OCMs & Personalities / Re: OCM Kim Cunningham let go

Tsk tsk tsk. 
Why must the best OCMs get the boot? Kim is one of my favorite OCMs and it sucks that TWC isn't renewing her contract. 
Best of luck to her.

Anyone ever watched the original 'Star Trek' TV series? Leonard Nimoy, who played Mr. Spock on the show, passed away today at the age of 83.

51º Cloudy. Glad to see the return of rain around here after about two or three weeks of dry mild weather.

52º and overcast. Surely those who live in the east must be so jealous right now because I have the nice and mild weather!

Everything Else TWC / Re: General TWC Discussion
« on: February 19, 2015, 01:26:39 AM »anyway, moving on, i was channel surfing and ran into The Weather Channel HD Feed on Dish ch. 214 (Dish is my provider) which right now is airing "Highway Thru Hell", and i noticed now you see the the time and temp for all the cities in the US on the bottom half of th screen during the show and even on the ad break, the local forcecast is still shown. i checked the SD feed too and it's only on the HD Feed. in fact i have taken 2 pics of this, one from when the ads were on the other when the show was back from commercial. these two pics were taken from my tablet's webcam pointed at my TV set, so sorry for the quality
Wow, interesting pics!
I guess Dish must have gotten an IntelliSTAR 2 unit installed at their headend, specifically to only display the national weather info during long-form on the HD feed. I wonder if it's possible for TWC to send out an update to the Dish SD IntelliSTAR (if they still have it) to do the same thing during long-form on the SD channel.

Echoing Tavores, it does make perfect sense that TWC is slowly replacing all IntelliSTAR units with IS2 Jr units, considering that the IS is about 12 years old and is constantly glitching. Also, that could explain why all if not many Comcast and Bright House headends who have adopted the IS2 replaced their SD TWC feeds with HD feed simulcasts.

I finally managed to purchase a new vehicle this weekend, a used 2013 Nissan Altima. Last week, I took my old car, a 2002 Ford Taurus, to a local repair shop because of shaking, when the mechanics there said the car could not be fixed and that I needed to get a new one. After spending several stressful hours at a dealership, I eventually found and purchased the Altima. I'm glad I finally had the guts to get a new vehicle 
even though I still need to pay about $220 a month for it for the next six years.
