I think he means Manhattan, KS, not the NYC borough.

Danielle Banks did complete the Broadcast Meteorology Program at Mississippi State University; this is the same program that Dave Schwartz completed.

Marshall Seese and Kristen Dodd also took a similar route, as well as some others.

Who implemented the global announcements feature with the orange highlighted topic titles? I've never seen that before.

As for child boards, I think it may clutter up the board so much so my answer would be no. We do have some already in the weather and LF boards as someone else already mentioned.

Yeah, he's had them for about 5 years or so now. He has been on twc since the 80s anyway.

Will record Mount Holly star but I don't think I'll be able to get Levittown's recorded.

iTunes in general just sucks. It's way too bloated (which is ironic because Apple is known for being simplistic), and they just keep adding stuff. Hopefully they announce their Lala replacement soon with a similar streaming/cloud service, so I can dump iTunes altogether.

I hate how iTunes doesn't let you transfer songs from your ipod to the computer, which is gonna suck because my iPod backlight isn't working right and a portion of the songs were stored on my old computer before it crashed and I had to restore it.

As of 2007 the 4-7p timeslot had much higher ratings than the midday timeslot (per twcmediakit) so this makes perfect sense.

Is there a way a cable company could have 2 or more Intellistar Headends on 1 system?

for example (New Bedford) and the adjacent headend (Taunton)

and appear on different channel frequencies? (45 & 47)

I'm pretty sure Comcast's Cherry Hill system is like that. There are locations in that area that receive the same Weatherscan and same exact channel lineup and services, but different domestic stars depending on where you are.

The next Local across the 48s will take place on December 21 at 8:59pm ET. Any problems with the time of evening for those who are able to participate?

8:59? Is that a one minute flavor or did you mean 8:58. Should be able to participate.
