Well, it is time to put up or shut up. The Republicans have been running their yaps a lot, so lets see them back it up with actual plans that can help the American people. The clock is ticking. 

Democrats still control the Senate and the Presidency, so technically they still have the overall majority.

Republicans have the House majority, but it's not a 2/3 vetoproof majority, so Obama can very easily stop them.

Basically what we have now is the potential for a lot of nothingness to happen. Funny how the democrats start talking about compromise when they loose power. Nancy Pelosi for years has been public about not giving in and working with the republicans at all. Both sides need to shove it and try to cooperate. Hope their egos can allow for some of that.

I hope you're right, but with these recent moves by the Federal Reserve (and subsequent weakening/devaluing of the Dollar), I fear that we may soon see new highs.

This article does a good job of explaining the spike...

We don't have a dedicated HD thread?

We used too...what happened to it, Martin? I know it hadn't been used in awhile, so is that the reason?

https://twctodayforums.com/forums/everything-else-twc/the-weather-channel-hd-discussion/885/

It was locked due to lack of activity and because I didn't think there was a demand for it. Programming Graphics/TWC and Your Cable Company took the place of it I thought. If you all want to see it open we can certainly do that

Are you talking about the feature that "guesses" what you want to search by showing a list of websites or a different one?

Has google always had a preview of the webpage show up when you click a search result? I never noticed it before

Thats been around for about 2 months.. i hate it

Its funny how I just noticed it! I guess I never clicked in those areas before.

He's already about a good million viewers ahead of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, I actually read an article last night on Yahoo! that talked about how The Daily Show would be duking it out with Conan for ratings now that Jon Stewart has competition.

Well first showings are always extremely high. If he can maintain a lead over Stewart in a month then that is awesome. The more competition the better! Stewart has been a bit dry lately

Local Forecast / Re: Weather Warning Question

« on: November 09, 2010, 03:58:22 PM »

Sorry to bump but are certain warnings/watches not shown? Because last week some were issued for my area but I noticed that they did not show up on my IS. 

Some of the lower-priority watches/warnings/advisories like Red Flag Warnings and Fire Weather Watches are not shown. What kind of warning was issued for your area, but not shown?

I think it was a freeze warning.

You probably just missed it. I miss the ones here all the time when we have watches
