The basic problem was YES' insistence on being carried on basic cable, a request that 35 regional cable companies with five million customers agreed to It followed two weeks of meetings between sides that had refused to sit in the same room for months "She was just sick that she couldn't watch our games last year In late February, the combatants agreed to mediation by Gerald Levin, former chief executive officer of AOL-Time Warner Inc YES is owned by YankeeNets, the sports media company that owns the Yankees, the New Jersey Nets and the New Jersey Devils Cablevision lost 39,400 subscribers last year "The two parties have today reached a one-year interim agreement, effective March 31 â€â€? the start of the baseball season," said Bloomberg, who earlier this week helped orchestrate the settlement of a strike by Broadway musicians The YES Network went on the air last April "It's an agreement for the fans," YES CEO Leo Hindery said "Without their hard work, we would not be able to have this agreement," said Bloomberg, whose townhouse was the site of several meetings between the sides Cablevision wanted to make YES a premium network and charge subscribers $2 a month Deal Ends Dispute Over Yankees Telecasts Mar 12, 8:21 PM EST The YES Network and Cablevision reached an interim deal Wednesday, resolving a year-old dispute that threatened to wipe out another season of New York Yankees' telecasts for 3 million viewers Bloomberg for several months had urged both sides to resolve their differences before the start of another baseball season The network, in addition to airing the Yankees and the Nets, also broadcasts Seton Hall basketball She'll be thrilled, because now she can see me every night Cablevision owns Madison Square Garden, the MSG Network, and the New York Knicks and Rangers; for 13 seasons before last year, the Yankees appeared on MSG Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced the agreement at Gracie Mansion If no long-term deal is worked out over the next year, the two sides will submit to binding arbitration on April 1, 2004 "It's a great thing for Yankees' fans, and it's really great for my wife," said Yankees coach Don Zimmer, who lives in a Westchester area serviced by Cablevision The YES Network lost more than $60 million in subscriber fees, and tens of millions more in advertising YES has exclusive rights to most Yankees games " Neither side would say whether customers would pay more on their monthly cable bills to get the YES Network and the 120 Yankees games it will air in 2003 Cablevision had refused to carry the YES Network on its cable systems since its debut last April , and Richard Aurelio, the founder of New York One News "Byrne thinks it's funny that this tool exists, and he wants to play with it Byrne, 51, who was born in Scotland but has spent most of his adulthood in New York, said the compilation wasn't meant as a "serious statement about anything norvig Best known for vocals in "Psycho Killer" and "Burning Down the House," Byrne originally intended to spoof the ubiquitous software as a dumbed-down form of expression between communication-addled business executives microsoft I learned it in a few hours, and that's the idea " But by fixating on PowerPoint, Byrne â€â€? idolized by millions as a rock star for intellectuals â€â€? has stoked a fierce debate The 20-minute DVD, encased in the navy blue hardback cover, features the same abstractions in motion The genius of it is that it was designed for any idiot to use People kill meetings " The 96-page compilation, which debuted in September for $80, is best described as a coffee table book for nerds " Microsoft spokesman Simon Marks wouldn't comment on whether PowerPoint has debased society but said in an e-mail, "PowerPoint continues to evolve to make it easier for customers to present their information in the style that best suits the content and the audience He decided to experiment with PowerPoint as an artistic medium â€â€? and ponder whether it shapes how we talk and think " Byrne, a Tufte admirer who attended the Rhode Island School of Design, writes that PowerPoint's "subtle sets of biases" indoctrinate users to speak â€â€? and think â€â€? simply But using PowerPoint is like having a loaded AK-47 on the table: You can do very bad things with it " Edward R "I just got carried away and started making stuff," Byrne said edwardtufte Tufte, a Yale University professor and author of graphic design book "Envisioning Information," is perhaps the most vocal PowerPoint hater Foes say PowerPoint's ubiquity perverts everything from elementary school reports to NASA's scientific theses into sales pitches with bullet points and stock art com/powerpoint "Quite frankly, I have to side with Tufte on this one," Guterman said Jimmy Guterman, 41, a writer whose Boston-area office includes posters of Tufte and Byrne, said he feels like the child of divorce Ex-Talking Head Makes PowerPoint Art Dec 27, 2:31 PM EST David Byrne, an accomplished composer, photographer and lead singer of Talking Heads, has evolved â€â€? some would say devolved â€â€? into an unlikely artistic medium: PowerPoint "Software constraints are only confining if you use them for what they're intended to be used for," Byrne said in a phone interview But after spending several hours designing a mock slide show, Byrne became intrigued "It communicates within certain limited parameters really well and very easily com Norvig's site: http://www "PowerPoint may not be of any use for you in a presentation, but it may liberate you in another way, an artistic way " Norvig, who recently ordered a copy of Byrne's compilation for himself, said Byrne is wading in treacherous waters Tufte is going for the jugular "People are asking whether, ultimately, PowerPoint makes us all stupid, or does it help us streamline our thoughts?" said Norvig, who first saw Talking Heads in the late '70s In his book and DVD compilation, "Envisioning Emotional Epistemological Information," Byrne twists PowerPoint from a marketing tool into a multimedia canvas, pontificating that the software's charts, graphs, bullet points and arrows have changed communication styles , is generally credited with creating the first PowerPoint parody in 1999, when he published an online slideshow of Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address Who knows But the overall tone of this compilation is somewhat like a sales pitch â€â€? whimsical and upbeat The spoof, which by Norvig's estimate has been viewed by at least 500,000 people, includes bullet points such as "unfinished work (great tasks)," "new birth of freedom" and "government not perish " Peter Norvig, 46, engineering director at Google Inc In a Wired magazine editorial in September titled "PowerPoint Is Evil," Tufte compared PowerPoint presentations to a school play: "very loud, very slow, and very simple Byrne wrote most of the music " â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: Tufte's site: http://www Byrne is unapologetic about liking PowerPoint The book includes mostly lucid musings on how PowerPoint has ushered in "the end of reason," with pictures of bar charts gone hideously astray, fields of curved arrows that point at nothing, disturbing close-ups of wax hands and eyebrows, and a photo of Dolly the cloned sheep enclosed by punctuation brackets He believes PowerPoint's emphasis on format over content commercializes and trivializes subjects "My belief is that PowerPoint doesn't kill meetings Visual artists say Microsoft Corp " The gulf between Byrne's and Tufte's outlooks troubles fans One of the Internet's inventors, Vint Cerf, gets laughs from audiences by quipping, "Power corrupts and PowerPoint corrupts absolutely But they both in different ways understand that PowerPoint is a broken tool 's popular "slideware" â€â€? which makes it easy to incorporate animated graphics and other entertainment into presentations â€â€? lulls people into accepting pablum over ideas The initial printing run of 1,500 copies sold out by mid-December com Microsoft's PowerPoint site: http://office " Cerf, now an MCI executive and chairman of the Internet's key oversight body, doesn't shun PowerPoint completely, but said avoiding it "actually improves communication because people have to listen rather than being distracted by fancy PowerPoint charts |
