There’s Nothing Mainstream About the Corporate Media
As we stumble toward another presidential election, it's never been more clear that our political process is being warped by a corporate stranglehold on the free flow of information. Amidst a virtual blackout of coverage of a horrific war, a global ecological crisis and an advancing economic collapse, what passes for the mass media is itself in collapse. What's left of our democracy teeters on the brink. The culprit, in the parlance of the day, has been the "Mainstream Media," or MSM. But that's wrong name for it. Today's mass media is Corporate, not Mainstream, and the distinction is critical. Calling the Corporate Media (CM) "mainstream" implies that it speaks for mid-road opinion, and it absolutely does not. There is, in fact, a discernable, tangible mainstream of opinion in this country.
Toshiba Satellite P200 (PSPB6A-036024)
The final word: The addition of an HD-DVD-ROM puts this new P200 in a whole new class, and the implementation of the latest Centrino platform gives it a touch more power and battery life, too. THE Toshiba Satellite P200 (PSPB6A-036024) bears the same name as the Toshiba Satellite P200 we reviewed recently, but includes some fairly defining additional features. The most noteworthy of these are the high-definition (HD)-DVD-ROM drive, which doubles as a DVD-RW (DL) drive, and Toshiba's use of the latest Intel Centrino Platform, formerly codenamed Santa Rosa. Intel Centrino is a brand that only applies to notebooks which adhere to Intel's specifications. These include one of the latest Intel Core 2 Duo CPUs, Intel wireless technology and an Intel GM/PM965 Express Chipset.
Smoltz going his own way in spring
Lake Buena Vista, Fla. — Given the property is owned by a corporation devoted to fantasy, it followed Friday that John Smoltz was allowed to stand on a mound generally reserved for minor-leaguers and pitch in his own private Idaho. "Strike!" yelled the umpire, Bobby Cox. (He was in the bag.) This 23rd spring training will be like no other for Smoltz, assuming you can find him. He won't pitch in an actual game for at least two weeks, maybe three. Until then, games will pretty much take place in his cranium. It's sort of like a self-imposed exile. The right-hander has tried to approach spring like a veteran pitcher is supposed to: just work on pitches and situations, forget about winning. But drive and ego invariably take over. "When you get the bases loaded and give up some runs, you just revert back to wanting to get guys out," he said.
MOTU previews upcoming Digital Performer 6 release
In the resulting comp take, crossfades can be applied, along with all standard operations for editing audio regions in a DP track. Users can then use the resulting comp track as yet another take itself, which allows users to “comp the comp" by incorporating any portion of an existing comp take into a new comp take. Additional features include ProVerb, a processor-efficient convolution reverb plug-in that delivers the acoustic spatial sounds to any track or mix. A Dynamic Mix feature automatically “ducks" the wet signal as the dry input signal rises, then raises the wet mix as the dry signal level subsides. MasterWorks Leveler is an accurate model of the legendary Teletronix LA-2A optical leveling amplifier, known for its Automatic Gain Control (AGC) characteristics. The Digital Performer engineering team works closely with Apple engineering on a on-going basis to continue improving Digital Performer on the Mac as an advanced platform for music and audio production.
Two more sentenced in Murrieta 'Fight Club' case
Parents, teach your sons to be nice to others, to think about their long term plans. Its obvious the parents of these gangmembers just didn't care. Bo wrote on Feb 23, 2008 10:14 AM:It's very refreshing to see the justice system reconize a gang as a gang regardless of race, location, or family financial status. Railroad Engineered wrote on Feb 23, 2008 10:31 AM:25 years for first degree burglary. first degree burglary is eaither at night,or with a weapon. 25 years this is outragous. 19 years for the same deal. no one is hurt you don't even know if they threatend anyone with the guns or just had them on their persons. Gang cercumstance is just crap,this is a bunch of dumb kids doing really stupid stuff. This behavior dose not warrant those kinds of sentence's.
