Intonational languages and language varieties without lexical tone, moreover, provide excellent opportunities to understand the way humans exploit this phonetic space for the signalling of contrasts, in this case conveying information on the communicative status of sentence constituents.
European languages certainly give short shrift to the notion ‘intonation language’, as illustrated by the dialect of Maastricht, which appears to have a more complex intonation system than many intonation languages elsewhere in Europe and the world, yet has lexical tone (cf.
The phonology of tone and intonation in the Dutch dialect of Venlo.

 Touch Tone Information, Inc.
The case against Touch Tone Information, Inc. represents the first federal action against an information brokerage agency engaged in such practices.
Touch Tone offers to sell this information, which includes current bank or brokerage account numbers and specific balances on its Web site at: http://pidirectory.com/touchtone (no period).
The Commission alleged that Touch Tone obtains consumers' information by "pretexting." As the Commission testified at Congressional hearings last summer, pretexting is a term of art coined by the private investigation industry to describe the practice of getting personal information about others under false pretenses.

Almost from the moment of the start of his project to increase public appreciation of twelve-tone music, Krenek was engaged in a continual process of adapting and altering Schoenberg& ideas.
All twelve pieces are based on the same series, and the four basic forms of the series are utilized in a manner which is quite consistent with Schoenberg& conception of twelve-tone theory.
In his notes on the compositional technique of this collection, Krenek observes that “in the subsequent four pieces the basic tone row is used in different, less rigid ways, showing more recent developments of the twelve-tone technique.” In these pieces, the row is divided into groups of tones (into three four-tone groups in No.

 :::M-Internet360:::: July 2004
The ringback tone (or audible ringing tone) is the audio signal that informs the caller that the called party's phone is either engaged or is ringing; it is what people calling a telephone number hear between the time they finish entering the digits and when the call is answered.
The tones are polyphonic only in the strictest sense of the word; most of the arrangements are very minimalistic, and sound as if they were played with programmed chords and single-hand melody fingering (to be fair, the sound quality for most American ringtones is not much better).
AirTel today launched the Ring Back Tone service, which enables the caller to hear songs and other sound clips instead of the traditional switchboard ring tone, and said this value added service will be the next major revenue earner for the brand after SMS.

The ringback tone (or audible ringing tone) is the audio signal that informs the caller that the called party's phone is either engaged or is ringing; it is what people calling a telephone number hear between the time they finish entering the digits and when the call is answered.
Relatively few European operators have introduced ringback tone services to date, but many are currently examining the technological implications and the business case.
Ringback tones is one of the services that is most open to viral marketing as the called party markets the service to callers.

Wolfe's journalism was new--a subset of the larger, established category of literary journalism--to the extent that he engaged his subject "experientially," and the posture was hitherto uncommon.
Wolfe soon rejected the traditional prescription that reportorial tone and perspective remain impersonal, and that any overt sense of the writer's presence be distilled.
4 Wolfe's tone was as bold as it was casual: his writings "read like personal letters--open, unassuming, intimate" (Kallan 1975, 109).

 PressThink: Zachary Roth (And His Boss) Respond to "The Morals Squad at CJR's Campaign Desk"
Campaign Desk took a position on an important issue of journalistic standards and practices, suggested and then engaged in a public debate about them, because that’s what we do here.
Campaign Desk made other choices besides the ones that might be grouped (without really fitting) under “tone.” One of them is “argument by authority.” If I say to you: I’m a priest, you’re the laity, and I know what the Church says on this subject… that’s argument by authority.
We knew from the start that setting the right tone for the Desk would be a matter of daily, even hourly modulation.

 Zvon - RFC 3603 [Private Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Proxy-to-Proxy Extensions for Supporting the PacketCable Distributed Call Signaling Architecture] - P-DCS-OSPS
We define three values in this header, namely "BLV" for busy line verification, "EI" for emergency interrupt, and "RING" for operator ringback (e.g., howling/sustained tone ring in the US).
For example, when a user is engaged in a call and another call arrives, such a call might be rejected with a busy indication.
Similarly, emergency calls to a 9-1-1 Public Service Access Point (PSAP) may result in trunk signaling causing operator ringback using a howling tone or sustained ring on the originating line (country-specific variations may exist).

The Rockman Instrument EQ - Model 200 is a nice little EQ that is very important to use with Rockman Sustainor.
Just like the Sustainor, the Model 200 EQ units have the white "Rockman Instrument Equalizer" lettering, and the 100's have the blue.

 Principles of Counterpoint
The "liberties" at the end (the change of chord on the last beat of bar 3, and the accented passing tone on the beat f bar 4) are musically fluent and logical, and should not be prohibited.
To better make this point, one might use a social analogy: contrapuntal lines are like individual voices in a community, engaged in conversation.
When there is more than one tone color present, all other things being equal, the ear separates the musical texture into strands based on color differences.

 AM STEREO Stations
Apparently, CIGM has their Motorola C-QUAM exciter engaged in stereo mode, but the pilot tone switch is set to the "OFF" position.
This state of affairs effectively tells any AM STEREO capable radio not to turn the stereo decoder circuitry on, since it "looks" (or rather listens) for a pilot tone and when it doesn't find one, it "concludes" that the signal is monophonic.
Note : While CIGM is indeed broadcasting in AM STEREO, you can only hear them in stereo if you're using a radio that is capable of "forced stereo reception" such as the the SONY SRF series models (A1, A100, 42) or the Metrosound AMS 400 unit.
