PinTAM 2008
October 29, 2008
The first annual PinTAM for CTAM of the Rocky Mountains was a great success.
Fourteen teams
competed to become the first champions. That title went to Cheryl Davis,
Sean Curry both of
Time Warner Cable, Bob Gold from Discovery Networks and Jeremy Harris.
The steady flow of
food and drink helped sustain the energy for the bowlers. There were even
a few turkeys
spotted on the lanes.
A special thanks to Discovery and the Sportsman Channel for their sponsorship
support!
Pictures are forthcoming!

CTAM National TeleSeminar: The Digital
Transition
February 20, 2008
The 2008 CTAM Teleseminar was a fascinating presentation and discussion highlighting the
2009 digital broadcast transition. The national
panel featured a wide range of experts from
cable and broadcast discussing
the current preparations, activities and planning for this event.
The national panel was followed-up by a local discussion led by Charlie
Kennamer, Comcast's,
VP, Engineering Policy and Industry Affairs
and a member of Comcast's "Office of the CTO"
and is integral
in the planning for the Digital Transition. Charlie helped our local
audience
discuss some of the technical preparations being made and
answered many questions to
help clarify the complicated issues surrounding
the digital transition.
