I had the KitchenAid and liked it well enough, but since we got the VitaMix I've been legitimately shocked by the difference. The KitchenAid is great for smoothies, shakes and margaritas , but try blending watercress or celery and you'll find that it simply doesn't have the oomph to pulverize plant fibers and come

Vitamix 5200 is the choice, end of discussion. I never understood how it could be worth it until I used one - making watercress soup, or hummus, in this vs. a $120 KitchenAid will make you realize that the KitchenAid is the ripoff. And the 750 series can't do anything that the 5200 can't do, it just does it with

Steve Bisciotti looks like a guy that hopes you won't call his wife because he doesn't want there to be any misunderstandings.

The biggest problem Yeungling has in Boston is that we already have a once-regional, now-mass-marketed hometown lager for our baseball-becapped bros, available on tap at every bar within a 200-mile radius (it seems to be a legal requirement), and by any objective measure, Sam Adams Boston Lager is better than

You'll know it's real when Brady starts working it into the snap counts.

Spanking your kid, or disciplining him with a switch, is called "parenting." Did Peterson discipline his son, or beat his son? Yes, there is a difference, and as of now it is legitimately too soon to know.

Huh. So that's where Jacksonville is.

Ten figures is a lot of figures - more than Pierce has made, certainly. He's allegedly worth around $70 million, which is a lot, but not enough to never run out of money.

Flying a chartered Boeing that goes for $5,000-$10,000 an hour is why athletes go broke.

The Samsung here is not an OLED screen. If it were OLED I'd feel very differently. They're asking you to pay $120k for inferior technology that doesn't work well at large measurements.

"Considering that, LEDs have far better contrast and brightness than a projector."

If you're going to be putting your TV in a room with lots of lights and windows, then yes, a LED probably can put out more light, and so might be the better choice, but that greater amount of light is the only advantage, and you'll be sacrificing a bunch of contrast and viewing angle. And why on earth would you put a

At this size, LED makes no sense, period. You can get a much better picture (better viewing angle, better contrast ratio) from a high-quality projector with a high-quality screen - curved if you want it that way - for a tiny fraction of the cost.

Anyone dumb enough to buy this TV deserves to lose $120,000. I hope they sell a million of these.

We're all dating ourselves for saying this - I have kids in my office who were in third grade when Suck.com went dark. But it's easily the biggest cultural loss from the early Internet, in my view..

My favorite thing about German: the fact that "Video-Highlights" is a word.

Jeez, NSFW tag much?

Was going to say pretty much the same thing, though I don't know that I'd go so far as to say "sanctionable." The "constitutional rights" claim is so bad it's like he got it from the comments below a NY Post story.

The Times did a story a couple of years back about the (7-foot-wide) Spite House in Alexandria, which my wife and I have promised to each other that we'll buy if it ever goes on the market:

"12 inches > 1 foot, 3 feet > 1 yard, 22 yards > one chain, 1760 yards > 1 mile ?"
