PicksPal.com Announces Super Bowl Blowout Contest with Grand Prize
Mountain View, CA, (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) January 30, 2006 The free online sports picks game PicksPal.com will host a special Super Bowl Blowout Contest featuring unique props and odds during the week of Super Bowl XL. The contest winner will receive a flat panel plasma HDTV. Since December 20, 2005 PicksPal.com has awarded its weekly winners with portable DVD players, and its millionaires with iPods and plaques. It also awarded the winner of its first ever annual College Bowl Shootout with an iPod and a plaque, but with the Super Bowl being the biggest sporting event of the year, PicksPal.com has also made its prizes bigger 42 inches bigger to be exact.
For the week ending on February 5, the player with the most points will receive a 42-inch plasma flat panel HDTV and be crowned PicksPal.coms first ever Super Bowl Blowout Contest winner.
Players start with 1000 points at the beginning of each week which they can use to pick games and props in all major sporting events, such as the Super Bowl, college basketball, hockey, golf and others. The picks are based on current odds and real results, so players can use their sports knowledge to win prizes. PicksPal.com players will be able to pick the winner of the big game, and the Super Bowl Blowout Contest will also allow PicksPal.com to showcase more of its entertaining props and NFL odds. The contest will feature such unique off-the-wall props as: Will there be a Burger King commercial with The King scoring a TD during the game, and Will you see a fan with a Cowher Power sign during the game? With the recent completion of most fantasy football leagues, PicksPal.coms Super Bowl Blowout Contest is an alternative for those suffering from fantasy football withdrawal. With most fantasy sports games, players must wait on other participants to pick teams and hold player drafts.
PicksPal.com, however, allows players to sign up and start picking games, establishing leagues, and trash talking immediately.PicksPal.com will also be hosting special tournaments and contests for the upcoming Winter Olympics and the NCAA Mens Basketball Tournament during March Madness. Special prizes and unique props will also accompany those contests, and if the Super Bowl Blowout Contest is any indication, PicksPal.coms prizes and props may get even bigger and better.

Plasma TV A Big Screen For a Little Room
One of the biggest drawbacks of the big screen television is the space needed for the television set itself. The plasma TV technology has made it possible to incorporate a big screen television into a small room. To understand how this change came about, briefly consider the difference in technology between a traditional television set and a plasma TV.For the majority of time that television sets have been used as part of the home entertainment system, the television picked up a analog signal sent out by a broadcaster. That signal was analyzed by the television set and cathode ray tubes lit up the screen of the television. Thousands of tiny pixels make up the screen of the TV set in three colors - red, blue and green.
Combinations of colors gave different hues as seen in real life and the result was a movie that (as nearly as possible) duplicated what we see in the real world. Digital television systems have increased the quality of the picture though many signals are still in...
