Hurricane Central / Re: 2011 Hurricane Season Outlook Released

« on: January 03, 2011, 06:37:31 AM »

Hurricane forecasts are pointless. All they do is stir up the media and the public. Then you get false sense of security when people hear things like "below normal" forecast. Even last year I have heard a lot of people say "oh those scientists predicted a huge hurricane season and we got nothing". All it takes is for one big storm to hit the coast.

Exactly. You never know what mother nature really has planned for us.

Everything Else TWC / TWC now an LLC

Apparently TWC went from being an incorporation to a limited liability company, per the station ID below. I guess this is what happens to companies when they become subsidiaries of another company?

After a couple hours... The UWN-PC is now automated, thanks to some macro making!

It now runs launch, the .exe macro, showing a screen that says that it will launch in 45 seconds, then launch the nf app, go to second monitor (RCA Out, right screen), and input my ID, and launch the program...

It also restarts (restart.bat) every day at midnight!

Noticed the streams been offline the last several nights, has this been discontinued?

I'm drinking tonight even though I'm 14.

I've drank before, but I didn't have a sip or two before a long time ago.

Your desktop shows the windows vista logo at startup?? Mine never did, it just shows a status bar at the bottom.

Not anymore.

How much longer is TWC going to call weather.com "new," and does it really make my life a breeze?

Either way, I like the "old" flipbooks that are on the IS2 now instead of the cheezeballs on the IS and various maps used on TWC.

Agreed

General Discussion / Re: Gas prices in your area

« on: December 30, 2010, 08:20:43 PM »

It's about $2.99 here. Almost $40 to fill my tank!

$3.09-$3.16. I've heard on the news that gas prices may rise to at least $5.00 by early 2012 due to the high demand. 

By the time they even get that high demand will fall. So I highly doubt that.

I'm sure by the end of next month we'll see a decrease when everyone is back at school and work.

I just hope to move up in my job and be more social in 2011.  The last month was a little rough on me due to the cold and wind, and there weren't many people around due to the holidays.

The cold makes you depressed? I usually have a lot more energy during the winter time. I have no desire to do anything under the heat.
