Today is the final Friday of the month, the day of the Hobart Marine Corps League "Howlin' Mad Detachment Number 93" Doughboy ceremony – where the names of fallen soldiers for the month are read out loud – and for the first time in three-and-a-half-years, there are no names to read – they will still have an opening prayer- followed by a small announcement- and a volley of 3 rounds with the playing of taps and closing prayer. The public as always is invited to the service which starts at 5pm at the Hobart Doughboy statue, at 7th and Main. Doughboy was a term used to describe U-S infantrymen of the American Expeditionary Force during World War One.

Later, Suckers!: How To Skip All The Other Floors When Riding In An Elevator
Has anybody ever tried this? I'd give it a go in my apartment's elevator but it smells like an old person died in there (I suspect it was the woman that lives above me).

I see you're mixing in Logic. Here's a few of my thoughts on mixing in Logic:
Summing Engine – Logic doesn't sum tracks together very well, or (to be more specific) very clearly. Usually isn't a big deal for 5 – 10 tracks, or pieces that aren't very dense. But, if you have a session with a lot of tracks that fill up the frequency range and then some, you are going to working extra hard trying to achieve some sort of clarity. Things start sounding more and more like Soundcloud (which sounds awful due to their conversion process). In the process of trying to achieve clarity, you'll use a bunch of plugins that will, little by little, degrade the sound so it's almost like a double-edged sword. Using better mixing plugins well help, as long as you use them appropriately.
Stereo Imaging – Logic handels stereo imaging poorly, or again, things aren't as clear. But, unlike the summing engine thing, there are a couple things to try and improve this. First, I turn the pan law to '0' (project settings/Audio/Pan Law). At this setting, it seems to me like it's easier to get tracks more into the left and right channels so everything isn't overlapping as much in the center channel (which makes since when you set a pan law to '0'). Second, use Logic's directional mixer plugin or even better, download the Stereo Tool from Flux plugins to use for panning. It's free and, in my opinion, an absolute must to have for anyone mixing. By the way, mono tracks pan well in Logic. It's only stereo tracks that I feel have this issue.
The actual 'Sound' of Logic- This one is a big one. All DAWs sound different. It's not very noticeable with just a handful of tracks but becomes more apparent as you add more and more tracks. It's a subtle thing but it might be the thing you are fighting with in your mix. Logic has a very 'rounded' sort of sound. It's hard to get bright mixes out of Logic without sounding harsh in the highs and high mids. The bass and sub bass isn't as clear compared to other DAWs. Low mids seem to have a lot presence in the balance of frequencies. Upper highs seem ok. A good EQ and proper EQ'ing will help. DMG Equality is a nice EQ for around $160.
I mixed in Logic for a long time struggling to find clarity and getting mixes brighter without becoming harsh. I always wondered how this mixer I knew got really clear mixes that were bright but not harsh. The main difference between us was the DAW . He was working in Pro Tools. I switched over to mixing in Pro Tools and found I didn't have to work as hard to get the mix I was looking for. That's also when I noticed a difference in sound between the two programs.
Another mixing DAW to try is Mixbus. DAW based entirely on the sound of a Harrison console. Not great for editing and no midi capability last time I checked but, it sounds great.
Logic doesn't sound bad. It's a choice and it's all in how you work with it. The points I mentioned are subtle things that I feel added up to a point in my mixes that I was fighting the way the DAW sounds. I struggled with getting clarity and tolerable brightness out of it so I mix in Pro Tools now.
Not sure if this whole thing helps and maybe some might think I'm a bit looney for thinking DAWs sound different. But, that's been my experience.

Lmz saidNo, you are not looney! About 7-8 years ago, I used mostly Cubase for all my mixes. I then switched to Pro-Tools and noticed quite the difference. In fact, I mixed a track with the exact same parameters in both DAWs and the results were chocking. The mix in Cubase turned out way muddier. Ever since, I never looked back. I have always used Pro-Tools.
Not sure if this whole thing helps and maybe some might think I'm a bit looney for thinking DAWs sound different. But, that's been my experience.
Cubase might have improved throughout the years but it doesn't matter, I am just more comfortable mixing in Pro-Tools anymore.
Thanks for your thoughts on this Lmz – I've actually been talking a lot about this with a film composer friend of mine a lot who says Logic sounds like dog dirt. I've had my suspicions as before Logic I was on Digital Performer which sounded SO much better to my ears, but I had to leave it because of its awful interface.
I hear quite a few film composers compose in Logic and then mix in Pro Tools, something I've been considering for a while but I've been intimidated a bit by PT each time I look around. I went to a mixing masterclass where Jake Jackson was doing a live mixing session of the 007 Bond game (soundtrack by Richard Jacques), and I was blown away by how complex it was trying to route stuff around. However, I'm sure it's not as complicated as I'm thinking and just need to get my hands dirty. Also seems to be essential for passing over stems to mix engineers these days.
I've downloaded that plugin Stereo Tool by Flux plugins, so will have a play around with that. I have a plugin by Voxengo called GlissEQ which I quite like and usually use for EQing tracks, but I'll also take a look at DMG Equality like you suggest.
Lastly, I can't ignore an important factor which is that I need to acoustically treat my room properly so I can use the two sets of monitors to their full potential (I've got a pair of JBL LSR25ps (ooooold now) and Equator D5's which are new and I'm getting used to.
Great thread Taco! I'd love to have a go of that mix when I get the time, might be a while though, I have downloaded the files and it will probably be Xmas by the time I get around to it but hey!
I like the way people have approached the track slightly different, for instance I like what BHMedia did with the piano and what Gareth did with the percussion, I think the piano sounds better sat underneath rather than upfront, it adds a lot more that way, just my opinion of course.
Some acoustic treatment is essential, I think it has probably been one of the best investments I've ever made. I hate to bang on about the mopads but they did make a massive difference for my set up and for the sake of £40.00 of your hard earned income I think it's a no brainer, there is no point in having decent monitors if you don't isolate them properly. This all depends on what kind of set up you have of course but well placed treatment will never go a miss.
Anyway it's a good track i think you should upload it when your happy with it.
Great thread
Thanks simaudio – funnily enough, I went out and bought some mopad equivalents a couple of days ago! Think I got stung though as they feel a bit flimsy while the mopads look like they're good quality by the images I've seen.
If I were to release this track, I think I'd need to do a longer version and include this one in there for free considering it's already available for people to download!
By the way, what do you think of these for acoustic treatment of the walls in my studio?
http://www.dolphinmusic.co.uk/product/35735-auralex-d36-dst-roominator-charcoal-.htmlSeems pretty cheap, so I have my doubts…
I took simaudio's mopad suggestion a while back and I haven't regretted it. I had my monitors sitting on just some regular auralex blocks but with the mopads you have more control over the angle and it seemed to me that the foam was of a better quality. Certainly you should put at least something under the monitors for isolation.
As for the roominator you linked to, I think those will help a great deal especially if you don't currently have any treatment. I don't know if I have exactly the same product, but I have 1×1 blocks of Auralex foam in my studio and I can attest that they get the job done (now I just need a bigger space :P).
Also wanted to chime in and thank everybody who posted mixing tips on this thread – some extremely valuable information here, and I'm looking forward to hearing the various mixes when I get time to sit down and concentrate on them.
Looks alright to me, not sure if you will need all that, just make sure you go for the proper Auralex stuff and not the cheaper versions available as I've heard stories of the foam falling apart and changing colour after a short time.
I used double sided Velcro so that I could move the panels if I wanted, if you use glue then you are kind of stuck to where they go if you know what I mean, pardon the pun! Also you won't wreck the wall.
You might be better off going for a few of these and see how you get on, but it does depend on your room size of course. I have these ones…600×600
http://www.dv247.com/studio-equipment/universal-acoustics-mercury-wedge-in-charcoal--55354Maybe add some smaller ones or a bass trap if you still have problems, but you will find just by adding some of these and some mopads that the bass will get a lot tighter instantly. Don't forget though you will still need a few reflective surfaces to help the highs…. I use a couple of pictures and some blank cds dotted around.
This article is good especially if you like DIY ha-ha, no seriously though, again depending on your room size? making up some panels could be quite helpful and cost effective….great for ceilings.
http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/oct10/articles/studio-sos-1010.htm@Jhunger…. a bigger room would be a godsend for sure! But on second thoughts I would only fill it up with more rubbish… Lol
Hope this helps Tacomusic

I think this is one of the best threads to come along in a while. Now I have to find some time to see how the different mixes turned out. Interesting stuff!
If I have time, I'll make a mix, but to my taste.

Guest Writer: Rangers Preview
As always, I'm happy to post articles written by SethSpeaks readers here. That's what we've got here today. I will follow his Rangers update with some game notes from Thursday and a few other thoughts.
But the main part of today's posting is a look at the surprising Texas Rangers by Vic Quick, a great friend of mine from back in college. You may recognize Vic's name as one of the participants in the SethSpeaks NFL "Expert" Picks each year. He is currently a sports reporter at KOTA-TV in Rapid City, South Dakota. He grew up in Dallas, Texas, and is the self-proclaimed biggest Texas Rangers fan in South Dakota. I don't know if he gave himself a plaque, or what. After years of disappointment, his Rangers are certainly a team worth watching, full of exciting players. Vic gives us a little look at what we can expect from the team. Now, I also have to say that you have to be careful about what you read. Vic sent me a text message before the Home Run Derby finals that read "Hamilton will obliterate Morneau." Oh was it fun to respond to that message about 15 minutes later! Anyway, thank you to Vic for this look at the Rangers. Please feel free to comment.
The Texas Rangers pay a visit to the Metrodome this weekend. Twins' fans will have the opportunity to watch what might just be the most exciting team in baseball. And it's not just about Josh Hamilton. In fact, Ian Kinsler's 1st half of the season has been just as impressive, if not more so. No one expected this kind of year from the Rangers' 2nd baseman. Kinsler leads the American League in hitting at .337, he's driven in 58 runs, and leads the American League in Runs scored with 84. Kinsler has stolen 23 bases, and his only caught stealing was on a pickoff. The number 2 man in the Rangers lineup is Michael Young. After a bit of a slow start, he's turned things on, and may pick up yet another 200 hit season. A red hot week before the All Star break has pushed Young's average up to .302. We all know about the 3rd man in the Rangers' lineup. Josh Hamilton has been sensational. He has 95 RBI in 96 games. His 21 home runs have seemed to come in big spots, including a walk off winner against the Angels last week.
I wasn't quite sure want to think when the Rangers signed Milton Bradley this off season. But the move has paid big dividends. Bradley is hitting .316 with 19 HR's and 57 RBI out of the Rangers clean up spot. But even more impressive is the fact that he seems to fit in very well in the Rangers' clubhouse. If you watched the Home Run Derby, you saw him joking around with Hamilton, and the other Ranger All Stars. By all reports, Bradley appears to have a great deal of respect for Texas' manager Ron Washington, and the two get along great. In fact Bradley has even served as a leader for this young Rangers' team. So there is a rundown on the Rangers 1 thru 4 hitters, who all were selected for the All Star game. But the hits don't stop there. David Murphy should be the American League's rookie of the year. You probably don't realize that David Murphy has 60 RBI. Which is more than such players as Vladimir Guerrero. He's also knocked out 13 round trippers, and has done a fantastic job in the number 5 spot. After being called up just a few weeks ago, first baseman Chris Davis has been very exciting. He's hit 6 Home Runs in just 17 games. At the bottom of the Rangers order you'll find either Marlon Byrd or Brandon Boggs in left field. Jarrod Saltalamacchia (the longest last name in big league history) or Max Ramirez behind the plate, and Ramon Vazquez at 3rd. Vazquez has hit 9th for much of the season, and has a .310 average, that will tell you something about the Rangers' lineup.
Alright so the Rangers obvious weakness is pitching. That's been the case for 36 years now. Kevin Millwood will start on Friday, followed by Eric Hurley and Vicente Padilla. Millwood and Padilla make a lot of money, but haven't delivered what the Rangers have expected. Padilla hasn't been bad. He has picked up 10 victories, and you can usually count on 6 good innings from him. Meanwhile Milwood's problem has been the 6th inning. Over the last month especially, he's had trouble getting out of that frame.
Over the last month the Rangers' top relievers have actually done a pretty nice job. C.J. Wilson is the Rangers' closer. He has 22 saves this season. He likes to make things interesting, but you can usually count on him to get the job done. If the Rangers head into the 8th inning wtih a lead, Minnesota fans can expect to see their old buddy Eddie Guardado. Every day Eddie has done a great job as the Rangers' set up man. Guardado has 19 holds, and has been lights out over the past month. If the Rangers go to the bullpen with a lead in the 7th, Frank Francisco is the man. The pitcher who was once known for getting in a fight with A's fans back in 2004, has done a nice job this season. Jamey Wright usually gets the assignment if the Rangers are down in a a close game in the 7th or 8th. The former starter has done a nice job in his role.
So there you go, I just wanted you Twins' fans to know a little more about the team you're facing this weekend. The Rangers started the year 7-16, but have gone 43-30 since. Ron Washington was reportedly days away from being fired, and there is now talk of a contract extension. It's been a very exciting summer for us Rangers' fans, especially since we haven't had much to cheer about over the last decade. At 50-46 the Rangers are 7.5 GB back of the Angels. They probably won't make the playoffs, but I also wouldn't count them out.
Thank you very much, Vic, for that look at the Rangers. So what do you think? Pitching matchups for the series:
Friday night - Glen Perkins (6-2, 4.14, 1.46, .301) vs Kevin Millwood (6-5, 5.11, 1.71, .321)
Saturday night - 6:05 - Livan Hernandez (9-6, 5.44, 1.62, .342) vs Eric Hurley (1-1, 3.57, 1.28, .253)
Sunday afternoon - 1:05 - Scott Baker (6-2, 3.47, 1.16, .254) vs Vicente Padilla (10-5, 4.70, 1.45, .271)
It's hard to imagine, but Kevin Millwood is pretty much as bad as Livan Hernandez. Not really surprising, but still. Secondly, from a 'stuff' standpoint, I have no idea why Vicente Padilla is so bad. Against the Twins, he always does well. He has a fastball in the 94 mph range. He also has a couple of other pitches including that really slow, Livan-like curveball. I know that his issue is more the mental side of the game, but he should be much better.

Thursday GAME NOTES
Twins Minor League Updates
Thursday SethSpeaks Player of the Day – Dustin Martin, New Britain Rockcats
Thursday SethSpeaks Pitcher of the Day – Francisco Liriano, Rochester Red Wings
Thursday –
7, Norfolk 4 – Francisco Liriano was certainly the story
during the day on Thursday. He was also the story on Thursday night. The lefty
turned in his fourth solid start in a row. In eight innings, he gave up one run
on seven hits. He walked zero and struck out eight. He is definitely close. 70
of his 103 pitches were strikes. Ricky Barrett got the first two outs of
the ninth inning, but he gave up three runs on two hits and two walks. Bobby
Korecky got the final out for his 13th save.
Howie Clark went 2-3 with a walk. Randy Ruiz was 2-4 with his 27th
double. Garrett Jones hit his 10th home run.
Thursday –
New Britain
15, New Hampshire 3
– It is almost hard to believe that this game was
at 5-3 going into the seventh, but the Rockcats clubbed ten runs over the final
three innings to take the big win. Dustin Martin went 4-4 with three
walks and his 20th double. Drew Butera went 3-5 with his fifth home run,
a grand slam in the 9th. Toby Gardenhire went 2-4 with two walks.
Felix Molina was 3-5 with his 13th double... and a walk. David Winfree
was 2-3 with three walks. Luke Hughes also had two hits. Jay Rainville
improved to 7-7 with five innings of work. He gave up three runs on five hits
and three walks. Zach Ward, back in the bullpen, went the next three
innings and gave up a run on four hits and two walks. Frank Mata threw a
scoreless ninth.
Thursday - Miracle, Daytona
– Postponed by Rain.
Thursday –
11, West Michigan 7 – Mike
McCardell started and improved to 7-2. He certainly wasn't as dominating as
he has been the last five weeks or more. He gave up five runs on seven hits in
five innings. He walked two and struck out seven. Charles Nolte gave up
an unearned run over the next two innings. Blake Martin gave up a run in
the final two innings for his first save. Estarlin de Los Santos went
3-5. Ben Revere had two doubles and four RBI. He also stole his 30th
base. Ramon Santana was 2-3 with his ninth double. Deibinson Romero
went 2-5.
Thursday -
3, Pulaski 4 – Dan Osterbrook was excellent, except for the
four run fifth inning. Those were the only four runs he gave up in six innings.
He gave up eight hits, walked none and struck out ten. Curtis Leavitt was
excellent again, with three shutout innings in relief. Evan Bigley went
2-4 with a double and two RBI. James Beresford was 2-3.
Thursday –
Twins 3, GCL Red Sox 1 –
Angelo Sanchez was again very solid in the start. He went the first five
innings and gave up just one run on three hits. He walked three and struck out
five. Jose Mijares got the Win with two one-hit innings in relief. He
struck out three. Kelvin Mota gave up just one hit and struck out one in
two innings for his third save. Tyler Ladendorf went 2-4 and got his
third stolen base.

Daniel Montes is a mechanic and Jesse Martin needs a tune-up. While Daniel checks under the hood, Jesse has a fantasy about Daniel offering his manhood through the car window. Jesse greedily sucks Daniel's thick curved cock as Daniel fucks his mouth. Daniel then fucks Jesse up against the car - then on the hood - giving the bottom boy a pounding he won't soon forget. Back to reality, Jesse finds himself once more in the driver's seat, jerking his cock until he spurts a hefty load all over. Daniel has been watching the show and squirts his own load under the hood.

More than 20 years after opening, John's Auto Repair is still breathing life into the community's cars. Its ASE-certified technicians have all kinds of automotive services up their sleeves and can identify problems on foreign and domestic cars. Furthermore, an International Automotive Technicians Network membership lets them tap into the internal-combustion brains of tens of thousands of automotive technicians around the world. The shop's free local shuttle service offers drivers the chance to catch a ride home instead of waiting around for repairs
Independent Repair Shop, Specializing in Import cars . We measure our performance by the feedback of our loyal customers have given us throught the years, It takes many years to develop a reputation for expertise, quality and integrity. That is why the maintenance of your vehicle is our top priority
The ASE–certified technicians at King Bear Auto Service Center of Lindenhurst top off fluids and change oil to tweak street schooners until they sail smoothly. The specialist starts the revitalizing package by spoon-feeding the auto with up to five quarts of 10W-30 oil, replacing its filter, and shielding it from being stuck with outdated political bumper stickers. The automotive medics then carefully top off all fluids and lubricate the rusty joints, hinges, and suspension. Next, your car opens wide for an in-depth 27-point inspection, where the belts, hoses, and cooling system spread their arms for a functionality test. Tires are checked for safety, and the exhaust system relaxes with a Swedish massage. Technicians then test interior and exterior lights for consistency, and a tire rotation ensures even wear among the four wheels. With a three-pass punch card, drivers can trick travel-weary cars into three checkups by persuading them they're going to the parking lot to mock speed bumps. In addition to any waiting time, each service takes approximately two hours.
Vehicles parade through Miller Place Star Wash & Fast Lube Center's wash tunnels seven days a week for a cleaning, or stretch out on a service bay and allow a trained technician to replenish their reserves of component fluids. Wash and detail packages come with myriad treatments, including Teflon–fortified sealant and paste wax that give cars the confidence to overcome mid-odometer crises. Standard and synthetic motor oils twirl through funnels and into cars to settle the friction between dry parts. Miller Place Star Wash uses biodegradable cleaning products, and instead of discarding their old oil, they recycle it into energy that heats and powers the building and its resident transformer.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Officials in some of Indiana's cities and towns are closely tracking a bill that seeks to ban municipalities from collecting fees for rental inspections and registration.
The Times of Munster reports the House Government and Regulatory Reform Committee is expected to act this week on the measure, which would ban collection of those fees starting July 1.
Hammond Mayor Thomas McDermott Jr. says his northwestern Indiana city charges rental registration fees to prevent substandard rental housing. He says that banning rental registration fees would harm those efforts.
Hammond requires landlords register their rental properties with the city each year and also pay an annual $80 fee for each rental unit.
City Controller Bobby Lendi says that last year the city brought in about $814,000 through its ordinance.

It's not every day you see a Hollywood star in Oklahoma. Actor James Marsden stopped by a Putnam City elementary school on Monday to read to the children at the school.
James Marsden, who was born in Stillwater, Oklahoma, in 1973, came to the Northridge Elementary School to read to all the third-grade students.
According to one of the third-grade teachers at the school, Marsden came to the school because his younger sister teaches third-grade classes there as well.
Marsden is famous for his role as "Cyclops" in the first three "X-Men" movies. He is also well-known for his part in several other movies, including Superman Returns, Enchanted, The Notebook, and 27 Dresses.

Well, the plan worked. Did anybody ask anything about the gun running?Mission acomplished.
Thank goodness the interview was conducted by Stewart, a completely unbiased reporter!
She is a documented liar. Questions?
After ruining her career covering for Obama, Rice is reduced to doing interviews on comedy shows.Perfect.
I have to give Stewart some credit....this is the fist time his MSM audience has ever heard of Bengazi
#5 is correct. Prior to the show, Stewart´s audience probably thought the Benghazi massacre was about a middle eastern celebrity who just got voted off the island.

Staff Writer
CINCINNATI - Jermaine Gresham was the last player to exit the practice field on day one of training camp Thursday. He could be seen from a distance putting in extra time with coaches long after the regular workout had ended. What stood out most was the sight of the Bengals tight end catching passes from the Jugs machine until the sun began to set.
Gresham is on a mission this summer while at the same time fighting to exorcise some demons.
"My whole intent during the offseason was to make up for where I left off in the playoff game last season," Gresham said after practice. "There's no doubt about it, I cost my team the game. My mindset since then has been about getting back to playing the position and catching passes on the field consistently instead of looking not so healthy out there at times. I had to get my mind right."
Gresham dropped a critical pass in Cincinnati's 19-13 playoff loss to the Houston Texans. The letdown performance has haunted him like the ghost of Christmas past.
"It's all about me being a professional," he said. "I owe it to the fans and people who got me here to do better because being a disappointment is not what I am. I'm just trying to make up for it. I'm another year wiser and know what's expected of me. I just have to do my job and not let my teammates down. It's sad that it has taken so long, but I'm really starting to figure some things out. Things will be different this year."
The 6-foot-5, 260-pound Gresham trained with four-time Olympic track-and-field gold medalist Michael Johnson in Texas during the offseason. The training was centered on football skills for overall performance rather than getting bigger or stronger. The imposing tight end was sleek and exceptional on his first day of training camp. He showed his athleticism catching the ball and blocking ability during 11-on-11 drills. His goal is to contribute more in the passing game this season.
Gresham put up some respectable numbers last season, hauling in 64 passes for 737 yards and five touchdowns, which earned him a second consecutive trip to the Pro Bowl. Despite the production and accolades as one of the league's elite, Cincinnati drafted tight end Tyler Eifert with the No. 21 overall pick. The Bengals selecting Eifert was a big deal and sent a strong message to the team's current starting tight end.
"It made me work harder," Gresham said. "I totally understand why the organization did it. I played like crap so they drafted a tight end. They put the paint on the wall and I accept it. I'm not going to back down from the challenge. Tyler is a great player and he's going to make plays for many years to come. There is nothing but respect there because we have the same common goal and that's to win it all."
The players are represented by CAA Sports agents and know each other well. Nevertheless, there will be spirited competition at the position in camp and both are expected to play significant roles in the offense.
"I want to lead by example and play the game like I know how," Gresham said. "I just want to fall in line with what Andy (Dalton) is doing. He's a great quarterback. I'm tired of everybody bashing him because he is a franchise quarterback. If I could I would sign him to a 12-year contract, he's that good. I'm just trying to do my part to contribute to the team.
"If they want me to go out there and block, I have to make sure that I am mentally and physically prepared to be that guy. I will do whatever it takes. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is us getting further along in the playoffs."

Bryan Fischer threw down the gauntlet on his radio program today, declaring the fight against homosexuality to be the defining battle of our time.
Asserting that America's future will be determined by "whether the forces of light or darkness will prevail in the battle over special rights based on sexually deviant behavior," Fischer asserted that "everywhere that Big Gay gains ground, Christ is forced into retreat."
As such, everything hinges on this battle and if the "forces of sexual normalcy" win, then America will once again become a beacon of morality and... MORE >

By now, it has been well-established that Bryan Fischer has a pretty warped understanding of the Constitution and what it means, so it didn't come as much of a surprise when he declared on his radio program today that by invoking her Fifth Amendment right not to testify when called before Congress, former IRS official Lois Lerner had essentially admitted her guilt.
As Fischer sees it, "by citing the Fifth Amendment, she is admitting that she's guilty ... What is Lois Lerner admitting when she invokes the Fifth? She is admitting that if she speaks the truth she will be a witness... MORE >

The Senate today failed to invoke cloture on the nomination of Debo Adegbile to head the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice. Every Senate Republican and seven Democrats voted to filibuster Adegbile's nomination after a concerted right-wing smear campaign targeted the nominee. (Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid also changed his vote to no as a procedural tactic.)
From the very beginning, the Right's problem with Adegbile was that he would be a strong leader of an office that they despise. As we wrote in January,
Conservatives have not been fans of the civil... MORE >

On his radio program today, Bryan Fischer offered up another defense of the Arizona law that would allow businesses to legally discriminate against gay customers in the name of protecting "religious liberty," declaring that opposition to the law is itself an effort to institute Jim Crow laws that discriminate against Christians.
"Yeah, Jim Crow is back," Fischer said, "but it's because of the work of Big Gay and their allies, including the NFL."
Claiming that the NFL has threatened to move the Super Bowl from Arizona if Gov. Jan Brewer does not "bow the... MORE >

On his radio broadcast today, Bryan Fischer read from a post by Pamela Geller warning that hundreds of Muslims refugees fleeing the civil war in Syria were arriving in the United States, a development which Fischer vehemently opposed because the only refugees that the United States should accept are Christians who are fleeing Muslim persecution.
Arguing that nobody is vetting these Syrian refugees in order to determine"if they've been involved in jihad," Fischer asserted that "if we're going to bring refugees from the war-torn nation of Syria, it ought to be reserved... MORE >

Apparently, the First Amendment requires allowing groups to place Bibles in hotel rooms because not doing it is "the very viewpoint discrimination and hostility towards religion that the First Amendment prohibits."

Last week, the Arizona legislature passed a bill that would allow businesses to legally discriminate against gay customers in the name of "religious liberty."
Predictably, Bryan Fischer has come out strongly in support of the law on the grounds that gay activists are "jack-booted homofascist thugs" who are trying to force Christian business owners to engage in sin.
"They are jack-booted homofascist thugs," Fischer said "who want to use the totalitarian and tyrannical power of the state to send men of faith to jail. That sounds far more like Nazi Germany than... MORE >

In was on Bryan Fischer's radio show last week where we first heard the absurd right-wing theory that the FCC was planning on stationing agents in newsrooms all over the country in order to "monitor" what sort of stories they ran. The entire thing turned out to be total nonsense, but the Right threw such a collective fit that the FCC pulled the plug on the study.
So naturally Fischer invited serial fabricator Todd Starnes on to his program today to talk about the issue. During the discussion, Fischer asked Starnes if he agreed with his conspiracy theory that the FCC will... MORE >

Technology offers lower upfront investment and economical total cost of ownership
CINCINNATI, Jan. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Award-winning telecommunications company, PowerNet Global, announced the nationwide rollout of their Hosted IP PBX system. This technology allows companies of all sizes to benefit from an Internet-based, sophisticated telecommunications system without a costly up-front investment in on-site equipment.
"For years, companies have invested in Premised Based PBX systems with hardware and software housed at their own locations," said Allison Stevens Stevens, CEO of PowerNet Global. "With a Hosted IP PBX system, companies can experience those same benefits and leave the technology maintenance to us."
IP PBX is a feature-rich telecommunications system that can assist businesses with their productivity, efficiency and customer-response. Multi-site businesses can also utilize it to connect their multiple offices together, offering a single communication solution. Premise Based Systems require companies to invest in on-site hardware to manage routing. These servers can become outdated over time or require upgrades when additional users are added to the system.
"With PowerNet Global's Hosted IP PBX, companies have more flexibility and lower upfront investment", Stevens said. "PowerNet Global hosts the system's centralized tasks and manages the hardware, leaving the leased telephone handsets to be the only investment for the customer."
"It's a simple solution that is more scalable and flexible for our customers," said John Putnam, vice president of sales at PowerNet Global. "We are excited to help a company evolve their telecommunications system as they grow and their needs change. Our Hosted IP PBX Solutions will help our customers increase productivity, improve customer satisfaction, and improve their overall corporate image."
The system is paired with PowerNet Global's telephone service, giving the customer the choice between metered or unlimited long distance plans. PowerNet Global also offers a variety of handset styles to choose from to meet customer needs. Companies can also select feature-rich software packages that can be used to manage and direct calls, establish conference calls, connect to cell phones through a mobile app, and manage multiple sites.
The features and benefits of the system are backed by superior customer service and support, including PowerNet Global's U.S.-based, 24/7 Network Operations Center (NOC).
"We're excited to be able to make this technology more accessible. With a smaller investment in hardware, and the flexibility to upgrade, scale, and choose features, Hosted IP PBX delivers a lower total cost of ownership," Putnam said. "That frees up a company's resources to focus on core business and leave the phones to us."
For more information about PowerNet Global's Hosted IP PBX, please contact John Putnam, Vice President of Sales at 1.888.836.9735, or via email at email@example.com.
