"Ninety percent of this game is half mental." We have two big announcements today, right off the bat. First, it's thisyearcub's birthday, so happy birthday, Matt! And secondly, our own secdelahc found out yesterday that she was accepted to grad school at Michigan State. Woo-hoo!!!! Congratulations to both of you. If you were lucky enough to miss the game last night, allow me to give you a recap: It were bad. Craptacular, even. In large part due, and it pains me to say this, to our favorite bad-ass, Ted Lilly. But here, I'll let Paul Sullivan do the honors: Lilly has now served up five home runs over his last two starts, including the two monster shots by Mark DeRosa last week in Mesa, Ariz. Lilly was lifted for Aaron Heilman, after allowing seven runs on eight hits over four innings That's. . . that's. . . .that's not so much. Of course, though our team imploded, all the stories today are about the Yanks' new stadium. I guess it's up to me to figure out what went wrong. I h...
Roger Conrad: If McCain wins ... call up Comcast
2008-10-14 06:00:00
"For his entire career, John McCain has been a friend of big communications companies," says Roger Conrad (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2439). In The Utility Forecaster (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2439), the advisor explains, "One income-oriented play in this industry that would likely benefit from a McCain victory would be Comcast Corp 7% Preferred (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/quote.htm?sym=ccw) (NYSE: CCW (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/quote.htm?sym=ccw)).""John McCain has been an opponent of attempts to regulate how communications companies do business. As resident, companies will enjoy less regulation over how they manage their networks. "One good play on the industry now is Comcast Corp 7% Preferred, which at recent prices now yields nearly 9%. "Dividends are backed by the company's strong free cash flow -- cash flow less capital spending -- which more than tripled in the second quarter of this year. "Comcast has been ba...

Comcast tests take a number and wait network management
2008-06-03 18:21:00
When a market lacks adequate competitive forces, providers will invest in rationing before they invest in more product. Here’s more proof that there is not adequate competition in American broadband access: Comcast has cooked up yet another network management AKA rationing scheme. This concept is as old as the service cue at any government office. It’s called take a number and wait. Comcast’s subscribers are going to love it! Comcast CTO Tony Werner stated at the time that “the outcome will be a traffic management technique that is more appropriate for today’s emerging Internet trends.” According to an internal memo obtained by Broadband Reports, this more “appropriate” system will be tested in the Chambersburg, Pennsylvania and Warrenton, Virginia markets from June until July. The memo indicates that the company will be testing several management techniques (I’d assume from different vendors) in the two markets over the next mon...

I don't know the damage that hacker did but I am sure that will be surfacing soon. Also I am not too sure if there is anyone in connected in the hacking of the comcast site or even if they know who did it.

"And this one has not been objective."The Pennsylvania Republican was unforgiving of his criticism of NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, saying that Goodell has made "ridiculous" assertions that wouldn't fly "in kindergarten." The Senator said Goodell was caught in an "apparent conflict of interest" because the NFL doesn't want the public to lose confidence in the league's integrity.And Arlen also rambled on about how football players are such role models?yaddah yaddah yaddah.And even though Ted Kennedy is hardly an impartial observer in this, he was quo...

Comcast said to be mulling monthly download limits
2008-05-08 13:28:00
Sympatico Tech News is reporting that Comcast, the U.S's largest ISP is thinking about capping usage for their users.The consumer broadband website DSLReports.com, citing an unnamed source at Comcast, said Tuesday the company was considering a cap of 250 gigabytes per month cap.The source said users would get one free "slip-up" in a 12-month period, after which they would pay a $15 charge for every 10 GB over the cap they used.The proposed plan would mark a departure for U.S. internet service providers, which have traditionally offered "unlimited" download plans to subscribers.But the proposed cap is still significantly more than most Canadian internet customers can currently access.Most Canadian ISPs, including the two biggest - Rogers Communications Inc. and Bell Canada Inc. - already have data caps for users much lower than the one Comcast is reportedly mulling.The most popular plans for both Bell and Rogers cap monthly data at 60 GB. Bell's high-end offering has a cap of 100 G...

Five Mystics games to air on Comcast SportsNet
2008-05-07 21:25:00
Five games of the Washington Mystics' new women's pro basketball season will air on Comcast SportsNet. CSN will televise matchups against the Indiana Fever, Detroit Shock, Seattle Storm, New York Liberty and Connecticut Sun, all but the Liberty game to also air in HD. The local Mystics telecasts will all air in July 2008 as part of what Comcast SportsNet calls "Mystics Month." Whether the Mystics are only worthy of a month is debatable but considering that the team didn't get any locally produced television at all last season, it still stands as an improvement. Additionally, four games will air on national television via the ESPN family of channels.UPDATE: On the other hand, the Mystics have reupdated their radio schedule to remove references to WWRC/1260. It now seems that Mystics games will not air on local radio at all this season. ----Relevant link: Washington Mystics

Comcast Considering 250GB Monthly Data Caps, Disconnecting Repeat Pirates [
2008-05-07 07:18:00
Other than Time Warner's single-city foray into monthly data caps, consumption-based billing has mostly been little ISPs with little monopolies, and given the market, we thought it'd stay that way. Broadband Reports is, uh, reporting that now Comcast is mulling monthly caps (which Comcast's PR guy confirms, though not the details)—something like 250GB, and then $1.50 for every GB over that. According to their source, the idea has "a lot of momentum" and it'll start rolling out in the next two months. The other part is that they're going to start ramping up DMCA notices to pirate assholes, with a total disconnect if you've gotten four letters in a 12-month period. If this is entering the mix with Comcast's new "protocol agnostic" network management technique (in something closer to English, very temporarily slowing down your whole connection if you're hitting the pipe really hard at the same time as a lot of other people in your area), you're looking at an uncomfortabl...
