The size of the TV you get will be determined by the size of the space you are watching it in. You can maximize your viewing experience by choosing the right size of your Sony® TV. With screen sizes measured diagonally, Sony recommends a minimum 46" HDTV for your largest TV viewing room. For a smaller area, like a bedroom, office or kitchen, Sony suggests either the Organic LED XEL-1 TV or a 19" to 37" LCD HDTV. For a Sony LCD TV, use these sizes as a guideline. Then factor in where the TV will be displayed, such as mounted on a wall, on a stand or in a cabinet.






Some people wish they had bought a larger screen size. It’s okay to go big.

Denver Public School Investigating School For 'Dummy' Classes, Fake Students

DENVER -- The Denver Public School District has launched an internal investigation after 7NEWS started asking questions about potential fraud. At issue are claims of fake classes and phantom students created to boost the "October Count" to get more school funding.



Count day determines how many students are enrolled in a particular school, and how much money the school district will get from the state.



Several internal school documents and e-mails reveal so-called "dummy" classes set up by administrators at Denver's Contemporary Learning Academy. The "dummy classes" and the fake students who are enrolled in them appear to be an effort to falsify enrollment numbers on student count day to get more money from the state.



"The school is pretending that classes exist, which do not. It is pretending that there are students enrolled attending those fake classes -- students who are not," said a source speaking on the condition of anonymity.



Late Thursday night, security guards seized two hard drives from the school in north Denver.



Serious questions remain about whether this was an incident isolated to the Contemporary Learning Academy, or whether it is a systemic issue district-wide.



"It is absolutely unethical," said the source. "It's cheating every single one of us. I felt cheated as a citizen of Colorado and an employee of the school. I was asked to participate in this. We were exploited."



A former CLA counselor contacted 7NEWS Friday morning after watching the story on 7NEWS Thursday evening.



"These kind of practices have gone on for years. I was forced to falsify records because I was young and didn't know better," said the counselor, speaking on condition of anonymity.


Contemporary Learning Center is an alternative high school for students who have struggled in traditional academic settings. Its student body is largely male (58 percent) and minority youngsters, including 60 percent Hispanic and 27 percent black students. Nearly 80 percent of students receive free or subsidized lunches.


The high school only has about 250 students with a low student-teacher ratio of about 9-to-1.


The school has struggled with low test scores and past controversy.


CLA failed to achieve "Adequate Yearly Progress" benchmarks in 2007. Under the No Child Left Behind Act, that means the school failed to meet the minimum levels of improvement set by the state for student performance and other accountability measures.


For 2008 Colorado Student Assessment Program testing, none of the school's 9th and 10th graders met math standards and only 1 percent met writing standards.


A former CLA principal, Dave Debus, resigned in December 2007 after a male student accused him of inappropriately and repeatedly touching him. The student, whose family filed an intent to sue letter with the school district, accused Debus of ordering the boy to appear in his office on a day the school was closed to students.


Yet the district attorney's office said a review of the police investigation found no cr iminal conduct.

GENERAL MOTORS WEIGHT LOSS DIET

GENERAL MOTORS WEIGHT LOSS DIET




The following diet and health program was developed for the employees and the dependents of General Motors Inc., US of A. The program was developed in conjuration with the grant from the US Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration. It was field tested in the Johns Hopkins Research Center and was approved for distributed by the Board of Directors of General Motors Corporation at a general meeting on August 15, 1995.

General Motors Corporation wholly endorsed this program and is making it available to all employees and families. This program will be available at all General Motors food service facilities. It is the Management’s intention to implement a welfare and fitness program for everyone.

This program is designed for a target weight loss of 5-6 Kg. per week. It will also improve your attitude and emotions because of its systematic cleaning effects. The effectiveness of this seven day plan is that the foods eaten burn more calories than they give to the body in caloric value. This plan can be used as often as you like to without any fear of complications. It is designed to flush your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well being. After seven days you will begin to feel lighter by atleast 10 pounds. You will have an abundance of energy and an improved disposition.

During the seven days you must drink 10 glasses of water each day.



DAY ONE: All fruits except bananas. Your first day will consist of all fruits you want. It is suggested you consume lots of melons the first day, especially watermelon and cantloupe.





DAY TWO: All vegetables. You are encouraged to eat all raw and cooked vegetables of your choice. There is no limit on the amount of type. Avoid oil and coconut while cooking vegetables. Have large boiled potato for breakfast.





DAY THREE: Any mixture of fruits and vegetables of your choice. Any amount, any quantity. No bananas yet and no potatoes today.





DAY FOUR: Banana and milk. Today you will eat as many as eight bananas and drink three glasses of milk. You can also have 1 bowl of vegetable soup.





DAY FIVE: Today is feast day. You will eat 1 cup of rice. You also have to eat about six whole tomatoes and drink 12 glasses of water today to cleanse your system of the excess uric acid you will be producing.



DAY SIX: Today is another all vegetables day. You must eat 1 cup of rice today and eat all the vegetable you want cooked and uncooked to your hearts content.



DAY SEVEN: Today your food intake will consist of 1 cup rice, fruit juice and the vegetables you care to consume. Tomorrow morning you will be five Kgs lighter than 1 week ago.



If you desire further weight loss, repeat the program again. Repeat the program as often as you like, however, it is suggested that you rest for three days before every repetition.



I lost 6 lbs in my last diet. Losing weight is 100% sure
