Had no idea those commercials were national... since I only see them on the local stations here.

No, it's the study of meteorites.

Is Barack Hussein Obama related to Saddam Hussein?

Could also be due to the possible phasing out of the full-screen LOT8s products. I mean christ every few months they're cutting back on them more and more.

Has anyone noticed how NWS uses "Washington's Birthday" on their text based forecasts now instead of "Presidents' Day"? What's the deal with that?
Happy Washington's Birthday (observed)! :P  I remember answering your question last year, and Trevor just did again above.
Yeah sorry forgot about the post i made last year lol

Do you know the exact date in which the AMC-11 analog signal will go dark?
That hasn't been announced yet.

Angled maps are the "thing" in broadcasting these days.

All people I've spoken to from my local media outlets still say TWC's naming convention for winter storms is insane.

However, packaging rebroadcasts as "live"... that's just not kosher.  If the word "live" is in a program title, viewers expect it to actually be a live broadcast.
Well if you think of it there are other shows have "Live" in the title and are not necessarily live. Examples include "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and "Emeril Live"

You also have a good point about TWC always having taped broadcasts. This held true even as recent as the Evening Edition era as the 2-4am hours were a reprise of 12-2am.

We've had 5.4" as measured at the airport so far this season. It sucks, but at least we've already last winter's total snowfall of the season of 4 inches. xD So far we've had some flurries and snow showers almost every day this week which had brought a light dusting to grassy surfaces and parking lots.
