It’s the special company that delivers in a bad economic environment. At a time when the U.S. has been weighed down by its slowest recovery since the Great Depression, when Europe’s currency threatens its union and, I might add when our critics flood the field with stories that refuse to move beyond the misdeeds at two of our papers in Britain, I am delighted to report something about News Corporation you Rupert Murdoch, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer might not know from the headlines: News Corporation In 2012, for the second year in a row, we have brought our stockholders double-digit growth in total segment operating income.

Well, things change fast. The conversion has been postponed until June 12, 2009 to allow more time for TV viewers to get ready to receive the new digital TV signals. If you receive your TV signals from satellite or over cable you will not be affected but if your signal originates from a set top antenna or an attic or outside antenna your TV will go dark when the dreaded day arrives unless you take action. Unless you have one of the newer televisions designated as Digital TV or HDTV, which has an integrated digital TV tuner, you will need to purchase a digital TV converter to convert the digital TV signals back to analog TV signals in order for your older analog TV to receive any television signals. Most all of the new DTV channels are in the UHF Low band so you might also want to consider getting a new UHF antenna to replace your old VHF or VHF/UHF antenna.

Don't Expect to Own it Anytime Soon. Julie Macedo* I. INTRODUCTION The digital nation is coming. Everywhere one turns there are advertisements of amazing new products and the startling clarity of a digital picture. Americans love their "TV" and will not be able to resist the transition to digital TV once they have seen it. Yet, there are whispers of discontent. There is grumbling about the lack of programming and the high cost of new television sets. The whispers seem to be coming from several different sources, the same sources that claim the digital revolution will be a miraculous benefit. A confused consumer may be the downfall of the United States conversion to digital. This Comment will attempt to educate the participants involved in the digital revolution, including consumers. A clear understanding of the goals and intentions of the major digital constituencies is essential in order to realize why the digital transition may continue well into the next century. A better understanding by digital equipment manufacturers and suppliers of digital programming can hopefully lead to an educated and informed consumer. In this Comment, an explanation of the digital allotment, granted by the government to broadcasters will be followed by a brief discussion of the technology of digital TV.

This phase of a projected complete investigation, intended to make drainage design more economical, is concentrated on the drainage stack and the building drain. The report describes tests to determine terminal velocities and terminal lengths in stacks as well as tests on stacks and drains. It analyzes stack conditions in a multistory building and suggests applications of the study's results.

Self-Siphonage of Fixture Traps An explanation of the extent to which trap-seal losses are influenced by such considerations as the diameter of the trap and the depth of trap seal, the diameter and slope of the fixture drain, the type of vent fitting used, and the rate of discharge of the fixture. The report shows the importance of standard- izing fixture traps and the hydraulic characteristics of plumbing fixtures, such as lavatories, sinks, and trays; and it makes recommendations for use by code-writing authorities.
