The same distance as you should for any TV. If your eyes hurt, move away. If everythong looks a bit small, move closer. In cases of blurred picture, please refer to your manufacturers handbook or a good optician.

Since you didn't specify what type of TV, a safe average is at least 6 feet away. This rule was mainly used for the older picture tube type TV's before the days of X-ray protection, to prevent you from becoming irradiated. Still, 6' is a good rule, and if sitting closer gives you headaches.

With today's larger screen TV's, sitting farther away will make viewing the entire screen much easier.

With Computer Monitors, a variant of TV, you should keep an arm's length away, in order to avoid harmful radiation.

I recommend 8 ft. for 40" HDTV (or larger). If you sit too close, the picture quality is worse because you'll be able to notice the pixels that make up the picture, and your eyes will tend to move more as you try to follow the subject that you are focusing on. Definitely no closer than 8 ft. if you suffer from migraine headaches.

Finding the right clothes to wear as a plus size woman can be a challenge. Dark colors tend to make people appear slim, so plus size women should stick to dark colors in creating a wardrobe. Black pants, in particular, have a very elegant and slimming effect on plus size women. A dark outfit can be brightened with the addition of a fun and bright accessory, such as a yellow scarf, jewel necklace, or hot pink purse. A plus size woman should stay away from neutral colors, since these tend to make a woman appear larger than she really is.

How close should you sit in front of a plasma TV?

You really shouldn't sit all that closely, simply because it's hard on the eyes and besides, you need to sit far enough away that you can easily view the entire screen and not just a portion of it. As far as getting `too close', I don't think that x-ray's are much of a problem with the newer TV's and that was the only reason for having to sit at least 6' feet away from the TV in the late 50's before they learned to design an x-ray protection circuit.


Is far and away a compound word?

This is a very stupid question and you know it. You should sit in time out and think about this stupid question you are asking. Put soap in your mouth and smack yourself with a hot iron. The answer is no.
