Hate Paying for Cable? Here’s Why.	entertainment

Love grousing about cable TV? Then I’ve got a list for you. It comes from industry analyst SNL Kagan, and I came across it via a research note Barclays Capital’s Anthony DiClemente sent out last week.     DiClemente was arguing that the bundled approach to cable TV–whereby subscribers get dozens or even hundreds of channels for one big fee, no matter how many networks they actually watch–wasn’t going anywhere for quite some time. If ever.     But if you’re the kind of person who thinks we’re headed for an a la carte model in which programmers compete directly for consumer dollars, you can use this as fodder for your argument. Because you can see just how much you’re paying for stuff you don’t want.     Obviously these are wholesale prices, not retail. But this gives you a very good idea of where the money goes–to a lot of channels you likely never, ever, look at. Comments: 0   Hits: 10   Points: 212335   Vote Now!   [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ]

Dozen centuries-old shipwrecks found in Baltic Sea	history

A dozen centuries-old shipwrecks — some of them unusually well-preserved — have been found in the Baltic Sea by a gas company building an underwater pipeline between Russia and Germany.     The oldest wreck probably dates back to medieval times and could be up to 800 years old, while the others are likely from the 17th to 19th centuries, Peter Norman of Sweden's National Heritage Board said Tuesday.

Starting in Illinois, the beer belly expands up into Wisconsin and first spreads westward through Iowa/Minnesota and then engulfs Nebraska, and the Dakotas before petering out (like a pair of love handles) in Wyoming and Montana.

Toyota Simulator	strangely funny
Link #150062 submitted by johnny2000 on Mar 9, 2010 06:11am.   (+160XP) http://toyotasimulator.com
I have taken my years of analysis and web expertise to bring you a simulation of the sudden acceleration issues plaguing Toyota vehicles right now. This has been optimized for maximum reality to illustrate a true life experience of the matter at hand.     Why am I allowing companies to litter my BMW 7series with 200 stickers? As a digital strategist, I see too many people petrified to take chances when it comes to social media. Clueless on how to measure ROI; unwilling to take any risks. So, to prove a point, I'm putting my dream car on the chopping block, sacrificing it for the greater good Internet meme glory.

International Reciprocal Trade Association	the biz

Ancient Barter was man’s first form of commerce and consisted of the one to one direct exchange of goods and services. Advances in technology have greatly expanded and enhanced the scope of Barter far beyond this limited one to one model.   Last year IRTA Member Companies using the “Modern Trade and Barter” process, made it possible for over 400,000 companies World Wide to utilize their Excess Business Capacities and underperforming assets, to earn an estimated $10 Billion dollars in previously lost and wasted revenues.   In terms of income, Excess Business Capacity represents the difference between actual cash revenues received, and the cash revenues and profits that would be realized, if a business operated at 100% of its capacity. Most businesses are operating at less than 100% of their potential business capacity.     The International Reciprocal Trade Association, IRTA, is a non-profit organization committed to promoting just and equitable standards of practice and operation within the Modern Trade and Barter and other Alternative Capital Systems Industry, by raising the awareness and value of these processes to the entire Global Community.
