Thanks to a lot of grass-roots organizing, protest and the support of the City Council, MNN - Manhattan's four public cable access channels secured a twelve year extension through the city's new franchise agreement with Verizon. Details at mnn's website: http://www.mnn.org/

Interesting factoid from MNN: "MNN present[s] every year on average about 20,043 hours of locally-produced programs in more than 30 different languages. This makes MNN not only the country's most diverse and prolific broadcaster, but the world's.

Similar case: In New Zealand much of the electricity in New Zealand is generated hydrodynamically. In years when summer rainfall is low, there can be a shortage of electricity supply during the peak-demand winter months (balancing the need for wintertime electricity with the need for water for irrigation during the summer is an additional complication). So prices go up those winters.

"Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely" -- actually I think the original quotation was:

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men." Lord Acton (1887)
