Comment on Piping public media’s economy stories by katiekemple

Todd, thanks for featuring the economy collaboration and providing feedback. We're always looking for ways to improve and to make our combined projects more accessible to stations. I think it's great you created a Yahoo! Pipe. We've got several other feeds that you (and other stations) may wish to add. I'll send those your way in an email and would be happy to share with anyone else who is interested (you can reach me at katie.kemple@gmail.com). Hope to see you at PRPD. Katie Kemple, Communications Manager, Public Media's Economy Story

A tends to be bleak, with most individuals dying from the disease within a year after diagnosis. However, there are some who will live a decade or more with this deadly form of cancer. Why the discrepancy in prognosis? As with most cancers, the earlier it is detected, the better the outcome.

There may be hope for those suffering from mesothelioma though. A diagnosis does not mean death. Many new drugs are being used to help treat the disease and may improve the mesothelioma prognosis greatly. Mesothelioma prognosis, has the most up to date, important information surrounding Mesothelioma, Mesothelioma doctors and symptoms, Mesothelioma treatment, and Mesothelioma tests and research and it is your resource for Mesothelioma attorneys and lawyers, asbestos cancer, asbestos exposure, asbestos removal, asbestos lawsuits, and asbestos attorneys.

Comment on Video: Disconnecting the Coax by Lono33

Lono33 — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 22:02:20 +0000

We too left the cable company. I was bummed to lose the DVR more than anything, but every single month Comcast raised our rates. Tired of their bs, we disconnected cable about three months ago and as a result our cable bill dropped $100.

We too still have the broadband internet through them. It's impressive. it powers our Wii, our laptop, and our Roku box. Easily worth the $50 a month.

The Roku box is awesome. You had mentioned netflix. The Roku box delivers Netflix queue straight to your DVR through a wifi connection in your house. Though the whole catalogue isn't on there, there is an impressive selection. After a one time investment of $100, the service is free... and just runs off your netflix service. Also, they are now hooked up with Amazon. So, I can watch the newest DVD releases, just like with on demand.

We get a great HD pic on all the local network affiliates. I only miss the food network, and espn.

I am excited to see what unfolds when the digital conversion goes down. I think my selections will either go up or down drastically. It was tough the first month or so, especially not having the DVR. Now, it is more satisfying just not paying them. If I did go back to subscription tv, I wouldn't be with Comcast. As a matter of principle, I would go to sattellite TV.

Dude, we are 7.5 years in with no cable or any kind of reception. And we have two kids. It was awesome when we were chosen as a Neilsen family. I tried to tell them we didn't watch anything and I sent them a booklet filled with a few viewings of Star Wars: New Hope and Lord of the Rings. They must have loved that one.

Cut the cord. Keep up the great work.

Dude, we are going on 7.5 years without cable. What's the big deal? I'm not paying to have all the crap come into the house with 1% of it actually good programming. And we don't have any reception at all…

You won't miss it. You will realize how much free time you have when you aren't glued to the tube.

Comment on Working the Kindle 2 by mwp

mwp — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 14:48:09 +0000

My wife gave me a Kindle for Christmas, I got it in February, and I love it. Here's my favorite thing: like many book lovers, I'm easily seduced or almost seduced by a book in a bookstore. On the other hand, I often find I have an inspiration when I'm not in a bookstore ("I'd love to reread 'The Brothers Karamazov"!), then have second thoughts when I have the book in my hand. Over the years, I've bought lots of books I never got around to reading, so I pretty frequently talk myself out of buying things (I tell myself this is a book I want to have read, not a book I want to read).

The Karamazov example is real -- I've always thought of it as my favorite book from college, and for the last decade or so I've meant to reread it. But when I stand there in the store with the book and $15 in my hand, I think "O, come on, you'll never actually get around to reading this" and I put it down. WIth the Kindle, I ordered the sample when I had the inspiration (in the case of BK the sample must have been 50 or 60 pages) and it was clear when I got to the end of the sample and actually bought the book that I had the momentum to read it. I've read or reread several books on this basis.

I find the reading experience to be just fine. One complaint is that I'm nervous about how much I have to use the 5-way navigator. There's no alternative to it -- if it breaks, the unit is junk -- and I'm not sure how pleasant the repair process would be. I'm always a little nervous when I use the device (unlike my Palm Pilot, say, which I toss around pretty carelessly).

Actually, navigation in general feels pretty 1st generation on the Kindle. Using tables of contents feel like you're clumsily clicking through barely converted text. Compared to navigating on an iPod Classic, for example, it's the difference between an old text-based computer game like "Adventure" and something more modern.

That aside, though, I'm a very happy KIndle user, and I could imagine using something like this for a long time. It doesn't feel like a gimmick to me, but like something that could comfortably fit into my life.

Peace,

Mark.

Great review, I'm think I might have to pick one up after reading your entry. I was wondering if any affluent library systems were picking them up and sure enough, Sparta Public Library (SPL) NJ purchased a few, and the waiting list is two months; it sure makes a swift and inexpensive alternative to interlibrary loan.

Oddly enough the Amazon/Kindla Terms of Service prevents a user who wishes to “sell, rent, lease, distribute, broadcast, sublicense or otherwise assign any rights to the Digital Content or any portion of it to any third party.” So far Amazon is mum on the topic and they don't seem to be raising a fuss with libraries, it'll be interesting to see how Amazon irons out the concept of popular lending. Oh Andrew Carnegie, if you could see us now!

In August of 2005, Ms. Browne was appointed Executive Director at Iowa Public Radio (IPR). At the time, IPR was a new structure created to consolidate the public radio stations at Iowa State University, the University of Northern Iowa and the University of Iowa into a statewide network.

Great story, many amazing things i didn't know. Thanks.

Yeah, there's a lot of solution to that problem and lots of people are doing those too. Try walking, bicycle and scooter. Additional savings and exercise too. Get rid of that car or just remove some of your activities. Just use the car for long drives and if it's really necessary if you really need to keep it.

Hi Todd, thanks for highlighting Big Art Mob – I commissioned it for Channel 4 in London (the other public service broadcaster apart from the BBC in the UK, the really innovative one which punches above its weight ) and we're really proud of it as an example of taking on a worthwhile public challenge (in this case, creating the 1st comprehensive map of UK public art) with the help of people power. You can find out about other similar projects I'm working on at http://www.arkangel.tv. You may find the latest one of particular interest – http://www.landshare.net – which links people who want to grow their own food with people who have bits of land to share.
