General Discussion / 13-year-old girl denied record-breaking trip around the world

« on: August 27, 2009, 02:10:43 PM »

Read Story Here

So apparently, this 13-year-old dutch girl wants to beat Zach Sunderland's (the record holder from California) record for being the youngest person to sail all around the world. Dutch Authorities are denying this to happen because of safety, but her parents are supporting this decision.

I'm afraid I will have to stand by with the authorities' decision. I mean, she's 13. She's too young to go out on an extreme adventure on her own! If her parents have gone with her on this then that would be okay, but alone on the ocean where there are pirates, sharks, hurricanes, etc. is extremely dangerous.

Programming and Graphics / Hurricane Week: Extreme Impact

« on: August 10, 2009, 02:20:51 PM »

This week it's HURRICANE WEEK: EXTREME IMPACT. The programming schedule is pretty much the same thing as the "Without Mercy" week back in June. The 8 PM hour of WC and the 2 AM hour of WC will be replaced with long form.

Also. According to my guide, there's an old special going to air at 8:30 ET; called "In His Own Words: Brian Williams on Hurricane Katrina". NBC's Brian Williams tells his side of the story on Hurricane Katrina. It says it's first aired in 2005 so I'm assuming it's not new.

Emulator Videos / Anistorm's Emulator Clips

« on: July 25, 2009, 02:18:35 PM »

So last night I installed the WeatherSTAR 4000 emulator just to try it out. And IMO it was worth it putting it all together! This morning I just finished with one.
So now I'm gonna start a topic where I will add some of my emulator clips. I won't be doing this very often because of A. I'm still learning, B. I'm a newbie and/or C. I'm busy at times. But overall, I'm glad finally have the time to have put this all together.

The emulator I made is a 2-min flavor that doesnt contain the travel cities forecast. (I will make a full flavor on the next emulation I will make very soon). Features cities all around the Imperial Valley, and regional cities such as San Diego and Yuma, AZ. The song in the video is "Letting Go" by Ryan Farish.

Enjoy! And comments are welcome.

Everything Else TWC / TWC is now regretting being owned by NBC???

« on: July 10, 2009, 03:54:31 PM »

The Weather Channel's Facebook Status:

"I really miss the days when TWC was owned by Landmark Communications"

WOW. Once I read this I was shocked! This is an actual status from TWC's FB page. There are some feedback to that. I don't know who was the one that post it and this person that made the status is posting with other users as well...

Opinions?

Questions, Comments, Suggestions / Mibbit

« on: May 23, 2009, 02:39:41 PM »

Last night when I was on the TWCT stream, apparently Mibbit, the stream's chat client has been terminated. When I mean terminated, the Ustream server banned Mibbit's IP address so now no member can't get on the stream chat. The server has done this before, it has done to me twice when I was on at my college. I'm pretty sure this Mibbit IP ban is permanent because I still can't get on. And IMO I REALLY don't like the Ustream chat client. Even though they fixed some tweaks...
