OH MY WORD...I am SIKED! I swear I jumped up and down in my room when I saw this topic! How does the narration sound?

Like Jim Cantore.  Haha we don't have a version with narration. I imagine one will pop up eventually

Why was the music dubbed, and why are the old Pre-March icons there? (unless it wasn't updated).

The original audio was garbled. Those icons will be used for now on the IS2. There apparently isn't a suitable HD version of the others

When did they get a table?

I kind of like it   Is the "Digital Media Center" a new feature?

I have said it before and I will say it again; I am glad they continue to make use of the old TWC studio on air.

Also, I was watching Weather Center (Tuesday I believe) and it seemed that the entire half hour I watched, Maria LaRosa was in the HD studio sitting at the desk (with the world map as the backdrop) and Jim Cantore was at the "Expert Desk."  Not once, to my knowledge, did they use the large video wall in the studio.  Maria basically just anchored the show from the desk. I found it interesting. 

Did anyone else notice this?

Might have been having problems? In regards to the Digital Media Center i think it may just be for the weather.com launch

No, that's pretty much how every WC show is done when Jim Cantore is there. He does all of the weather from the expert desk, and whoever is co-anchoring just sits at the desk and handles the news and stories.

Oh now I see what you were saying. Sorry lack of sleep made me misunderstand what was being described I still find it odd the way they do that

Confirmed there are no other cuts as of now. Same situation as what happened with Lyons. They didn't "fire" him but didn't reup his contract

Speaking of wisdom teeth, I'm getting all three of mine pulled out next week on the 21st.

Good luck! You will be just fine They give some good pain meds so afterwards the pain isn't a problem

It'll be good to get them out now and not have to deal with them for the rest of your life.  I am an idiot and got them out 2 at a time instead of getting all four pulled.

A friend of mine just had SIX wisdom teeth removed..she got lucky 

6?! wow

Wow so Apple is holding a press conference to presumably address the iPhone 4 reception issue. Apple admitting they did something wrong? This I gotta see!

Now don't get too excited...it's just an iPhone 4 event.  I totally expect Apple to play an holy-than-thou attitude and just drop the price of it.\

I just hope they hold this conference the right way...

Free bumpers for everyone!

He was tops, and he was funny. 

He knew soo many places too! He was a walking atlas

Apple is doing such an thing???

I never thought they'd do that... ever!

I just can't believe they were actually charging 30 dollars for a "bumper". It was a giant rubber band for pete sakes. Glad they are getting a lot of negative reaction for not admitting the problem. Granted its not a big deal but nice to know. I held off for a little while to get my iPhone 4
