PRIVATE EYES Tuesday, May 30 at 8.30Pm on Universal Channel Friday, May 26, 2017 Australian Premiere JASON PRIESTLEY STARS IN PRIVATE EYES Tuesday, May 30 at 8.30pm on Universal Channel There’s a new P.I. duo heating up the small screen! Jason Priestley stars alongside Cindy Sampson, in the original crime-solving series Private Eyes premiering Tuesday, May 30 at 8.30pm on Universal Channel. Jason Priestley stars as ex-pro hockey player Matt Shade who irrevocably changes his life when he decides to team up with fierce P.I. Angie Everett (Cindy Sampson - Supernatural) to form an unlikely investigative powerhouse. Shade sees working with Angie as an opportunity to redeem himself from his checkered past. On the ice, he learned how to hustle, read people and anticipate their moves. Working with Angie, Shade discovers a fantastic rush of adrenaline, and realises that he’s found a new home where his skills still matter. Meanwhile, Angie took over her father’s agency after his death and strives to keep his legacy alive. Each case is an opportunity for her to test her smarts, strength, and strategic thinking. Angie may find Shade naïve in the way that he sees the world, but his passion and heart bring something special to her one-woman business. The premiere episode begins in the fast-paced and cutthroat world of professional sports, where hockey scout Matt Shade’s top pick, Cory Sinclair, goes down on the ice at the Intercontinental Professional Hockey League try-outs. Surrounded by suspicious circumstances, Shade begrudgingly teams up with private investigator Angie Everett to find out who sabotaged his young player. Through their new partnership, Shade is forced to examine who he has become and who he wants to be. Ongoing episodes find Shade and Angie investigating high-stakes crimes in the worlds of horse racing, fine dining, Toronto’s vibrant hip-hop scene, scandalous literature, magic clubs, and more.

  • List of Directv Channels (United States)
    List of DirecTV channels (United States) Below is a numerical representation of the current DirecTV national channel lineup in the United States. Some channels have both east and west feeds, airing the same programming with a three-hour delay on the latter feed, creating a backup for those who missed their shows. The three-hour delay also represents the time zone difference between Eastern (UTC -5/-4) and Pacific (UTC -8/-7). All channels are the East Coast feed if not specified. High definition Most high-definition (HDTV) and foreign-language channels may require a certain satellite dish or set-top box. Additionally, the same channel number is listed for both the standard-definition (SD) channel and the high-definition (HD) channel, such as 202 for both CNN and CNN HD. DirecTV HD receivers can tune to each channel separately. This is required since programming may be different on the SD and HD versions of the channels; while at times the programming may be simulcast with the same programming on both SD and HD channels. Part time regional sports networks and out of market sports packages will be listed as ###-1. Older MPEG-2 HD receivers will no longer receive the HD programming. Special channels In addition to the channels listed below, DirecTV occasionally uses temporary channels for various purposes, such as emergency updates (e.g. Hurricane Gustav and Hurricane Ike information in September 2008, and Hurricane Irene in August 2011), and news of legislation that could affect subscribers. The News Mix channels (102 and 352) have special versions during special events such as the 2008 United States Presidential Election night coverage and during the Inauguration of Barack Obama.

  • August 6, 2014 Hon. Kathleen H. Burgess Secretary, Public Service Commission Three Empire State Plaza Albany, NY 12223-1350 Dear
    3003 Elmwood Avenue Rochester, New York 14618-2021 (585) 244-8496 e-mail: [email protected] August 6, 2014 Hon. Kathleen H. Burgess Secretary, Public Service Commission Three Empire State Plaza Albany, NY 12223-1350 Dear Ms. Burgess, The country is watching New York to learn if our state regulators believe a merger between two unpopular cable operators is in the best interest of New York residents. For the first time in a long time, the Public Service Commission has been empowered to provide much needed oversight over two companies that have enjoyed both deregulation and a near-monopoly across the region, particularly for High Speed Internet service at speeds above 10Mbps. New Yorkers, like the rest of the country, consistently rank both Comcast and Time Warner Cable as some of the worst companies around.1 The PSC has the power to facilitate franchise transfers that would effectively combine the two into one giant monolithic cable company dominating the northeastern U.S., or it can reject the proposed assignment of franchises to Comcast, letting both companies know “in the public interest” means something in New York State. 1http://arstechnica.com/business/2014/05/comcast-time-warner-cable-still-have-the-angriest-customers-survey- finds/ Section 222 of the New York Public Service law2 provides the PSC with the authority to reject the application for a transfer of a franchise, any transfer of control of a franchise or certificate of confirmation, or of facilities constituting a significant part of any cable television system unless, and I paraphrase, the transfer is in the public interest.
