'Found' garden tools and other useful objects
Do others have favorite garden tools, etc. made from recycled or other objects around the home? An old softball "base" makes a great cushion for my knees - discarded plastic blind slats are perfect plant markers. To carry hand tools around the garden, I use a "trough" purchased at a saddlery - it is intended for all those tools people use to groom horses!
A few more ideas:
I've used aluminium blind slats, cut up into plant labels (along with the ubiquitous yoghurt etc. pots for the same purpose).
I converted the chilled-water container from an old fridge into an interim reservoir in my greenhouse, for supplying water to capillary matting feed pipes/gutters.
Cocktail stirrers (like old biros, but better because slimmer) make good sticks for prodding holes for cuttings, etc.
Old nylon stockings/tights make very good tree/shrub ties - you can spread the presssure very widely, and they have a good combination of strength and stretchability; and they last for years outside. They can look unsightly, though - black ones seem best.
Perforated plastic bags some places sell bread in - these can be good propagators for cuttings (over pots) which requitre some 'closeness' of atmosphere, but with a little air flow.
I welded/brazed the two halves of a broken pair of old shears together, with some bends, to make a big draw-knife. This is for shaving the bark and shaping poles for making pergolas.
Matchboxes make good receptacles for interim storage of seed pods, while you wait for the seeds to be shed. Works only with small pods, of course (like violets and pansies). They allow a great enough passage of air so that the drying and seed-shedding is not stopped.
An old pair of jeans, with the legs cut off entirely (just leaving the waist and pockets) can make a handy tool belt.
Broad rubber bands, if sufficiently long, can make good grafting 'tape' (cut so as to break the loop, of course). I've used these on roses and maples with success. You can always paint the graft with rubber cement as well, if you want to improve the air seal (more likely on rough-barked plants). The rubber won't last much more than 12 months outside, though.

Trick or Treat Sign
I began by printing out "trick or treat?" in the
most Halloween-like font I could find...
I used carbon paper to trace the letters onto the board...
Using a table saw I cut 2 signs out of the wood...
I used my sample of Martha Stewart
Persimmon Red paint... Love the color!
adding a little water gives the wood an
orange stain effect...
I let the signs dry and used a paint stick to
paint in the letters...
I sanded the signs really well, added some rustys and a chain to the top for hanging.
I tried my new Halloween sign in several places around my house to see which one I liked best...
Good thing I made two!

This Barbie Collector is the "Ultimate Tribute to the Doll That Started it All!". This blonde Barbie is wearing a prom dress that is covered with all of the iconic pictures of Barbie through the generations. It even has images of Barbie's beau, Ken. The dress has a partial skirt of pink ruffles and glittered netting. Barbie is still packed in her original plastic box with the Fiftieth Anniversary tag still attached. The bottom of the box has the 2008 copyright by Mattel, Inc..
The box measures about 10 ½" wide by 13" high by 5" thick and I'm guessing Barbie measures about 11 ½" tall. It appears that she has never been removed from the box and is in very good condition. The box is in nice condition some light scuff wear to the plastic.
The pictures are not shown at actual size. Please refer to the description for actual measurements.

Terrorist attacks, the rise of hate-crimes and extremism threaten the cohesion of European societies. All of these events underline the need for a "third way", one that neither strives for isolation nor promotes animosity.

And it has to resist the temptation to exaggerate reality for the sake of its mission. By David NeuwirthMore

Why do terrorists such as those involved in the Paris attacks cite Islam as their motivation? Their actions have nothing in common with what most Muslims believe. By Daniel BaxMore
There can be no excuse for the recent attacks in Paris. However, one possible way of understanding them is to take a closer look at the bipolar "alliance" between Islamists and Islamophobia, which can be viewed as the root of these terrorist acts. Moreover, in the wake of the attacks, we must ask ourselves what freedom of speech is, what its boundaries are and who really represents it. A commentary by Atef BotrosMore

ISRAELIS and Palestinians were barely speaking to each other this week, after Israel began work on a new settlement in East Jerusalem, and a Hamas suicide-bomber on March 21st left three Israeli women dead and dozens of people injured in a Tel Aviv caf
. Daily rioting in Hebron and Bethlehem brought back memories of the intifada, the Palestinian uprising that began in 1987 and in which hundreds, nearly all Palestinians, were killed. None were dead by this mid-week, though, and leaders on both sides seemed to feel that their peace process, though deathly sick, was not finished yet. Both clearly signalled that they did not want it to die. Both were looking to the United States for resuscitation—and may get it.
After the bombing, Israel blamed Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority directly, and demanded "security co-operation", meaning, notably, the re-arrest of militants whom it had recently released. Mr Arafat's men retorted that they would not be Israel's "militia", fighting their own people. But his police were half-restraining the rioters, and behind the public recriminations, the web of discreet contacts—symbolised by a secret meeting, just before the bombing, between Mr Arafat and Yitzhak Molcho, one of Binyamin Netanyahu's advisers—was never completely ruptured.
By midweek the Americans had decided to send in Dennis Ross, their Middle East troubleshooter. Speculation suggested he might be followed within weeks by Madeleine Albright, the secretary of state. There was no official confirmation, but the second Clinton administration plainly is not turning its back on Israeli-Palestinian peace-making, as some had feared and others, hardliners on each side, secretly hope.
America's handling of the crisis so far has been slightly confusing. It deplored Israel's decision to build a Jewish settlement, Har Homa, on Jebel Abu Ghneim in occupied East Jerusalem, but twice vetoed resolutions at the UN Security Council on the issue. And although the administration publicly disputed Israel's allegation that Mr Arafat had given a "green light" to Islamist groups to resort to acts of terrorism, it later backtracked a little.
This ambivalence in Washington symbolises a wider uncertainty. A year ago, after four suicide bombs, world leaders gathered in Egypt to condemn terrorism and rally around the beleaguered Israeli prime minister, Shimon Peres. No one (and that includes Mr Arafat) this week condoned the Tel Aviv carnage. But many governments remembered their earlier warnings that Mr Netanyahu's policy—Har Homa and skinflint "redeployment" in the West Bank—was likely to trigger new violence.
Today, in his own country, Mr Netanyahu's election-winning promise of "peace with security" has turned sour. Beneath Israeli revulsion at the bombing, resentment is discernible, notably at the prime minister's refusal to heed warnings from his own security advisers that Har Homa could generate violence. Jewish Israelis overwhelmingly support the claim to all Jerusalem as Israel's exclusive capital. But, as opinion polls have found, and Mr Netanyahu apparently missed, a good half of the country was uncomfortable with his decision to exercise that claim right now, at Har Homa, in the teeth of Palestinian, other Arab and international opposition.
The Palestinians, familiar with the cross-currents of Israeli society, are urging Labour supporters to take to the streets and demonstrate against Mr Netanyahu and his policies, in the way that Mr Netanyahu himself led right-wingers in mass demonstrations against the Oslo peace process. But Shimon Peres, still Labour's leader, sees things differently.
"What would we achieve?", he asked at a tense meeting of his parliamentary party on March 24th. "If we could bring down Netanyahu, I'd be all for it. But I don't want to bring down the peace process. And I don't know if it can live for another three years. All I want to do is save the peace."
To do that, Mr Peres advocates a government of national unity, with himself as Mr Netanyahu's deputy. Most of his party regard that prospect as both demeaning and politically damaging, though that is not necessarily their final word. Mr Peres is suspected of seeking it in order to stave off his retirement as party leader, scheduled for June. His supporters, for their part, accuse his likely successor, Ehud Barak, of opposing the idea only because it would defer his own takeover of the party.
For Mr Netanyahu, admitting Labour into his coalition would seem an admission of defeat. But his modest concessions in the peace talks have seriously alienated his own right wing. He could well feel that without an accretion of moderate ministers he can proceed no further in the process—even at the current crawl. And not to proceed at all would mean, or so the polls seem to imply, political disaster.
Mr Peres and Mr Netanyahu have held a series of private meetings over the past two weeks. Both resolutely insist that these had nothing whatever to do with a possible unity government. Nobody believes them. The betting this week was on which of his own notoriously disloyal colleagues the prime minister would jettison in order to make way for half-a-dozen Labour people around the cabinet table.

Palin and her husband, Todd, have five children. Their three daughters: Bristol, 17, Willow, 14, and Piper, 7. Their two sons: Track, 19, and infant Trig, born in April; the governor carried him to term knowing he had Down Syndrome. Palin describes herself as a "hockey mom" and has a hard-earned reputation as a dedicated working mother. She returned to work just three days after Trig was born and, when she was mayor of Wasilla, she reportedly brought her infant daughter to the office regularly. The baby slept in a car seat under her desk while Palin worked. The Palins' eldest son, Track, enlisted in the Army on Sept. 11, 2007, and is preparing to deploy to Iraq.

Which Reality Star's Dad Looks Exactly Like Him?!
It's The Bachelorette Season 9's Brandon Andreen
Yep, Butterfly Boy's good looks are genetic! Brandon Andreen posted the picture of his daddy dearest to Instagram along with the caption "It's crazy how much my dad looked like me when he was 26. #tbt #dad #amazing. I know he is proud of his 2 sons!" We're all proud of you, Brandon. Proud that you managed to make it through The Bachelorette without curling into the fetal position and weeping uncontrollably about your breakup with Des.

Toxic Stocks: 5 Charts to Sell
Morgan Stanley
You don't have to be an expert technical analyst to figure out why shares of Morgan Stanley (MS - Get Report) are starting to look bearish -- the setup in this toxic name is pretty straightforward. Shares of MS have been in a textbook uptrend since this past summer, but the most recent test of trend line support got violated, leaving the financial giant's stock below the channel this week.
That's not out of left field -- all trend lines eventually break sooner or later. And while MS' uptrending price action in the channel was a good reason to own shares for most of the last year, the break is a signal for the most risk-averse owners to start selling. Not surprisingly, most trading signals come in shades of gray that synch up with risk tolerance. For the less risk-averse, shares are still very close to trend line support right now; $29 is the last ditch stronghold for buyers. If MS can't catch a bid at $29, then support in the mid-$20s looks like the next likely stopping point.
If you decide to go short MS here, I'd recommend keeping a protective stop right at the 50-day moving average.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I purchased this cabinet for my new salon. It was delivered faster than expected, which was perfect for our opening. I (a female) assembled this all by myself so it's pretty easy to put together! It holds all the towels for the spa room and has heavier equipment resting on top. It is very sturdy; I am not worried it will collapse during a treatment. I am very pleased with my purchase and would recommend this cabinet to anyone interested.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? white is white
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Quality is good.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? very accurate description
This is great. I wanted storage in my laundry room that would include a folding area for clothes. Love this.
The directions weren't clear and I had some difficulty assembling it. Once done though, it has a nice clean look and fits perfectly along side my stacked washer and dryer. I love that it has a backsplash since it can't go against the wall due to the dryer vent hose.
Fits nicely in my laundry room and goes well with the other cabinets in terms of color and design. Color is true white. I changed the handles to match the other cabinets.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The color is actually the same as online.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? very accurate

Have been taking this product for several years ... now I cannot find it anywhere ... on line or in the stores. When will this product be available? I am down to 12 tablets and need ASAP!!!
My period has been pretty easy going most of my life, though in the past few years (late 20-early 30s) I have had heavier flow, backpain, headaches, irritability, and extreme fatigue. My mom, an RN, has been telling me to take Lydia Pinkham for as long as I've been complaining. She finally just bought me a bottle and made me take it. It made it sooo much better! Every month it seemed like my period got a lil easier when I would take it. Then my mom told me I should take it every day and that when it would come on, it wouldn't give any trouble at all. When I finally listened and started taking it daily, I found that my period lasts shorter and is much easier than before. This is a true lifesaver. Make sure you take it daily!
My mother SWEARS by this product and used it for over 40 years! She recommended it to me and my sisters over 25 years ago. I was Amazed to see that it was still available! I have been taking it for a month now has I've noticed a significant reduction in my premenstrual symptoms!!!! I HIGHLY recommend this to ALL women!
After 7 years of "bad luck" I mean hot flashes, I have finally found a product that does deliver. I am thrilled. It took about 4 weeks of taking the product, but then the hot flashes just stopped! Thanks for a great product.
I have been taking this for quite a while now, at first it took about 3 weeks to really help with hot flashes, mood swings, night sweats, but it is a real life saver for me.............

Oxymoron: Fine British Cuisine
LONDON has fallen out of love with pop-up restaurants. The final nail in the pop-up coffin was possibly the French Laundry's Harrods outpost earlier this year with its £250 prix-fixe menu. You know it's over when Harrods are flogging a recession-era trend for £250. According to Google's search statistics, the rest of the world is following suit. After a meteoric rise, "pop-up restaurant" peaked as a search term in January 2011 and has been in an inexorable decline ever since.
Much of this has to do with economics. Any restaurant owner will tell you that running a restaurant is all about the bottom line. A study published by Cornell University in 2005, winningly entitled "Why Restaurants Fail", showed that 26% of new restaurants fold in the first year; by the third year this number goes up to 60%. Real profits are rarely seen in the first five years. The pop-up phenomenon had seemed to buck this trend by playing on the neophilia of young urban restaurant-goers. Capital costs are low: often based in abandoned spaces, pop-ups pay minimal rent. Buzz is generated on social media and seats quickly sell out. Because pop-ups are seen as an underdog product of the recession, there is the added "we're all in this together" bonhomie, which inspires a bit of goodwill. Few complain if the food takes an hour to appear because this is what it means to dine in the trench, and clearly the chefs are working under less-than-optimum conditions. Diners also expect the space to be rough and ready, and will forgive uncomfortable chairs and wobbly tables.
But the upshot is that diners end up paying near-restaurant prices for a vastly inferior experience. It is easy to predict that the entire phenomenon will have plopped back into the pond of obscurity in a couple of years. But not without leaving a trace: no-choice restaurants and the chefs that champion them are a-ripple.
James Lowe and Isaac McHale (pictured above) are two chefs who have decided to take the no-choice leap. Mr Lowe has worked at The Fat Duck in Bray, England, and spent a little over three years as the head chef at St John Bread & Wine. Mr McHale spent six years as the development chef of The Ledbury. Both have done stages at Noma, which was voted the world's best restaurant of 2011. They are in their early 30s and are blisteringly ambitious, innovative, passionate about British food, and quick to heap scorn on the current restaurant scene. Mr Lowe tells me that many of the world's top restaurants are "horribly dated, stuck in their ways, and, worse than everything else, going downhill". This alchemical mix of passions inspired them to open their own no-choice venture late last year at The Ten Bells pub in London's Spitalfields. Here you will pay £39 for four courses and a few snacks. Wines are available (a £10 mark up per bottle, more or less) and many can be bought by the glass.
Why no choice? Well, the pros of serving every diner the same thing seem compelling. Less wastage, as chefs won't be left holding stock because nobody orders a particular dish night after night. The costs for unused products aren't passed back to the customer, so in theory you get more bang for your buck. The kitchen is concentrating on a limited repertoire, so each dish should be of a higher standard. Menus can be painstakingly crafted with an eye to a harmonious balance of textures, colours and flavour progressions.
But the potential problem is also obvious: would you pay £40 for a meal you might hate? Messrs Lowe and McHale are rightly cautious about their chances. Mr McHale tells me that customers have been "really receptive" to the idea of no-choice, but the jury is still out. The concept isn't exactly new—Le Relais d'Entrecote in Paris and Clarke's in London are broadly no-choice, and the team behind the popular Goodman London steak restaurants recently opened a restaurant in Mayfair with only two main-course choices. It's called, simply, Burger & Lobster. The difference is that at the Le Relais you go for one thing and one thing only, at Burger & Lobster they're nothing if not upfront about their limited (and enticing) menu and at Clarke's you can go á la carte if you really want to, so there's a safety net. The Ten Bells aren't planning to offer an easy way out from their set menu, which at the time of writing included "Pig's Blood Cracker, Pork Fat & Onion" and "Raw Milk Curd, Cauliflower & Watercress".
So what kind of food can you expect at The Ten Bells? "We hate labels", Mr McHale tells me, batting away any association with foodie trends of recent years. Nose-to-Tail? "We just don't want to waste things: it's a common-sense way to do things". Foraging? "We do go and pick bits in the summer, but we hate all these foraging chefs." The message they are keen to get across is that their way of doing things sprung, fully formed, from their creative partnership—"we were bored of what everyone else is doing," Mr Lowe says.
I tried their food myself while they were still on the pop-up carousel over the summer, and it is genuinely a little different for that price range. As rain dribbled through a makeshift red tent at their pop-up atop a Peckham car park, they served up innovative food: cured pork fat and cobnuts; chicken skin and mead, and even lamb-heart flat breads with a yoghurt and anchovy dressing. The only other time I've tried food that imaginative I was paying over ten times the price at The Fat Duck. Their pursuit of unorthodox but flavourful ingredients is religious in its fervour, and owes much to their time at Noma. So does their penchant for playfully mixing unexpected flavours and textures, and—although they deny it—challenging their customers. Yoghurt, beetroot, apple and sorrel for pudding, anyone? No? How about a morsel of something that Mr Lowe is keen to introduce in the near future: a snack of crumbed and fried calves brains. "It would be crispy on the outside," Mr Lowe says dreamily, "soft on the inside, really rich. You can't not like it."
Perhaps that is the crux of the no-choice restaurant: the chef has almost total control over the experience. When Messrs Lowe and McHale talk about The Ten Bells, their enthusiasm is all about the chance it gives them to fully realise their ideals. They aspire to the kind of service they liked so much at Noma—casual, professional and anything but servile—and they want the experience to be affordable enough for their friends to come not just once but many times. Their cooking style almost needs the strict directorial control the no-choice format gives in order to be fully realised. Pop-ups freed chefs like them from the tyranny of traditional restaurants and allowed them to get out there and cook for the masses directly. Now this new breed of chef is biting back.
Messrs Lowe and McHale will be at The Ten Bells until the end of February. The address is The Ten Bells, First Floor, 84 Commercial Street, E1 6LY; to make a reservation call 07530 492986

An Information-Theoretic Model for Audio Watermarking
Based on recent information hiding theory, information hiding may be reviewed as a game between hider (embedder/decoder) and attacker, and optimal information-embedding and attack strategies may be developed in this context. So far, there is a lot of work to apply this theory to image watermarking. However, little research work is about applying this theory to audio watermarking. This paper aims to fill in this gap. An information-theoretic model for audio watermarking is presented. We use wavelet statistical models for audio signals and compute data-hiding capacity for compressed and uncompressed host-audio sources. The simulation shows that the within experimental results, the proposed system has near-optimal performance compared to the theoretical upper bounds.

Monarchs of Korea Joseon dynasty |
Gwanghaegun or Prince Gwanghae (3 June 1575 – 7 August 1641; reigned 1608–1623) was the fifteenth king of the Joseon dynasty. His personal name was Yi Hon. Since he was deposed in a coup, later official historians did not give him a temple name like Taejo or Sejong. He was married to Lady Ryu.
Birth and Background[edit]
Gwanghaegun was the second son of King Seonjo, born to Lady Kim (Gongbin), a concubine. When Japan invaded Korea to attack the Ming Empire, he was installed as Crown Prince. When the king fled north to the border of Ming, he set up a branch court and fought defensive battles. During and after the Seven Year War (1592–1598), he acted as the de facto ruler of the Joseon Dynasty, commanding battles and taking care of the reconstruction of the nation after the devastating wars, in the place of old and weak King Seonjo.
Although it brought prestige to him, his position was still unstable. He had an elder but incompetent brother Prince Imhae ( Imhaegun, 임해군, 臨海君) and a younger but legitimate brother Prince Yeong-chang (Yeong-chang Daegun, 영창대군, 永昌大君), who was supported by the Lesser Northerners faction. Fortunately for Gwang-hae, King Seonjo's abrupt death made it impossible for his most favorite son Yeong-chang Daegun to succeed to the throne.
Violence of Greater Northerner faction[edit]
Before King Seonjo died, he named Prince Gwang-hae as his official successor to the throne, and ordered his advisers to make a royal document. However, Lyu Young-gyong of Lesser Northerners faction hid the document and plotted to install Prince Yeong-chang as king, only to be found out by the head of Great Northerners faction (북인; 大北), Chung Inong. Lyu was executed immediately and Prince Yeong-chang was arrested and died the next year.
After the incident, Gwang-hae tried to bring officials from various political and regional background to his court, but his plan was interrupted by Greater Northerners including Lee Icheom and Chung Inong. Then Greater Northerners began to take members of other political factions out of the government, especially Lesser Northerners. At last in 1613 Greater Northerners put their hand on Prince Yeong-chang; his grandfather Kim Jenam was found guilty of treason and executed, while Yeong-chang was sent into exile, where he was executed. At the same time Greater Northerners suppressed the Lesser Northerners; In 1618, Yeong-chang's mother, Queen In-mok, was stripped off her title and imprisoned. However, Gwang-hae had no power to stop this even though he was the official head of the government.
Despite his bad reputation in later times, he was a talented and realistic politician. He endeavored to restore the country and sponsored restoration of documents. As a part of reconstruction, he revised land ordinance and redistributed land to the people; he also ordered the rebuilding of Changdeok Palace along with several other palaces. He was also responsible for the reintroduction of the hopae identification system after a long period of disuse.[1]
In foreign affairs he sought a balance between the Ming Empire and the Manchus. Since he realized Joseon was unable to compete with Manchu military power, he tried to keep friendly relationship with the Manchus while the kingdom was still under the suzerainty of Ming, which angered the Ming and dogmatic Confucian Koreans. The critically worsened Manchu-Ming relationship forced him to send ten thousand soldiers to aid Ming in 1619. However, the Battle of Sarhū ended in Manchu's overwhelming victory. The Korean General Gang Hong-rip lost two-thirds of his troops and surrendered to Nurhaci. Gwanghaegun negotiated independently for peace with the Manchus and managed to avoid another war. He also restored diplomatic relationship with Japan in 1609 when he reopened trade with Japan through Treaty of Giyu, and sent his ambassadors to Japan in 1617.
During his reign, Gwanghaegun encouraged publishing in order to accelerate reconstruction and to restore the kingdom's former prosperity. Many books came out during his reign, including the famous medical book Donguibogam, and several historical records were rewritten in this period.
In 1616, tobacco was first introduced to Korea and soon popularized by many aristocratic noblemen.
Dethronement and Later Life[edit]
In 1623 Gwanghaegun was deposed in a coup by the Westerners faction. He was confined first on Ganghwa Island and then on Jeju Island, where he died in 1641. He does not have a royal mausoleum like the other Joseon rulers. His and Lady Ryu's remains were buried at a comparatively humble site in Namyangju in Gyeonggi Province. The Westerners faction installed Neungyanggun as the sixteenth king Injo who promulgated pro-Ming and anti-Manchu policies, which resulted in two subsequent Manchu invasions.

Although Gwanghaegun is one of only two deposed kings who were not restored and given the temple name (the other one being Yeonsangun, the tyrant who greatly contributed to the decline of the nation), many people consider him a victim of feuds between political factions. However he did a better job of caring for his country than his predecessor, or his successor King Injo. They both contributed to invasions—the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598), the Seven Year War; and the Manchu Invasion. In modern South Korea, Gwanghaegun is considered a great and wise king, not a despot.

We Are the Night Plot
A sexy, suspenseful and adrenaline pumping vampire film, We Are the Night is an edgy tale of a provocative gang of female vampires living large, making their own rules and leaving a merciless trail of blood. The film centers on a 20-year-old Berlin native Lena (Karoline Herfurth) who gets by as a petty thief. On one of her nightly job runs through an underground club, she meets 250-year-old Louise (Nina Hoss). Don't let her age fool you. Louise is a glamorous vixen, who is not only the owner of the club, but also the leader of an unusual all-female vampire trio - the other two members being wild child Nora (Anna Fischer) and elegant Charolette (Jennifer Ulrich). Louise falls head over heels in love with the scruffy Lena and bites her during their first night together. Once bitten, Lena discovers the curse and the blessing of her new, eternal life. She revels in the glamour, parties and infinite freedom. But she quickly discovers that the endless blood thirst and murderous appetite of her new girlfriends come at a steep price. When Berlin police commissioner Tom Serner (Max Riemelt) begins investigating the women, it is just a matter of time before their day comes and events spiral out of control.- Avengers 2

You Could Have at Least Given Them Some Lobster
by Mike Stanz
posted Jul 31 2014 5:00AM
A three-hour whale watch tour off the coast of Massachusetts turned into an overnight ordeal for 157 passengers the other night.
The whale-watching boat failed to spot some lobster traps about 16 miles out, and got caught up in their lines.
It took until morning to free the boat. The Coast Guard had two ships stationed near the marooned vessel, providing food, water and blankets to the passengers, so except for being at sea a lot longer than they expected, everything ended up okay.
But here's a lesson for you: whenever something's labelled a "three-hour tour" and it involves the ocean, you might invoke the Gilligan Rule and stay on dry land.

Dish Network is doing the same thing. One of the few shows I look forward to is Mad Men, and they are dropping the station that it airs on...grr....

07-12-2012, 02:54 PM #7I don't have cable--or anything---but I watch this and am not sure the 'crap' that happens EVERY year with DirectTV and Dish would be worth it.......if I wanted extra channels.
And.........aren't you under a "contract"?.............so you signed on to this "contract" when you had X number of channels-------and now they have dropped you to Y number..............can you cancel without a penalty?
As much as I dislike Comcast...........I might be tempted.............IF I wanted to increase my TV channels..........won't be happening any time soon.
07-13-2012, 10:40 PM #8I have Time Warner Cable and have lost the ABC network.
07-14-2012, 04:16 PM #9Oh wow PC...........I had not heard this..............there goes "Dancing with the Stars"............surprised as that is one of the 'major ones'......
I'll just keep my plain stuff.........with the plain old converter box!!!
Probably makes me get more stuff done anyway..........if there is nothing on the 'reg. channels'........I check PBS (have 3) and if nothing there, I go do something else or read!!
07-14-2012, 05:45 PM #10It happens when contract negotiations are up. Most people don't realize this, but Dish (or Comcast, or Verizon, or DirectTv, or whoever) actually pay money to carry those channels. Say they are negotiating with MTV. MTV can ask for $100,000 per month plus $1 for every subscriber who gets MTV, and they want them to carry all the other MTV channels. So when contracts go up, they renegotiate. If Dish is stuck taking a huge increase and has to pay a ton more just to carry the programming, then they can either drop the channels or raise consumer prices. So it's not just the cable company's fault, a lot of times it the channels making outrageous demands.
BTW, this is also why you'll never have ala carte pricing under the current system.
07-14-2012, 10:55 PM #11the unfortunate thing is we have only one channel for local news and it is on ABC.
07-14-2012, 11:39 PM #12Oh wow! Now with me being a sort of 'news junky''.........THAT would really piss me off!!!
So........asked this earlier and rec'd no answer..............when that happens, can you cancel your contract w/o penalties?
You signed up for X channels.........and now are getting Y..............just wondering. Is there a clause in the contract that covers this situation?
