I'm not changing my avatar, as I personally like my picture of a Ferrari alloy wheel - it's unique. (Although I might change it to a picture of my green 1997 Ford Tauraz - that car is a tank B) )
Edit - Changed it (for the time being) to a picture of an Acura Integra race car engine taken at Watkins Glen, NY.

Student Development
For access to content available only to the St. Catherine University community please log in using your Kateway portal login.
Student Development
St. Kate's sales students have a wealth of opportunities to learn and prepare for successful careers -- both in and out of the classroom. These opportunities include workplace internships, competing in sales competitions, learning from nationally known guest speakers, participating in leading business conferences, and others. Here is a just a sampling of the many learning opportunities our sales students have throughout the year:
Every year, our sales students complete valuable internships at many of Minnesota's leading corporations and organizations, including 3M, Upsher-Smith, Ecolab, Medtronic, Boston Scientific and others. Many of these internships turn into full-time job opportunities; others help students land permanent positions with other leading employers. Internships have helped our students make thoughtful career decisions about their futures.
If your sales organization is interested in working with St. Catherine University sales students, contact the Center for Sales Innovation, Director, Mary Jacobs to discuss opportunities.
Sales Competitions
Our sales students compete on national stages with students from other universities across the country.
We compete in Indiana, Great Northwoods Sales Warm-up in Eau Claire, RBI National Sales Challenge in New Jersey as well as DECA Collegiate National competitions and the Katie's Entrepreneur Organization (KEO).
Students prepare extensively for the real world experience of selling a product or service at a competition and the benefit of feedback from professionals who are judges.
Business Conferences and Tours
Throughout the year, our students participate in many of the leading business, medical device, healthcare and other conferences that are regularly offered in the Twin Cities.
- Healthcare Sales majors attend the Life Science Alley Conference at the Minneapolis Convention Center.
- Sales and Marketing majors tour 3M's Innovation Center to learn how the company innovates new global products.
Guest Speakers
Our renowned professors use their industry contacts to regularly bring in regionally and nationally known guest speakers into our classrooms. Recent speakers have included professionals from 3M, ING, Thomson-Reuters, Upsher-Smith, Enterprise, Comcast, SuperValu, the St. Paul Saints baseball team and others.
Skills in the classroom
Students are learning skills in their classes that have an immediate impact on their careers. Business tools that organizations use in their operations are taught in the Sales curriculum.
Student Organizations
St Kate's is a member of Collegiate DECA where students enhance their business acumen even more beyond the classroom with case studies, simulations and competitions.
The Katie's Entrepreneur Organization (KEO) is an active student business club with a variety of excellent guest speakers and topics that enhance the experience of our students.

Under Regulation 013/2005 for Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE) which came into force on January
18th 2005, for equipment that you buy from Black Box
after August 13th 2005, Black Box is required
to finance the collection, treatment, recycling
and recovery of WEEE that your new purchase replaces,
on a one-for-one, like-for-like basis. The old
equipment that your new purchase from Black Box
replaces is referred to as Historic WEEE.
Under the Luxembourg WEEE Regulations, Black Box is
also required to finance the collection, treatment,
recycling and recovery of any new electrical and
electronic equipment that you buy from Black Box
after August 13th 2005, when that new equipment
eventually becomes waste. This is referred to
as New WEEE.
Black Box products are very competitively priced. Any
new increase in operating costs for manufacturers
such as Black Box is normally reflected in a price
increase in the product. However, instead of increasing
the prices of our products Black Box has decided
to share these new environmental costs directly
with our customers. We believe in being transparent
with you on any new environmental costs that our
products need to address.
Our approach to sharing these new environmental costs are:
You pay for transportation of your WEEE to Black
Box's appointed recycler in Luxembourg
Black Box pays for the costs of treatment, recycling
and recovery of the WEEE to meet the targets
set by the WEEE Regulations
Black Box pays for the costs of data management
and reporting to the Ministry of Environment to demonstrate
compliance with all administrative requirements of the WEEE
All Historic and New WEEE that arises from the purchase
of Black Box products is classed as non-hazardous waste**
**Black Box customers sending equipment for recycling
are advised that you MUST remove all batteries PRIOR to
collection for the following reasons:
To avoid the equipment being classed as hazardous
waste under the EU Hazardous Waste Directive
To ensure the equipment is classed as 'Green
Waste' for transfrontier shipment across the
national border to Belgium
Black Box has established a recycling contract with
the European Advanced Recycling Network
(EARN) and will cover any costs of treatment,
recycling and recovery of the equipment on arrival
at the EARN facility in Belgium.
It is your responsibility to arrange and pay for
costs of collection and transportation to EARN.
In order to meet waste regulations in Luxembourg,
you should use one of the following carriers which
will hold a valid Waste Carriers License prior
to producer take-back obligations beginning in
DHL Luxembourg + 352 35 09 09 www.dhl.co.lu
Please click on the link below to download the recycling
label you should use. Please complete this label
with your company details and attach it to a suitable
box for transport to EARN.
» Recycling Label for Luxembourg Customers
Under Article 14 of of the Luxembourg WEEE Regulations,
Black Box must provide annual information of
the quantities and categories of electrical and
electronic equipment put on the market, reused,
recycled and recovered within Luxembourg.
The first WEEE recycling report will cover the period
August 2005 to March 2006. EARN will
prepare the recycling data report for Black Box.
Information in the EARN recycling data
report will be summarised on the Black Box website
when it becomes available.

Bangladesh: Revoke Draconian Media Policy
Raises Fears of Increased Censorship, Criminal Penalties
This policy is a frontal assault on media freedom, which is essential as a check on government power, corruption, and human rights abuses, among many other issues. It empowers an increasingly authoritarian state with tools to go after critics. It needs to be revoked if the government is serious about its commitment to freedom.
Brad Adams, Asia director
(New York) – The Bangladeshi government should immediately revoke a new media policy that imposes draconian restrictions on media freedom, Human Rights Watch said today. Donors should make it clear to the Bangladeshi government that limits on freedom of expression that violate international law are unacceptable.
The policy was published in the official government gazette on August 6, 2014. It contains overly broad language and imprecise definitions that appear aimed at significantly curtailing critical reporting. The policy would, for example, ban speech that is "anti-state," "ridicules the national ideology," and "is inconsistent with Bangladesh's culture," and would restrict the reporting of "anarchy, rebellion, or violence."
"This policy exemplifies how little appreciation the government has for free speech," said Brad Adams, Asia director. "This vague policy will allow the government to take arbitrary action against those it sees as its political opponents and could be a precursor to legislation that would lead to censorship and criminal penalties."
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's veiled threats in defense of the media policy are of particular concern. Speaking with reporters on August 28, she warned journalists not to "cross the line" set down in the new guidelines, local media reported. She was quoted as saying: "[D]on't try to cut off the branch you are sitting on. You too will fall. I think a hint is enough for the intelligent."
The policy has broad application. It defines "broadcast" as "the processes through which audio, video, audio-visual content, like programs, news, advertisements etc." are transmitted. It would include any method of transmission, including cable and satellite, and would apply to all programming, news, and advertisements on all media platforms.
In its introductory paragraph the policy states that it is necessary for the government to create a framework for determining whether broadcasts are consistent with the history, ideology, and spirit of the country's 1971 Liberation War and Bangladesh's social, cultural, geographical, and political tradition and values. The clause restricting the reporting of "anarchy, rebellion, or violence" seems aimed at limiting reporting of opposition protests. Bangladesh has a long history of mass protests led by all the main political parties.
Because none of the key terms are defined, media would be susceptible to arbitrary enforcement.
"This policy is a frontal assault on media freedom, which is essential as a check on government power, corruption, and human rights abuses, among many other issues," Adams said. "It empowers an increasingly authoritarian state with tools to go after critics. It needs to be revoked if the government is serious about its commitment to freedom."
The policy states that a broadcast commission will be formed by law, and that the commission's duties include monitoring compliance with the broadcast policy.
Bangladesh is party to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and is therefore required to protect and uphold the right to freedom of expression, which includes the right to seek, receive, and impart information. The UN Human Rights Committee, which interprets the covenant, has stated that states may not prohibit criticism of institutions, and that "A free, uncensored and unhindered press or other media is essential in any society to ensure freedom of opinion and expression."
Hasina claimed that the media policy was modelled on the BBC media policy guidelines. But the foundations underlining the BBC policy are absent from the Bangladeshi policy. Fundamental to these differences, for example, is the BBC's commitment to independence, impartiality, free expression, and a plurality of opinions – concepts that are wholly undermined by the Bangladeshi government's attempts to control media content.
Human Rights Watch noted that the slippery slope allowed by the media policy could have broad-ranging effects and that no media area is exempt from its reach. On September 3, 2014, the government issued a ban on English titles in local movie productions. The media policy includes a provision that instructs broadcasters "to be careful about pure Bengali pronunciation, and the contamination of Bengali language, distortion and pronunciation of Bengali to the tune of foreign languages have to be avoided."
"The new media policy appears to be little more than an attempt to establish a state ideology and set a trap for critics," Adams said. "It's almost like the government is living in a bygone era when it could tell people what to think, watch, and read. The government should realize that in the digital age those days are over."

This is the best Lawyer that I will ever have in my lifetime and that I have ever had a family member has referred me to Joe and it has been a blessing. I have had a couple charges and both have been dismissed Joe worked very hard. He is highly respectable and very knowledgeable. I have made some mistakes in life and Joe has given me more than just a 2nd chance at life. He is very reliable always very responsive. He has good communication skills always lets you know what can happen and has certain goals set for you to succeed. Joe fought for my freedom, rights and showed me the right path to correct my wrongs by making them right.
Posted by a client
I am unsatisfied with Mr.Baker's performance and representation. His communication with me was poor and at times felt confrontational. On occasion I asked him to clarify his strategy and for more assertiveness, his response was always; "you are welcome to find someone else to represent you". I suggest that you do!
If you are seeking aggressive defense, I suggest that you keep looking!
Posted by Justin
Extremely knowledgeable in firearm rights. Very up front and open with options. Always very prompt and clear with responses. Did not nickel and dime for every question asked or phone call placed.
Posted by Jonas
I found myself in a bit of a jamb when I swerved to avoid an errant vehicle and upon hitting a light post flipped my truck. The perceptions and accounts at the scene did not seem to match the infraction with which I was eventually cited. Joseph listened to me for understanding and then protected my legal rights and my driving record. We went from a possible two to three point hit to my record and a $550 fine down to a $150 fee to the court on a silly non-moving trifle which most importantly left my record unaffected. I am quite pleased with his services and the result he was able to negotiate for me.
Posted by a Divorce client
Joe Baker is curently working on my divorce case. I was referred to him by a friend that works at the firm. I am going through a divorce and got my children taken away from. Completely blindsided by my soon to be ex. I gave Joe a $3500 retainer to represent me back 3 months ago and the case is still going on. I have asked him to try to settle the case for me because it is costing a lot more than I was quoted. I dont feel like Joe is a good advocate for me at all. I question if he is really looking out for my best interest. I had to give him another $3500 two months in to the case. I have spent far more that what I expected and not getting the representation I feel I have paid for. Joe's response is If I am not happy with his representation I can fire him. I feel like I have been mis-informed and have not had good strong represetation . I should have looked at attorneys with better ratings on the internet. You get one chance to make a good impression on the court and need good strong represtation. Joe is not the guy for the job.
Posted by a Divorce client
Joe is an excellent attorney. He always got back to me quickly and took time to listen to my issues. He treated me like I was his only client which is hard to find in any field. I would definately recommend him to all my friends and family.

|CSAR scoring challenge reveals the need for new concepts in estimating protein-ligand binding affinity.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21612285 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|The dG prediction accuracy by the Lead Finder docking software on the CSAR test set was characterized by R2=0.62 and RMSD=1.93 kcal/mol, and the method of preparation of the full-atom structures of the test set did not significantly affect the resulting accuracy of predictions. The dG prediction accuracy by the Lead Finder docking software on the CSAR test set was characterized by R2=0.62 and RMSD=1.93 kcal/mol, and the method of preparation of the full-atom structures of the test set did not significantly affect the resulting accuracy of predictions. The primary factors determining the correlation between the predicted and experimental values were the Van der Waals interactions and solvation effects. Those two factors alone accounted for R2=0.50. The other factors that affected the accuracy of predictions, listed in the order of decreasing importance, were the change of ligand's internal energy upon binding with protein, the electrostatic interactions and the hydrogen bonds. It appears that those latter factors contributed to the independence of the prediction results from the method of full-atom structure preparation. Then, we turned our attention to the other factors that could potentially improve the scoring function in order to raise the accuracy of the dG prediction. It turned out that the ligand-centric factors, including Mw, cLogP, PSA etc. or protein-centric factors, such as the functional class of protein, did not improve the prediction accuracy. Following that, we explored if the weak molecular interactions such as X-H...Ar, X-H...Hal, CO...Hal, C-H...X, stacking and -cationic interactions (where X is N or O), that are generally of interest to the medicinal chemists despite their lack of proper molecular mechanical parameterization, could improve dG prediction. Our analysis revealed that out of these new interactions only CO…Hal is statistically significant for dG predictions using Lead FInder scoring function. Accounting for the CO…Hal interaction resulted in the reduction of the RMSD from 2.19 to 0.69 kcal/mol for the corresponding structures. The other weak interaction factors were not statistically significant and therefore irrelevant to the accuracy of dG prediction. On the basis of our findings from our participation in the CSAR scoring challenge we conclude that a significant increase of accuracy predictions necessitates breakthrough scoring approaches. We anticipate that the explicit accounting for water molecules, protein flexibility and a more thermodynamically accurate method of dG calculation rather than single point energy calculation may lead to such breakthroughs.

Gaylord giving Marriott more management rights
Gaylord Entertainment said it has agreed with Marriott International to transfer the management of its Radisson Hotel Opryland as well as the General Jackson Showboat, Gaylord Springs Golf Links and the Wildhorse Saloon.
Word of the deal comes a day after prominent Gaylord investor Mario Gabelli suggested the company spin out its attractions business. Marriott is preparing to pay $210 million to acquire the Gaylord Hotels brand and the long-term management rights to the company's four large resorts in Nashville, Florida, Texas and Maryland. Gaylord execs then plan to reorganize the company as a real estate investment trust.
Assuming investors approve those plans on Sept. 25, Marriott will take over the management of the General Jackson, Gaylord Springs and the Wildhorse on Oct. 1. The Radisson Opryland is scheduled to transition Dec. 1 and will be renamed the Inn at Opryland.
"We are excited to begin managing these attractions as well at the Inn at Opryland," said David Grissen, Americas president for Marriott International. "Historically these assets have performed well as part of the Gaylord portfolio and we believe that they will continue to offer our group and leisure customers unique entertainment options."
Gaylord will continue to own the Grand Ole Opry, Ryman Auditorium and WSM-AM radio station, properties Gaylord Chairman and CEO Colin Reed called "incredibly important to the Nashville community."
"Nothing will change at these iconic assets, and we look forward to continuing to offer the same level of world-class entertainment that has made them such prominent music institutions," Reed said.
At about 11 a.m. Friday, shares of Gaylord (Ticker: GET) were up slightly to $41.26. Year to date, they've risen about 70 percent.

Hyper-V Program Manager
As I discussed yesterday – I have been working on converting my virtual machines from dynamic virtual hard disks to fixed virtual hard disks. There are a couple of ways that you can do this. The easiest way is to just convert the disks using Hyper-V. To do this you need to:
While this process is fairly easy to follow – it has one big drawback. The fixed virtual hard disk will take up the maximum space of the dynamically expanding virtual hard disk. For some of my virtual machines I had created small dynamically virtual hard disks, so this worked well. But for some of them I had created foolishly large dynamically expanding virtual hard disks.
Tomorrow I will document the process that I used for these virtual machines.
Cheers, Ben
Isn't the process to resize the partition inside the VM and then convert it? Why did MS create the XP mode VHD a differencing one and then make its minimize size so large? It could have been a fixed mode VHD with undo disks turned on instead of a differencing VHD.
Tried this on Win2008R2 Hyper-V and endied up with the new fixed VHD maked with a lock on the icon and it didn't mount. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Wouldn't it be easier to just put a quota on the harddrives from within the VM?
Do we have a faster method to convert the dynamic vhd to fixed size?
I have a 150 GB dynamic vhd and it takes hours to convert to fixed size.

There are no dumb questions here!
First off, depending on the con and their policies I would highly recommend pre-registering as much ahead of time as you can...you'll generally save a few bucks that way. Regardless, I recommend pre-registering in order to cut down on the amount of time that you wait in line.
If the con is in your city, I would say skip the hotel room and save the money. However, if you do have the money and/or friends who want to split the costs, I would definitely recommend getting a room. as it really makes the con feel like a mini vacation and allows you to fully immerse yourself in the con from beginning to end
As far as what to do? Well, there will be lots of cosplayers so be sure to bring a camera. Always remember to ASK FIRST as common courtesy. 9 times out of 10 cosplayers will be more than happy to pose for pictures but if they turn you down for whatever reason, respect it and move on...do not demand. And do NOT barge in a private photoshoots.
Also, there are all sorts of panels and screenings going on and perhaps even concerts as well...always check the schedule to see what is happening!
Lastly, I'd seriously recommend cosplaying if you are ever able to do so...it is so much fun and it really enhances the con going experience

spanked a cummins!!
A couple kids in a 3500 dualie with lots of cummins stickers and of course the white trash balls hanging from the trailer hitch must have heard my leave a red light kind of hard. He flys up next to me at the next red light and starts spooling up the turbo, of course I am smiling like a child. Light turns green and he jumped about half a truck length, I stayed in it. My child-like grin quickly turns to a giggle as I put about 3 lengths on him. We ran about 6 or 7times from various speeds, I won each time.
Trinity 87 perf tune helped a little, I think I still would have beat him without the tune.
Nice work. :smileup:
thought they all ran 11's:LOL: good job!
nice kill!! what year do you think his was?
Not sure what year, gen 3.
I told my brother (a diesel guy) about this. His response was, "a well tuned Cummins will leave your Hemi curled up in the fetal position" and "don't make me spend $500 and make you cry". :gy:
I beat his 2006 megacab diesel with his tuner set at 110 hp when my 2009 hemi was bone stock.
ya all i know my buddies 06 will walk circles around me
My brothers 06 beat my 07 Hemi too. That extra 45 hp in the gen 4 makes a huge difference.
a well tuned cummins will spank me easily...and I'm pretty quick... but, most aren't tuned and you probably ran one of them...
o yea...good kill man!!!

It's little unclear what you did but... the portion of the film that stayed in the canister never got exposed to anything. That part is fine. The part you pulled out before you closed the back of the camera IS exposed to light, ie. bad. If you loaded the film and released shutter few times, that part may be exposed - depending on what was wrong with your first camera.
It's usually OK to load and unload the film in day light. If I had to do it outside, I usually go to shade or if that's impossible, turn my back to the sun so as to create a shadow with my own body.

Originally aired in the United States on the Sundance Channel, Live from Abbey Road affords music fans the opportunity to see some of their favorite bands perform in the legendary London studio where The Beatles recorded some of their greatest hits. Shot on 35mm film and produced by Michael Gleeson and Peter van Hooke, the series aims to have the feel of a feature film and the sound of an album. After watching the artists spend a day at the studio rehearsing and performing, fans can learn the stories behind the songs as the musicians reflect on their musical muse. Artists featured in season one include, Gnarls Barkley, Norah Jones, Iron Maiden, Josh Groban, Kasabian, Dave Matthews, and Dr. John. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

what a stupid hypothesis is this article. But I know, these analists have to do something to show they've done their job. It's possible that when one company advertises its products, it can animate the competitors' consumers, as well. But the result always depends on the strategy and the productline of each company. So this article for me was just blablabla, with no sense. Sorry.

|Here's the UFC in a nutshell: Two guys of similar weights get thrown into an octagon ... five-minute rounds (three rounds in all, five for title fights) ... no shoes, no heavy gloves ... they can win by A) punching, kicking or elbowing their opponent into submission, or B) forcing him to quit with a submission hold ... the referee halts the fight if he feels that A) a cut requires immediate medical attention, or B) somebody can't defend themselves anymore. The beauty of the UFC? Everyone uses different fighting methods, so invariably, a clash of the right styles makes a memorable fight. You have karate guys, submission specialists, technical wrestlers, counter-punchers, pancrase specialists, even guys just hoping to throw more punches than they receive. Nobody takes a night off, everyone is fighting for his life, and there's a more primitive feel to the matches than you get from any other sport. It's the closest we'll ever get in real life to the fight scene in "Escape From New York."
|In the crowd at the Ultimate Fighting Championships, there were plenty of Vin Diesel look-alikes ...
|... and mysterious characters like these whom you knew to avoid.
|Bill Simmons' blackjack hands reminded him of R Kelly.
|Ultimately, Ultimate Fighting's action will prevent it from catching on.

What the heck is a Franchise Fee?
Why all the hidden charges?
I guess it's more marketable to say you have the:
$119.99 Package
and not the
$160.87 Package

Doing a search brought up this below: OR- you can call 1-800 comcast and speak with someone in the Billing Department too.
A Franchise Fee helps the town or city in which you reside support its cable related needs and interests - this fee is not related to the line of business (cable, internet, phone) you are subscribed to. These fees usually appear in the form of access programming channels for town specific public, educational and government information and are federally regulated.

Also this:
A cable television franchise fee in the United States, the stems from a community's basic right to charge for use of the property it owns. The cable television franchise fees represent part of the compensation a community receives in exchange for the cable operator's occupation and the right-of-way use of public property. A franchise fee is not a tax; it is a rental charge.
Franchise fees are governed under Section 622 of the Cable Communications Act of 1984. Section 622, states that municipalities are entitled to a maximum of 5% of gross revenues derived from the operation of the cable system for the provision of cable services such as Public, educational, and government access (PEG) TV channels.
You pay the fee to Comcast, who then gives it to your city/town.
Comcast employees must be authorized to post in the forum in an official capacity. Employees posting here have their names in red and are designated as employees. Names not in red are customers.
This is done to protect customers and for assurance that they are dealing with a Comcast employee.
Non-Authorized Employees are allowed to post but cannot state they are employees nor can they allude to being employees.
In other words, it's a tax.

You can't opt out of sales taxes, why do you think you should be able to opt out of these taxes?
If Comcast didn't report them as line items in the bill, they'd simply include them in the price of the service. Either way, if they have to pay them, they have to get the money from somewhere, and customers are the primary revenue source.
The reason they split them out is because the fees are different in every town, but Comcast prefers to have a single price for the services across all towns in an area.
I should be able to opt out. Comcast is giving me channels I already get free over antenna and then is charging me for them. I should be able to tell comcast to cancel those channels and opt out of the fee
Customers of other cable companies feel the same way about franchise fees.
Comcast is not the only one who recovers the fee from customers.
If you could opt out you would, as Barmar said, end up paying the fee when it's built into the cost of service.

It is understandable that the fees be paid. However, it should not be separated out of the advertised price. Comcast, as a business, rents the property for the infrastructure. Rent is a business expense, not a consumer expense. I understand the argument that the services would cost the same regardless, but that is not the issue. The issue is the change in advertised price.
Imagine if McDonald's (whose franchise owner rents the building) was located across the street from Burger King (who's owner owns the building). McDonalds advertized hamburgers on their sign for $0.99, and Burger King advertised on their sign $1.69 Burgers. Then, at the drive through menu it says the same. Then when you arrive at the window to pay, the have you eat your burger first, then pay. When it is time to pay for what you already ate, they say, "That will be $0.99 plus a franchise fee of $1.30 for a sub-total of $2.29, plus 10% sales tax = $2.52."
You ask, "What is the franchise fee?"
and they say, "It's pay rent on the building, and for all the McDonald's equipment."
It's a classic case of bait and switch, which is illegal.
The example above is not even the full story of what comcast is doing. A customer in the example above could go to Burger King the following day. Comcast, however, used to make you sign a contract agreement for required service period. The only reason they don't anymore is they lost a lawsuit over the tactic, and the minor change of removing the service agreement and allowing for a 30 day money back guarantee is a legal loop hole to the tactic.
It's time for another class action. Are there any lawyers out there ready to take on the task?
TheyThey'd should tell you these fees up front when you are signing on as well as telling you theRe is an activation fee which they don't. They are crooks!
I noticed the Franchise Fee this month after my cable bill went up $30. I recently got HD and knew my bill was going to go up $9.95/month but then, of course, they tack on Franchise Fees, which was another $5.32 per month, plus. I was forced to downgrade my Internet to Economy Plus just to save some money. I also think I'm going to be getting rid of HD. I don't really notice a big difference between regular TV and HD. I've had it with Comcast going up and up. They also recently just started charing $1.99 PER OUTLET for anyone that has an adapter when they went from analog to digital. Their bill said the DTA was $.50 per outlet, but the customers service rep told me last night that it was a misprint, and they will be correcting this. They raise prices every 6 months, and I find myself holding my breath when each bill comes in. They upgrade their buildings, but want the customers to pay for it. I'd be willing to bet that if they lowered prices, more people would join them because Verizon sucks, too.
By rights the percentage should come from comcasts revenues and a tax on them, but somehow they interpret the law as charge the added percent from the customer. Theres a reason monopolys are outlawed. Comcast-worst customer service ever.
I agree that this indeed is a fee that must be paid somehow and will come from someone. I am just wondering where this line item lands on the balance sheet at tax time for companies that use this line item fee. I will look further but, I would think that the businesses are writing this off as an buss. expense. I would love to total all of these fees from the electric co., phone co, cell phone co., water district, waste management co., etc... and deduct these from my own taxes. I'm just saying.
Thanks for the info. I will look into this regulation. But I disagree with your statement. (this fee is charged to Comcast. There for Comcast must pay this fee) Not give to the athority. It is my belife that this fee is not mandatory to be paid buy the customer rather Comcast chooses to charge the customer because the FCC said it was OK if they did.
Give Comcast doesn't give anything...As I have noticed. They are business. Goal to make as much money as possible. Unlike some good business that do give back to the community.
Did you know that a franchise fee is charged on each movie you rent? I rented two movies at 3.99 each and paid a .44 charge for franchise fee. Why am I being charged on movies as well as equipment?
Comcast's net income for 3 quarter through September 2014 was 11 billion dollars. Their customer service is an embarassment and HUGE time waster to get anything done. Check out the financial results yourself:
What I'm finding interesting is the taxs. I had a partial monthly credit of $10.63 that amount was added to the sales tax amount and then removed so they get more money. They are charging sales tax on the broadcast fee, franchise fee and the FCC Fee. I'm not a lawyer but this seems a little illegal. First the Broadcast fee, franchise fee and the Fcc are part of them doing busines not subject to sales tax as they are already a tax. Second if I receive a partial month credit that should be taken off the top of the bill not the bottom after taxs. Seems to me that this is a Federal crime since this bill was sent through the federal mail.
we all need to put pressure on the states attorney general to investigate the business practices of Comcast that are deceptive/illegal/ fraududlent/ in nature. since they routinely have agents that lie to us, supervisors that try to steer us to soliutions that suit comcast and don't help us as customers much or at all etc. etc.
I AM GOING TO DEAL WITH THE S.A. office soon. TO TRY TO GET BACK MONEY I PAID TO COMCAST FOR CABLE SERVICE THAT I DID NOT ACTUALLY USE. Rgardless of the outcome of my personal situatio i will ask the ststes attorny what they are going toi do about comcast.
I will poinyt out al the repeat offenses that comcast customers are routinely plagued with.
iF YOU FOLKS WANT RESULTS, you will not get them by just putting a complaint on an online borad or thread regardless of who's site it is.
Join me in this new year to put a stop to the shady business pratices of coamcast. force them to revela all the hidden charges, and contract info up fron before a contract is evere agreed too. make it so that a written contract is clear, and transparent and does not contain tricky language or small print. ...
I can't do this by myself folks. we need each other frankly and you all should realize this. If you aren't going to actively fight and change things that are wrong then stop complaining...
It's not a "franchise" like a McD's franchise - it's a tax the municipality lays on Comcast to give the "franchise" (i.e., the ability to run their cables through the town) - complain to your local politicians - they're gouging you with what is essentially a disguised tax (like the politicians jacking up diesel gas taxes rather than unleaded gas taxes so primarily only truckers get hit with it and companies have to pass the higher tax on to consumers through higher shipping costs and/or higher prices - so they're taxing you but using an indirect method to hide it - same with this franchise tax
Better check the details of the state and various municipality sales taxes - would not surprise me that the crooks in Springfield (and elsewhere) are assessing taxes on the broadcast fee, etc. - their grubby hands never seem to tire stealing money from folks

That $11B you're quoting is operating income, not net income (which is after paying taxes, interest, etc.) - net income was $6.455B (~12% profit margin, which is not excessive) and also note that those numbers include NBCUniversal - it's not just Comcast Cable
However they should still provide much higher customer support
My Village is listed as the franchise holder on my bill. However, when I've checked with the Village regarding companies available for TV service, they have responded that they have no say-so as to who comes into the village with service. In the past the village has had issues with other companies coming into the village, as the vilage was strong-arming other services as to the amount of $$$ the village would receive per households signing up for services. Unfortunately, there are several companies that are rated much more highly by Consumer Reports available out there, but my village has done nothing to make them available. As I said before, the village says they have no say-so as to who may offers service to residents. Unfortunately, because I live in a highly wooded area, I am stuck with Comcast :-(

Interesting that I pay taxes that made the infrastructure they use possible and at the same time I have to pay the company that rents this infrastructure for them using it. This is entirely backwards. In my community they are the only game in town. This somehow seems wrong.
Hello Fstkmaro,
I'm sorry for your troubles. I will be more than happy to address your concerns. A Franchise agreement is a formal legal agreement with a government or regulatory agency that defines the terms and conditions under which Comcast may operate its cable system within the specified Federal Communications Commission (FCC) community area. Comcast pays a Franchise fee to exercise the rights granted to it under the Franchise agreement. I hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any additional questions or concerns in the future.
Thank You!
Why do I pay a city fee when I legally do not belong to a city? I am in an unincorporated county.
