eBiz computer, make sure you keep your subscription up to date. Keeping your security software current helps keep your online business computer secure.

Most security software offers similar features and protection capabilities. There is, however, security software that is specifically recommended for online businesses. Most of this security software can be downloaded for free during a trial period before you purchase the full version.

Your business computer can never be 100% safe and secure. You can, however, lower the risk of unauthorized access to it by using security programs and keeping them all current. By doing this, you save yourself time and money.

Recommending Our Second Grade Curriculum

The goals of most affiliate marketing online promotion internet business owners are to boost skyrocket sales and make big money from home. This often results with the selling of a particular product or service. However, to sell that product or service affiliate marketing online promotion internet business owners need to alert the general public. Customer cannot buy a product or a service if they do not know that it exists. That is why, as an affiliate marketing online promotion internet business owner, you need to advertise your affiliate marketing online promotion internet business.

One of the ways that you can promote your online affiliate marketing online promotion internet business, without having to spend a dime, is by using something that is readily available online. That thing is an online social networking website. A large number of internet users, in fact millions of them, belong to at least one social networking website.

When it comes to social networking website, there are many individuals who think of online friendships or online relationships. While these types of relationships are the most common, did you know that social networking is also used for affiliate marketing online promotion internet businesses? In fact, that was originally how social networking got started. If you are a small affiliate marketing online promotion internet business owner, especially one that operates an affiliate marketing online promotion internet business, there is a way that you can use social networking sites to your advantage.

Although social networking websites are traditionally focused on those that would like to make online friends or develop online relationships, there are networking sites that are designed for affiliate marketing online promotion internet business owners.

One thing that internet users hate is being solicited for affiliate marketing online promotion internet business. This does not mean that you cannot use social networking to your advantage; it just means that you need to be careful with how you do it. Instead of creating a MySpace page or a Yahoo! 360 page for your affiliate marketing online promotion internet business, you are advised to make one for yourself, but, of course, you will want to include information on your affiliate marketing online promotion internet business.

Wireless technology, for example, has really expanded in the last half decade and now there are dozens of new kinds of security cameras and other system applications. When you really look into this industry, you will be incredibly surprised at just how much variety exists within it. This means that it is very important to do lots of research before you spend any real money. This article aims to teach you what you need to know about security and surveillance cameras.

There is a fascinating area of security cameras that are collectively called, covert surveillance cameras. As the name infers, these are hidden cameras that can be used in lots of different settings depending on your security issues. To use one example, these cameras are often placed inside of something ordinary that most people won?t notice and they don?t know it?s there. Sadly, world events have made these kinds of cameras very popular. These are very special cameras and you need to ensure that the camera you get meets your specific monitoring needs. All cameras (truly all) are made with individual specifications and conditions for use.

There are quite a few security and surveillance camera options offered by Swann. The Swann Communications Digital Private Eye security camera is one example and is competitively priced at around $200. For the budget conscious, this camera is an ideal option. This is not a feature rich camera, however. But it will do a good job and allow you to have the peace of mind that a security camera can provide. This camera may be exactly what you?re looking for, though, as there is a market for everything.

Bullet cameras are rather admired for security camera functions, as they have diminutive profiles and are capable of quality images. If you need to use a number of them for your business or home, then you will appreciate the modest price range that can be found with these cameras. The Weather-Proof Color Day/Night Bullet Camera is a seamless example. It is designed for CCTV applications which is a popular and common arrangement with security and surveillance cameras. This exact camera is able to see measurements of up to 45 feet within low light / dark lighting situations. This is by no means a terrible spec and should be a comfortable distance to make out objects in very low light to dark conditions.

There is a robust selection of security and surveillance cameras. You can find a camera to suit practically every known need. You need to know your personal needs very well before you can start seriously shopping for a security camera.

Teaching Techniques in Recent Times

Teacher training courses have not only gained importance in recent times but are mandatory to keep in line with the new techniques, policies and regulations that influence how we teach our kids. Various sorts of teacher training courses are designed to cater to the individual levels at which the teacher wishes to teach. These courses not only impart the basic know-how to the aspirant teachers, but also help to equip them with the psychological and emotional understanding of children and thus, groom them to understand and impart knowledge in a way best suitable for children at various stages of life.

India is the second largest populated country in the world and the market for teaching jobs India is particularly substantive and is ever-growing.

The Government of India is also increasing its? expenditure on education and the number of public and private schools is also seeing a steady growth along with the openings for teaching jobs India. More often than not, the prerequisite of these jobs is a proper Teacher training course from a reputed Institute. It is also to be remembered that with the advent of globalization, the English language has gained immense significance and is used as a global language to communicate with people from different states and backgrounds. More and more people find it of utmost importance to have their children well-versed in English and teachers who find themselves unable to communicate effectively in English, should undergo a teacher training course to be able to keep up with the changing times.

Just like there is no dearth of teaching jobs India, there is also no scarcity when it comes to teaching jobs abroad. Education and the skill sets required to instruct are required world-wide. There are still many nations like India, who find it necessary to train the young generation in today?s lingua franca, English. Taking up teacher training jobs as a profession is very beneficial for people, who are fond of traveling and enjoy exploring various parts of the world. Teaching is both enjoyable and a valuable experience while being a steady source of income. People, who travel abroad for staying closer to relatives or those who go abroad for higher education, often take up teaching as a profession, which will never go out of fashion and is also very satisfying at a personal level. Teacher training jobs abroad are not only available for higher levels but also for pre-school and primary levels and experienced teachers with proper training courses in their kitty, are consistently hired from foreign nations.

Even though teaching jobs are in abundance abroad and in India, teaching is never to be considered lightly. To nurture the minds of young and to mature and educate their thought process and over-all being requires a lot of determination, persistence and specialized skills. To face these demands of teaching, aspirants and already accomplished teachers must go through the suitable teachers? training courses and stay afloat with the needs of changing times and face the youth confidently.

Gas prices lower on Memorial Day: How much will you save?

Gas prices have fallen an average 27 cents a gallon since April and are 12 cents lower than last Memorial Day. With gas prices down, experts predict more Memorial Day travel, dining, and shopping.

By Associated Press / May 25, 2012

In this Wednesday file photo, gas prices are displayed at a station in Hoboken, N.J. Gas prices are down 27 cents from their April peak and should stay that way for the Memorial Day weekend.

CX Matiash/AP

More Americans will hit the road this holiday weekend than a year ago. And they'll have a bit more money to spend thanks to lower?gas?prices.

Skip to next paragraph

' + google_ads[0].line2 + '
' + google_ads[0].line3 + '

Memorial Day kicks off the summer travel season, and since pump?prices?never reached $4 or $5 a gallon ($1.05 to $1.32 a liter), as feared, economists says travelers are likely to dine out or shop more once they pull off the road.

About 30.7 million Americans will drive more than 50 miles (80 kilometers) for Memorial Day trips, according to auto club AAA. That's 400,000 more than last year, a jump AAA attributes to improvement in the economy and consumer attitudes. The number of holiday travelers grows to 34.8 million when you include planes, trains and other means of transportation.

A drop in?gas?prices?encouraged Americans to spend more at restaurants and bars in April. And that trend could continue over the holiday. Pump?prices?are down 27 cents a gallon since their peak in early April, to $3.67 a gallon (nearly $1 a liter), where they're likely to stay this weekend, predicts Tom Kloza, the chief oil analyst at the Oil?Price?Information Service. That's 12 cents cheaper than last year. Over the weekend, U.S. drivers will burn about 1.2 billion gallons of gasoline ? and spend $144 million less on?gas?than last year.

Restaurants, movie theaters and retailers hope some of that savings goes to them. Just last month, AAA and IHS Global Insight, the firm that analyzed the AAA study, were expecting travelers to spend less on entertainment, dining and shopping on vacation and devote more time to family and friends. .

Now, travelers might take longer trips or spend more on other things "because there's more money left in their pocket," says John Larson, vice president for IHS.

Still, most people need to restrict their travel budgets. For many, incomes are growing slightly if at all. Household debt remains high. And although the increase in the stock market over the past year has helped some regain wealth lost in the recession, there is still a ways to go. A recent report from the Federal Reserve shows that American household wealth would have to rise by 13 percent to return to pre-recession levels.

How to provide great customer service via your real estate website ...

Marketing Tips, Social Media Tools | May 22, 2012 | Eve Higgs, Director of Marketing |

Have you heard any of these phrases before?

Online customers are fickle.

They are only interested in finding the very lowest price.

Today?s consumers want instant gratification.

They?re not interested in quality, just quantity.

It?s hard to keep in touch with customers and leads online.

People have such short attention spans these days.

Maybe you?ve even thought these to yourself, or mentioned your observations to a colleague. It?s a fact that technology is changing the way we do business and the way we interact with each other. And, sometimes it seems like it changes so quickly, it?s hard to keep up. But, regardless of your opinions about where technology is headed, one thing is certain: in order to be successful in business, you must embrace every communication medium that your leads and clients embrace, including your real estate website and real estate social networks.

Translating what you do best?providing valuable real estate services to your clients?from a brick-and-mortar storefront to the digital world can be difficult, but in many ways, the Internet is just another channel for demonstrating your worth. Follow these simple tips for participating in today?s online economy and you?ll be thriving in no time.

Tune in to how people are communicating with you via your online social networks. The companies with the strongest social media presence are doing one thing right: they see social media as a two-way street. Did a potential customer post something to your business? Facebook page or Twitter feed? Answer back! Create ongoing communication. Also, regularly post items of value, like market trends, new listings, tips for homeowners, and information on interest rates. Start up online conversations that encourage participation.

Offer a wealth of information on your real estate website. Your real estate website should be a repository of information for your clients and prospective clients. Offer more than just listings, certifications, and contact information. Including a blog, a frequently asked questions section, and advice for buyers and sellers can show customers that you?re truly a real estate industry expert.

It?s the little things. When it comes to the world of online lead generation, online social networks, and real estate websites, don?t over-think it. Make your real estate website user friendly. Write your blog in terms that everyone can understand. Respond promptly, but with all of the information (and more!) that the client has requested. Over-deliver whenever possible. Offer value to your clients, communicate clearly and concisely, and showcase your expertise.

There are many more strategies for connecting with existing and potential clients online.

Buying a holiday home in Paris ? Paris Travel, Culture, Events and ...

According to the French Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs, historical romance capital of the world, Paris is the most popular city tourist destination on the planet, with more than six million visitors each year. Since hotel accommodation is expensive, many frequent visitors to the city opt to purchase a holiday home that they can use and share with family and friends, and rent out to other visitors. Despite the economic downturn and financial volatility in Europe, the Paris property market remains strong and prices are high. Idf you shop around, there are some decent mortgage deals for buying property in Paris, both from UK banks and from banks in France.

Paris property

Paris property

With its historic buildings and the scarcity of property stock, purchasing property, particularly apartments, in central Paris will be expensive. However, since the city has excellent public transportation, it makes good economic sense to look outside of the city itself for a holiday home, where farmhouses and villas with sufficient land for a swimming pool, can be purchased for significantly less than a centrally-located one- or two-bedroom apartment.

Buyers with their hearts set on a pied-a-terre at the heart of beautiful central Paris, should know that the city is divided into 20 arrondissements, or administrative districts, each with an average population of around 25,000. They are numbered one through twenty and are arranged in a clockwise spiral, with number one being at the very center of the city. As with any capital city, not all arrondissements are equal, and the buyer should do his homework, to identify the district which best suits his needs and budget. Some of the most popular are:

4th Arrondissement ? Hotel de Ville

Quirky and chic independent stores and a wealth of bars and restaurants around The Marais has made this area popular with both the Jewish and the gay communities. Apartments around the Place des Vosges are the most expensive.

6th Arrondissement ? Luxembourg

St. Germain des Pres is popular with foreign residents who want their own little bit of historic, cultural and artistic Paris. This arrondissement, together with the 7th Palais-Bourbon district are the most expensive residential areas in the city.

12th Arrondissement ? Reuilly

Popular with first-time buyers, Reuilly represents good value for money, with property prices 30 to 50 percent cheaper here than other districts.

16th Arrondissement ? Passy

Buyers with young children flock to Passy and the properties around Auteuil, Muette and Victor Hugo with its family-friendly stores, restaurants and open spaces.

Samsung UN55ES6500F


The Samsung UN46ES6500F ($1,729.99 list) is a smart-looking 46-inch HDTV with 3D capabilities, loads of interactive web services, and built-in Wi-Fi. It delivers very accurate colors and a crisp, clean HD picture, but the LED backlit panel could be brighter. You won't get dark inky blacks with this model either, and it only has three HDMI ports. However, it does offers some neat features, including two sets of active shutter 3D glasses and Samsung's Smart Hub menu system that makes it easy to launch apps, play multimedia files and movies, surf the web, and connect to other devices.

Editors' Note: This review is based on tests performed on the Samsung UN46ES6500F, the 46-inch model in the same series. Besides the screen size difference, the 55-inch $2,519.99 UN55ES6500 is identical in features, and while we didn't perform lab tests on this specific model, we expect similar performance.

Design and Features
Style-wise, the UN46ES6500F is easy on the eyes. The panel, which actually measures 45.9 inches, is framed by an ultra-slim (0.5-inch) matte black bezel and sits in a slender 1.25 inch cabinet (the bottom juts out to 1.9 inches to accommodate the down-firing speakers). The bezels are decorated with beveled clear trim, giving the set a pleasing angular look. A shiny Samsung badge protrudes downward from the center of the bottom bezel. The sturdy four-legged stand is piano black and can swivel smoothly.

Two USB ports and one HDMI port are vertically positioned at the rear of the cabinet and facing right. Two additional HDMI ports and one more USB port are flush mounted along with digital audio in and out connections, an optical audio output, shared component and composite AV jacks, a TV cable/antenna jack, a LAN port, and an EX-Link (serial) port. While most HDTVs this size offer four HDMI ports, the UN46ES6500F only gives you three, which can be a problem if you have a set top box, a Blu-ray player, and more than one gaming console.?

There are no function buttons on the UN46ES6500F. Instead, there's a small joystick control mounted on the lower right side of the back panel that lets you access and navigate the various menu pages. It's easier to use the remote to adjust settings and launch apps. The 9-inch wand is backlit and has all the usual player, volume, and channel controls. The number buttons are a tad small and the backlighting is slightly dim, but the remote is lightweight and fits comfortably in the hand. In the center of the remote is a colorful Smart Hub key.

Samsung's Smart Hub provides a single point of access for launching Web apps, streaming content from the Web and compatible DLNA devices over an Ethernet connection or the UN46ES6500F's built-in Wi-Fi, playing movies, and accessing USB based content. The icon-driven menu is colorful and easy to navigate. It includes the cloud-based Family Story app, which lets families share photos and videos and schedule events, an interactive Fitness app for body sculpting, fat burning, and weight monitoring, and a Kids portal featuring several?Canimals?episodes, WordWorld, and other kid oriented apps.

Samsung's Web app catalog is extensive, offering more than 70 information channels including Save Our Planet, The History Of America, and Home Safety. Streaming movie apps include Netflix, Hulu Plus, Vudu, CinemaNow, and Blockbuster, and there are over 90 free and paid games available. Education services include Today In History, the Periodic Tables, and Guitar Chords, and you get about a dozen sports apps including MLB, NBA, and ESPN. You can also access most social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Picasa) and surf the Web with the built-in browser.

The UN46ES6500F provides plenty of picture settings to help you get the best possible picture for your lighting environment. There are four picture modes (Standard, Dynamic, Movie, and Natural) with optimized settings for their respective function. Movie mode offers the best all-around picture, especially if you're in a dimly lit room. You get all the basic settings, including backlight, brightness, contrast, sharpness, color, and tint controls, as well as a handful of advanced settings such as 10-point white balance, gamma, flesh tone, black tone, and dynamic contrast ratio. Picture options include AutoMotion Plus with judder and blur reduction for eliminating motion artifacts, film mode (for content shot at 24 fps), and LED Motion Plus, which uses backlight strobe to help reduce motion blur.

Performance
The UN46ES6500F's performance was a mixed bag. While seated at dead center it provided a realistic 3D picture with very little crosstalk while watching?Sharks 3D. Crosstalk was more prominent when seated at an extreme angle but the 3D effect was still enjoyable. The set comes with two pairs of lightweight active shutter glasses which are fairly comfortable but not very stylish. They also let too much light in from the sides.

Using images from the DisplayMate suite of HDTV diagnostic tests, a Chroma Meter, and SpectraCal's Calman software, the panel produced a peak brightness reading of 101.81 cd/m2?after a basic darkroom calibration. That's not very bright for an LED backlit HDTV, especially when compared to other LED sets like the?Vizio M3D550KD ($1,429.99, 4 stars) (364.75 cd/m2) and LG 55LM6700 ($2,299.99, 4 stars) (256.68 cd/m2). Moreover, the UN46ES6500F's black level (0.06 cd/m2) can't touch that of the Vizio (0.02 cd/m2) or the LG (0.03 cd/m2), and its measured contrast ratio of 1696:1 is mediocre at best.

On the plus side the UN46ES6500F delivers very accurate colors out of the box, as shown in the CIE Chromaticity Chart below (the red, green, and blue boxes represent the CIE standard for each color and the circles represent the panel's actual reading). It also has a wide off-angle viewing range; there was hardly any color shifting when viewed from an extreme side angle and the panel did not lose luminance.

Scenes from?Piranha?on Blu-ray were crisp with natural looking skin tones, but shadow detail suffered a bit as a result of the panel's inability to display dark blacks, and you don't get the kind of punchy picture that you get from a panel with a high contrast ratio. Still, the UN46ES6500F delivers a very sharp, noise-free picture.

The UN46ES6500F is easy on power but not quite as eco-friendly as the larger LG 55LM6700. During my testing it used 93 watts of power with power saving disabled and 53 watts with power saving set to low, while the LG used 67 watts and 48 watts, respectively. You can cut the UN46ES6500F's power consumption even more by setting power saving to medium (41 watts) or high (28 watts), but both settings are much too dim.

Conclusion
The Samsung UN46ES6500F is a capable 46-inch HDTV that is tastefully designed and offers a nice feature set, including two sets of 3D glasses, lots of interactive apps, and a cloud-based family portal. Its color quality is top notch, but its peak brightness and black level performance hold it back. All told, you'll get better performance from our recent budget Editors' Choice, the Vizio M3D550KD, and you'll get more screen and save a few hundred dollars while you're at it.
