I just wanted to say how happy I am to once again be a DirecTV customer. I started out with a DirecTV receiver with built in TiVo which I enjoyed for some time. Thinking the grass was greener on the other side, I switched over to Dish Network because I was enticed thinking that I could get a three room install with two DVR receivers that would probably be as good as TiVo. Boy was I ever wrong!
To get to the point, by switching to Dish Network and their psuedo TiVo, which they refer to as Dish Player, I endured a 5 month nightmare as a customer of Dish Network. I am now back to DirecTV and where I originally had one TiVo with that service, we now have three of which two are IRDs and one is a stand alone unit.
If you are thinking about switching to Dish Network for either their service or because of their Dish Player, I strongly suggest that you read about what happened to me at: http://www.dufoenet.com/dishnetwork.html

Empathy is given where it is warranted. In this case, it isn't.
Speculation and presence of the alleged incident is irrelevant. One has only look at this customer's words in this case to see their claim is exaggerated at best, fraudulent at the worst.
I only added the the Urban Princess label after further reading the OPs website. The alleged incident has nothing to do with it.
Hey I just call em like I see em

Continuing the Kilauea thread in the Pub here. Perhaps the Iceland one too next time there's remarkable activity.
Currently there is precursory lava flowing into the crater, leading to the next episode that'll probably start within the next day.
You can see the pace of inflation / deflation here. It serves as the primary predictor for when the expect the eruptions, which coincide w/ inflation turning into significant deflation and last for several hours on average with significant fountaining.

Wife and I like the AfarTV feeds, for the discussion along w/ them, though they're otherwise just mirrors of the official USGS feeds.

Not sure saving $24/year is worth it unless you're a hardcore Philo user. I'll stick with monthly.

'Rockford Files' Reboot Gets NBC Pilot Order
I grow tired of all the reboots. Most I don't bother with but will depend on the actor chosen.

I have Dish with Hopper3. I choose to get local channels OTA and had a "guide list" established at my previous home. Having moved a few miles away, I wanted to update the list by appending a couple new stations via a rescan. As many would know, some stations come in with the UHF/VHF antenna aimed in one direction, while others come in better with a different direction.
Unfortunately, when a scan is done (bringing in 25-30 stations for that particular antenna aim), the dialog screen does not present the established guide list; it presents an empty field to the right that the scanned stations may be selected one by one and added to the empty guide. But because of antenna aim, some stations originally saved are missing, and would have to be retrieved with a different antenna aim. But as I explain, if a 2nd scan is done with a different antenna aim, the stations saved from the first scan are lost.
It troubles me that Dish didn't develop software that would allow a user to simply append only 1 or 2 channels to the established list.
Any thought on this? Has anyone experienced this or heard of this from others?
