Yet she walks around all day in those hideous flip flops in this age of global warming<g> She rarely stays at her house - too expensive for her to heat and cool - she is often at the mall letting them pay to condition her environment - I have told her time and again what an idiot she is to tie up so much capital in that house that she never stays at - but IMAGE is everything eh? I used the SI search engine and found this message recently posted about princesses going to shopping malls to beat the heat wave: Message 22680979

FCC Orders Time Warner To Put NFL Network Back On (who has the power Vosilla - the free market or gubbment?) By Siobhan Hughes Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--The Federal Communications Commission on Thursday ordered Time Warner Inc. (TWX)'s cable division to put the NFL Network back on systems it recently acquired from cable providers Comcast Corp. (CMCSA) and Adelphia Communications Corp. "They'll be required to put that back on," FCC Chairman Kevin Martin told reporters after a meeting. NFL Network filed a complaint with the FCC after customers who formerly had NFL Network suddenly lost the channel on Tuesday, when Time Warner became their new cable provider. The network argued that Time Warner violated rules requiring that cable companies give 30 days notice to customers before changing their lineups. At the center of the debate is the network's desire to be included on the basic expanded tier - which gets the largest swath of customers. Time Warner Cable wants to put the network on its sports tier instead, which it offers as NBA-TV, Outdoor Channel and various Fox Sports channels for $5 a month. Federal regulators said it appeared that Time Warner discontinued the NFL Network with essentially no warning to customers, depriving them of a chance to find alternative providers ahead of the Aug. 11 start of the NFL's pre-season schedule. "Each day that Time Warner customers go without the NFL Network significantly and irreparably harms many of them, particularly those in Buffalo, Cleveland, and Dallas, each of which is home to an NFL team," the commission said in orders issued on Thursday. (HAHA if they can't get thier fix they will be harmed! - have to keep the sheeple placated) Time Warner will have until Aug. 15 to respond to the FCC's order. The NFL Network will then have until Aug. 20 to reply to Time Warner's response. Until a final resolution, Time Warner must provide NFL Network on the same terms under which the network was carried before Aug. 1. -By Siobhan Hughes, Dow Jones Newswires; 202-862-6654 -Ellen Sheng contributed to this report.
