notes about the August 17th podcast

BIG NEWS DAY:
TV NEWS BALANCES STORIES, NEW TECHNOLOGIES, LOCAL VS. NATIONAL COVERAGE


...KOLD showed a brief Skype video of the protest scene at 5...and then spent most of the rest of the block using Skype from the protest scene.


KOLD loves using the Skype computer phone/video technique. The station's logic is that by using a computer connection, the reporter can get to a scene and start reporting more quickly. It's also more flexible in terms of providing video from scenes that would be otherwise difficult to reach.


...The quality of the Skype footage paled in comparison to the more traditional live video displayed on the other two stations.

notes about the August 10th podcast

During the recording of the podcast, I did not fully understand what Robert was trying to describe to me...after recording the podcast, I found what he was talking about: it's "angiokeratoma". From what I've read about it, excision and grafting may be necessary to remove the lesion(s)...recovery time can range from three to twelve weeks.

Robert also has fibrous papule's of the nose and Poikiloderma of Civatte.
Thank God he does not need a ball grafting....Yet.

Don't play around with skin issues.

===================================

I like safety razors...

mainly because I don't shave very often, and need to use an "industrial strength" razor. (I know I really should learn to use a straight razor...)

notes about the August 3rd podcast

It's been estimated that bus riders are probably in the lower half of the income spectrum in Tucson...close to half the families are renters...

==============================

...a group of people...think if Sun Tran falls under the RTA umbrella, the poorest riders would not be protected from fare increases.


The city of Tucson is having budget troubles and the RTA has enough transit money set aside it says for the next five years at least.

=========================

RTA Executive Director Gary Hayes has pushed for the transfer, despite the fact that an Arizona Daily Star calculation shows it could cause a $72 million shortfall in the RTA's budget over 15 years. Hayes said that hole will be filled with operating efficiencies and federal grants.


Several nonprofit organizations and advocates for the poor...against the transfer because they fear it will lead to higher bus rates. Some bus riders said the strike would be a big inconvenience to them and their families.
