    Energy Take 5.1- still best value option?

    Thanks for the suggestion. At first glance, it looks like Pioneer is good bit more expensive (50+%) than the other choices. I'm not saying they are expensive in the grand scheme of things, but they appear to be a bit more than the other systems. I Thanks again for the input.

    Energy Take 5.1- still best value option?

    I've not kept entirely current with all things A/V related. Is the Energy Take 5.1 Classic system still the go-to option for best budget/value 5.1 system? I have a family member that is in dire need of an A/V overhaul and this will fit their budget perfectly. In addition to replacing speakers...

    MySpace

    This discussion of MySpace reminded me of a clip the Daily Show had on a little while back http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Brv-T...h=daily%20show My favorite line is at the very end - and it's very politically incorrect.

    Natalie Portman in V for Vendetta, teaser poster released

    It's been awhile since I've been this excited about an upcoming release. I'm trying to steer away from a lot of reviews as I don't want to stumble into a spoiler. Is Poland's review spoiler free??

    Arrested Development Season 2 thread

    I haven't caught the press release, but if his show is on another network, historically they aren't very likely to allow him to make an appearance. Which is a shame, because he had some truly laugh out loud performances on AD.

    Need QUICK advice on creating a mortgage

    Best bet is to call a conveyance (real estate) attorney and spend a couple hundred bucks having him draw up a note and mortgage. Typically the note is the actual loan, and the mortgage is the instrument that ties the note to the property. The attorney should also be able to give you some advice...

    Country Wide Mortgage: anyone use them, likes/dislikes?

    Todd, Don't refi just to get away from CW. They will fund and service close to 1 TRILLION dollars this year. Even if they have a microscopic error sample, it will still be quite large based on the volume. That doesn't necessarily help you, but it is the truth. Also, remember that whoever...

    *** Official THE FLIGHT OF THE PHOENIX Review Thread

    Two words take care of my review: completely unremarkable. As Hollywood is fond of doing these days, they literally encapsulated the entire movie in the 2 minute trailer. I kept waiting for some major surprise or twist, yet what they gave us barely registered a ripple. It was an uneven ending...

    Question on making my house payment...

    Patrick G- Please take a moment to read the fine print. When you get into the details, it is not really a good deal at all. You will likely find that even though they take half a payment every two weeks, they still only apply payements to your mortgage once a month with an additional...

    I Need to get Approved for Credit Card! Help!

    Drew, I'm sure it's with the best of intention, but you are spreading serious mis-information. First, what do you consider established credit? People with no tradelines or credit scores (i.e. no credit cards) can qualify for A paper loans all day long. As Matt said, it is called alternative...
