October 25, 2020 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

(Stars: Brandon Routh, Caity Lotz, Victor Garber, Dominic Purcell, Matt Ryan, Tala Ashe, Lisa Marie DiGiacinto, Veronika London, Jes Macallan, Amy Louise Pemberton, Mathias Retamal, Shayan Sobhian, Adam Tsekhman, Jasmine Vega, and Arthur Darvill). As we reach the conclusion of season four, a demon named Neron has possessed the body of Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh), leaving John Constantine (Matt Ryan) to wrest Ray’s soul from the hands of Astra Logue (Olivia Swann), the “innocent girl” he failed to rescue from Hell years all those long years ago. Meanwhile, up in our world, Sara Lance (Caity Lotz) and her girlfriend Ava Sharpe (Jes Macallan) must deal with a magical creature-fueled paranoia. Harvesting souls via an insidious Palmer Tech app, Neron is poised to “Make Earth Hell Again.”

To make matters worse, Sara’s Timeship has been turned into a Noah’s Ark for various unruly monsters and magical creatures. Oh, and Ava’s Time Bureau was taken over by an evil Fairy Godmother. To defeat Neron, the Legends realize in the end that they will have to sacrifice one of their own. But it gets way worse…

In attempting to change her future, Zari Tomaz (Tala Ashe) will accidentally change not just the past she shared with Nate Heywood (Nick Zano), but fundamentally change who the Legends are in season five. Can our team go back to who they were next season? Can a reformed arsonist turned romance novelist Mick Rory (Dominic Purcell), a half-werewolf named Mona Wu (Ramona Young), and a punk rocker shapeshifter named Charlie (Maisie Richardson-Sellers) stop the literal Hell that Astra unleashes on the world in the finale? And what happens when the Legends awaken the original guardians of Time (no, not the Time Masters, sillies, that was season one!) who wish to erase everything the Legends have “screwed up for the better” over the past four seasons?

The contest is for one Blu-ray copy of Legends of Tomorrow: Season 5.
The contest ends on October 28, 2020 at 11: 59 pm.

The LG OLED TV is Bigger and Better Looking Than Ever

January 25, 2019 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

All of the TV’s in my house in the past have been smaller but recently I’ve been looking at moving things around and replacing an older TV with a much larger one and this 77’’ class LG OLED C8 TV that I recently saw at Best Buy just blew my mind. This TV was huge and in watching it I could tell that this TV would definitely give an amazing home theater experience, which is perfect for my family!

The color and clarity on this TV was remarkable. As I sat and watched the TV at the store I found that the larger screen truly drew me in. The TV works with all technology and makes 4K movies, TV shows and more explode on the big screen.

LG OLED C8 TV

The LG OLED TV’s advanced HDR also enhances each scene to 4K quality, and its stellar Intelligent Processor completely maximizes picture quality by producing images with vibrant, rich colors, not to mention sharpness, and depth.

Even better is that you can also get this TV in both a 55 and 65 inch screen, so no matter what size you are trying to find you have a lot of great options. Some of the models are below.

Not only does this TV have amazing color and clarity but it is also a very smart TV. LG TVs with AI ThinQ® have Google Assistant built right in, so you can control your compatible smart home devices using just your voice!

I also talked to the Best Buy employee at the store and found out that you can create a hub for smart devices in your home. I love that it works with my Amazon Alexa. (DISCLAIMER: Service limited to certain languages. Some features require 3rd party service subscription. Google Home and Amazon Alexa devices sold separately.)

You can even control your TV with voice commands to change picture settings (ex. movie mode, game mode, sports mode etc.), change the volume of tv, search for shows and movies, control compatible connect home devices with ease. This is not something that I have in my TV now, but I love the idea of having this new control! Like many other TV’s this new LG OLED TV also allows you to launch apps like Netflix, Hulu, and much more.

LG OLED C8 TV

Beyond all of this I had already mentioned there is great clarity on this TV. The LG OLED TV has 8.3 million individually lit pixels that can brighten, dim or power off completely. This achieves the perfect black and displays a level of picture detail impossible with any other television technology.

All of this helps to match the level of color vibrancy and recreates your cinematic experience as intended by filmmakers which any movie lover will completely enjoy.

The last thing I will mention is how thin this TV is. When you first see this you truly marvel at how thin it is. It has a sleek, slim form and the ultra slim design goes with any room. Because of how thin it is the LG OLED TV can be easily wall-mounted or you can place it on a stand.

LG OLED C8 TV

Other fantastic features:

Cinematic Sound at Home with Dolby Atmos®: Dolby Atmos transports you with moving audio: crickets chirping all around, a monster roaring from behind, or a plane soaring overhead.
Dolby Atmos content creates a more detailed sound experience that appears to come from everywhere for a wonderfully realistic, immersive experience that puts you inside the story. *
Premium Content choices: LG OLED TV with AI ThinQ® features comprehensive support of major high dynamic range formats including Dolby Vision™ HDR from the cinema, as well as HDR10 and HLG, both with LG’s advanced tone-mapping technology that provides scene-by-scene optimization. **
LG’s most powerful processor, ?9 (Alpha9) providing superb picture quality: Award-winning intelligent processor. LG’s most powerful processor ever provides true-to-life images with incredibly rich colors, sharpness, and depth to deliver the ultimate picture quality. Provides amazing picture quality that seems shockingly lifelike and real

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free

I have always been a big fan of technology and there has been some amazing technology that is changing so much, so quickly. This is definitely that case when it comes to televisions. About a two years ago we purchased a television and at that time the biggest difference was Plasma or LCD. Now that games have changed and you have that plus so much more, including 3D, and even more in depth, crisper, cleaner displays that will completely knock your socks off like the Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD.

When I went to Best Buy to experience the Samsung 4k Ultra SUHD Television, I was amazed at first the amazing colors and picture that you get when watching this. Asking one of the representatives from the store I came to find out that the Samsung 4K SUHD television is powered with Nano-crystal technology which is new to the market. The display itself has what is called an immersive curve and really gives you the feeling of depth when you watch. screen portrays a greater sense of depth.

As I watched the display and the clips that cycled on the display, the amount of colors that you saw on this was remarkable. The definition and contrast was better than any other television I have watched in the past. I even found out that the television has something called Sart View 2.0 which allows you to watch your TV from your mobile device – talk about cutting edge!

When I went to the store that were showing an exclusive sneak peek of Jurassic World on the Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD television in the Samsung Entertainment Experience Shop at the Best Buy I visited. I found out that this was only for a limited time only from 5/31-6/13 at some of the stores, so I definitely felt lucky and pleased as I am looking forward to seeing this new movie and the clip on this television just made the movie come alive! If you want to find out more about this limited experience, visit BestBuy.com/JurassicWorld

If you have never experienced the Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD television, you have to! You will be amazed at the difference that you will see and hear.

Also, it is a great time to consider this because between now you can save up to $1500 on Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD TVs at Best Buy stores May 31st – June 13th. So check this Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD TV out for yourself, you will not be disappointed!

PBS’ Trash to Treasure Competition Launches Nationwide on April 5th

March 28, 2010 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

In celebration of the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, Design Squad is launching the nationwide 2010 Trash to Treasure competition on April 5th at PBSKIDSGO.org/designsquad/ contest. Following the success of last year’s inaugural Trash to Treasure contest, kids across the country ages 5-19 are once again challenged by PBS’ Emmy® and Peabody Award-winning series to recycle, reuse and re-engineer everyday materials into new inventions. Three young innovators will win a trip to Boston to see their designs built and have the process chronicled for an upcoming episode of the engineering TV series.

According to Design Squad executive producer Marisa Wolsky, “This is an opportunity for kids to give a second life to an object they or their household would have otherwise discarded. We expect that this year’s entries will run the gamut, from trying to fill a pressing societal need to offering something whimsical and fun.”

The rules are simple. The invention should fit within one of the three categories: move things or people (Mobility), protect the environment (Environmental), or be used for indoor or outdoor play (Play). The invention also needs to be made of at least two repurposed materials (such as fabric, paper, plastic, small electronics, wheels, clamps, springs, batteries, hardware, wood, bike parts, string, rubber bands, cardboard, kitchen gadgets, etc.) Kids will be given online tools to sketch out their ideas or upload a photo. (Kids don’t need to actually build their invention in order to enter.)

Last year’s winner, Max Wallack, 13, inventor of the “Home Dome”–a temporary shelter for homeless people and disaster victims —gives this advice to this year’s entrants, “Identify a problem and then try to come up with a solution to it. Be prepared to make several attempts at designing before one design jumps out as the right one.”

Three winners will be selected from this year’s entrants to come to Boston to work side-by-side with the team at the award-winning global innovation design consultancy Continuum and see their idea come to life. At Continuum, their winning designs will be prototyped and the process will be chronicled by the team behind Design Squad. Their stories will be shared with a national audience on an upcoming episode of the Design Squad series and website PBSKIDSGO.org/designsquad. Twenty-five finalists will have their ideas showcased on the series website. The nationwide contest is open for ages 5-19 and will launch online on April 5. Entries will be accepted through September 5, 2010 at PBSKIDSGO.org/designsquad/PBSKIDSGO.org/designsquad/contest.

For a video about last year’s winner and his Home Dome invention check out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJAaMQuEFl8

Design Squad Online–PBSKIDSGO.org/designsquad
The Design Squad website gets kids into the action with videos, games, and a space to get creative and offers full-length streams of Design Squad episodes in a full-screen video player. The site also features an online gallery space that allows visitors to brainstorm and sketch their own design ideas, share their designs, and see what others are up to. And the site’s popular “DESIGNit, BUILDit, FIDGit” game continues to challenge players to think fast and solve puzzles.

About Design Squad
Design Squad is a reality competition show aimed at kids and people of all ages who like reality or how-to television. The program was launched in 2007 by the producers behind ZOOM and FETCH! with Ruff Ruffman, with the goal of getting viewers excited about engineering and the design process. And it worked. After researching the impact of the TV series, website, and educator’s guide, an independent evaluator found a significant jump in young people’s learning and a uniformly positive, enthusiastic response from viewers, educators, and kids.

PBS KIDS® Series Between the Lions® Kicks Off Fourth Annual Roadshow Friday, April 30

March 28, 2010 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Lions and stories and music, oh my! For nearly ten years, the Emmy® Award-winning PBS KIDS series Between the Lions has given children the tools they need to master key literacy skills. This spring, Between the Lions sets out on its fourth annual Roadshow, continuing its tradition of making learning fun, and traveling to four cities to educate and entertain fans with live, interactive puppet shows.

In celebration of two Emmy wins in 2009 (including an award for “Outstanding Pre-School Children’s Series”) and the series’ upcoming tenth anniversary, the Lions are especially excited to share their love for reading during the Roadshow. And for the first time ever, Theo and his cub Leona will roar into Macon, Georgia, to participate as a “mane” act at the Georgia State Fair, which has provided safe and wholesome family entertainment since it first began in 1846. Between the Lions will also travel to Atlanta, GA; Columbia, SC; and Charlotte, NC, performing at local family-friendly venues.

Between the Lions’ Roadshow performances are designed to bring the television series to life, encouraging children to read, sing along with the Lions, and recognize words in the world around them. Engaging and animated books such as Is Your Mama a Llama? and Click, Clack, Moo will encourage audience participation, and Aaron Nigel Smith, founder of FUNdamentals of Music and Movement, will be back to join the Roadshow, adding his original award-winning music to the mix.

“We’re looking forward to performing at new venues this year, including the iconic Georgia State Fair,” says Judy Stoia, Executive Producer of Between the Lions at WGBH Boston. “This is the first time we’ve been part of such a large statewide event, and doing so will allow us to reach more kids and families.”

“Theo and Leona can’t wait to take their show on the road and get the opportunity to meet their fans up close, in person. As always, the Lions will offer a roaring good time for kids and parents alike with entertaining sing-alongs, stories, and more,” adds Chris Cerf, Executive Producer for Sirius Thinking, a co-producer of the series.

Tour Dates and Venues
Catch Theo and Leona’s live performances in Atlanta, GA on Friday, April 30 (venue TBA). Next, they spend five days at the Georgia State Fair in Macon, GA from May 1-5. Finally, the lions travel to Columbia, SC on May 6 and Charlotte, NC from May 7-8 (venues TBA).

Between the Lions Takes Pride in Proven Success Stories
Research has proven the impact of Between the Lions, including a recent University of Pennsylvania study, which demonstrated that preschoolers at risk for reading failure made significant gains in reading skills after using an educational curriculum based on Between the Lions. Another study found that kindergarten students who viewed the series significantly outperformed non-viewing peers and gained skills at a faster rate.*

About Between the Lions
Between the Lions is a multimedia educational initiative created to help children ages three to seven acquire beginning reading skills and a love of reading. Built around a curriculum that incorporates the most recent scientific research in literacy instruction, each episode features an engaging variety of animation, puppetry, live action, and music.
