I miss CompUSA. There was a lot of those here but most of them closed in 2006. There was still one not far from where I live after that but I don't think that's there anymore either.

I worked at the one you're referring to from September 2007 to March 2008... I can promise you I helped demolish the inside of that place with sledge hammers March 3 and March 4... I guarantee you it's not there anymore It's a Modell's now.

the interactive studio tour says there's 11 possible set configurations for the anchor desk.... There's the one they use for YWT/Evening Edition, the one they used to use for First Outlook, the one they use for First Outlook now/Weather Center/A&B/Weekend Now, the one they use for Day Planner/PM Edition/Weekend View, the one they use for Evening Edition After Dark/Sunrise Weather/Weekend Outlook... that's 5.... what are the other 6 possible set configurations? I have yet to actually see them use them or else I'm blind and have just not noticed...

Whoa, someone forgot to update the TWC mailing labels.

They still say "Bringing weather to life"!?

in technical terms, they never really retired that slogan....

OK, could someone help me with a  geometry problem? I need to know the values of x and y that makes AE parallel to BF, and I know a lot of people are good with math so if you could please help, thanks. Here's the drawing, as best as i did

Well, you know that angle A and angle E are congruent (alternate interior angles), so you can set the two equations equal to each other to find x. Then, since angle B is also congruent to angle E (corresponding angles), set the two equations equal to each other, plug in the value you found for x, and you should get y.

At least that's how I *think* you do it. I've pretty much forgotten everything I learned last year, so it may not be correct. lol Hope this helps!

That would help explain the confusion... I thought you were trying to find the lengths of the lines, I was like "wtf"... Derek is correct.

4x + 5 = 5x - 13
5 = x - 13
18 = x

thus you now have X, which is 18. Now for the next step
4(18)+5 = 3y - 1
77 = 3y - 1
78 = 3y
26 = y

So in conclusion, X = 18 and Y = 26. Hope this helps.

Thanks guys! But how did you get rid of 4x+5?

substitution... I figured out X, thus I substituted the X from 4x+5 with 18 to get 4(18)+5

Wow, they began EEWC with a Tropical Storm Kyle transition graphic. O_o

I guess it's like, "gee, this is only going to repeat once tonight, so why not screw up."

Rich and Sharon both also slurred their words and invented some new words in the first segment.

From Rich:
"AHeadVit" = Ahead of it

and from Sharon:
"Drent" = Dent in the drought

the opening and first segment have been uploaded:
