Ok, now I'm really confused. The latest news on that Website is from September 2003. I got the website by searching Triangle Network under Google. Just wanted to see if I could find anything new. Was this their old Website? I'm sooo embarrassed if so. And I apologize for the post. Still... I think it is a much sharper presentation then the current Website. Oh well. JMHO IP: Logged |

I KNOW THIS IS A REPOST--I FIND IT VERY IMPORTANT. http://www.gfn.com/gfn/gfn50.phml > The Most Powerful & Gay-Friendly Public Companies in Corporate America To celebrate gfn.com's 5th Anniversary in 2003, look for our soon-to-be-announced plans for honoring the country's most powerful GLBT-friendly individuals and companies. In the meantime, consult our data from the 2001 gfn.com 50, a comprehensive list of the most powerful and gay-friendly publicly traded companies. Using the Fortune 500 and the gfn.com 500 as a starting ground, gfn.com’s team of experts spent weeks combing through economic reports, analyst findings and corporate policies on gay, lesbian and HIV policies. First and foremost, only public companies were considered, as public companies are responsible to their shareholders at large and not to a few private gay-friendly individuals. Second, only public companies within the Fortune 500 were considered because of the considerable influence that these companies exercise in shaping not only American corporate policy, but public perceptions, as well. It was also necessary that two basic prerequisites be satisfied before a firm could be considered for the list. Each company had to have a policy in place stating that it does not discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation. Second, the firm had to extend benefits to same-xxx domestic partners. From there, the companies were analyzed in terms of revenues, growth, economic power, as well as how they ranked on issues of corporate policies relating to diversity training, employee benefits, employee groups, nondiscrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in the sale or purchase of goods and services, advertising to the gay market and having in place a ban on any negative stereotypes based on sexual orientation, among others. Read last year's results. Discuss the gfn.com 50 in our forum! Rank Company Symbol ------------------ IP: Logged |

Pretty Good article on this website http://gfn.com/news/columns.phtml?sid=15738%3E Even though the editor does not mention Qbid until the end of the article on footnotes as additional smaller g/l networks....
Viacom is planning to launch 24-hour gay TV network LOGO in February 2005, but rivals PrideVision of Canada and here! TV may introduce theirs first. Launched as a gay pay-per-view service in August 2003, here! TV is available in 22 million households on DISH Network, DirecTV, and RCN cable, with more cable operators to come. The service will soon run in multiple formats, including subscriber video on-demand service (SVOD) launching next month, and the only commercial-free, premium channel in October. Lead by Los Angeles-based producer Paul Colichman, who produced independent film Gods & Monsters, here! TV claims a $100 million programming war chest and is to carry 40% original material nine hours a day, along with acquired material from Strand, TLA, and Wolfe Video. Meanwhile, Canada's PrideVision, launched September 2001, already claims the "world's first GLBT television network" title and is also racing to the U.S. market. It plans a fall launch here with its library of original shows, gay TV series, and late night male and female erotica. "We have everything we want, uncensored and unapologetic," says Jason Hughes, PrideVision director of sales & marketing. PrideVision owner Headline Media Group has an agreement with a major American cable company and is nearing a contract with a dish provider. The service has a nationally available mandate in Canada, with 15,000 household subscriptions costing $4-$6 a month (it will run higher in the U.S.). Advertisers there include Pepsi, Nissan, Nivea, Crest Whitestrips, movies and music companies, though none have made gay-specific commercials. However, the network suffered a big spending cutback a year ago. "We now have three years of research about what works," explains Hughes. Viacom's announcement was coincidental, he says, but has increased investors' interest for PrideVision in America and Europe.
Finally moving forward on an old, two-year-old gay channel plan, then called Outlet, Viacom/MTV Networks announced in late May it's launching LOGO. Without comment, it dumped the old name and Viacom partner Showtime, and lost the premium channel model. Viacom CEO Sumner Redstone confessed stalling the earlier plan was a mistake. He now tells investors it will cost $30 million to launch, but could be worth $1 billion. LOGO will be on regular digital cable with commercials on Time Warner, RCN and other, with 10 million homes projected for 2005. The look and name mystified some. The logo for LOGO is 1970s retro, and the O's contain the words "different" and "together." The web site proudly notes the name "is not an obvious pun or play on words; it's not clichéd or dated as could have easily been by using well known symbols," and "it appeals to a broad range of viewers and signifies the many meanings of identity." Predictably, the first advertisers will be familiar. LOGO's site confirms Viacom is "in discussions with many companies that already market to the gay audience, such as General Motors, American Express, Avis, Pfizer and many others. We already have some commitments from companies such as Orbitz, but we have just begun to reach out to advertisers." Because few advertisers have gay-targeted commercials, Viacom will "integrate their marketing messages into LOGO's programming," including product placement, program segments involving their brand, online integration, and contests. LOGO will be the most mainstream of its competitors. Original programs will be developed with Showtime, CBS News, VH1, MTV, and Comedy Central, and movie titles will be acquired from major studios. A mix of 75% acquired/licensed programming and 25% original series and specials is planned, targeting lesbians and gays ages 25-49, with no erotica, sex or profanity. Despite being the child of MTV Networks, gay youth are not in LOGO's plan, nor the competition's. Gay TV Travels To Europe Too Gay channels aren't just for North America. After several delays, Pink TV is still expected to launch in France this summer and GAY-TV of Italy became Europe's first gay network in May 2002, free to satellite dish owners. GAY-TV pulled in advertisers Dolce & Gabbana and Renault. The channel, owned by Dutch investor Coril, claims daily viewership of up to 500,000 Italians, half of whom are straight. Ironically, all gay networks and programs count on a substantial portion of straight viewers, up to a third or more, for success. To improve its profile, here! TV will spend about $3 million this year on promotional efforts in gay media and events, long before PrideVision and LOGO get started, though LOGO will have enormous promotional support on Viacom networks. Gay marketing firm Double Platinum will handle PrideVision's efforts. With an estimated 14-24 million American lesbians and gays, and strong interest from the general population, there may be room for several efforts. Consumers will quickly go from no gay channels to competing, 24-hour mainstream to edgy offerings. But currently, many major corporations pay more annually for paperclips than to reach the gay market. Interested advertisers need to increase their budgets for the higher costs of TV, and create appropriate commercials for the new networks. Gays are quickly becoming bigger business. Mike Wilke's Commercial Closet column covers gay issues in advertising, marketing and media. It is part of the non-profit project tracking 85 years of gay images in advertising worldwide. Its 1300+ image archive is at CommercialCloset.org. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IP: Logged |

Q Television Network (Pink Sheets: QBID) announces details surrounding the results of its industry launch, which began June 1. Within the first day of the network's availability on Intelsat America's 7, 129 degrees West, Channel 1, Q Television received considerable response from potential carriers and advertisers seeking more information regarding the network and its anticipated public launch. As a result, network executives will travel to New York City June 6 - 11 to meet with private equity funds, hedge funds and securities dealers. All of these firms have indicated a strong interest in the upcoming launch and the opportunity for equity participation. In addition, the executives also have appointments scheduled with cable companies and advertisers to present the current direction of Q Television Network. "We anticipated that the soft launch would generate lots of inquiries regarding the availability of Q Television for carriage and advertising," notes president Frank Olsen. "Yet we were amazed how quickly everything has moved forward within the past 24 hours." The network expects to announce major contracts within the coming weeks. IP: Logged |

When this hits the $ range, what out what you do with your Chalupas... http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,122056,00.html An Iowa man has been arrested for assault with an airborne chalupa, reports the Des Moines Register. Nancy Harrison was working the drive-through window at a Des Moines Taco Bell (search) Thursday evening when 24-year-old Christopher Lame pulled up and ordered food, Harrison told police. Lame got and paid for his food, but a little while later walked into the restaurant to complain he hadn't gotten what he'd ordered. Harrison asked him if he had his receipt. "What the [bleep]," he replied, according to Harrison. "Do I have to bring my receipt, too?" She said Lame went out to his car and came back with his bag of food. "There's the [bleeping] tacos," he allegedly said. Harrison replied that the restaurant was closing, and began to turn away, but not before an airborne chalupa hit her in the face. A chalupa (search) is basically a taco wrapped in a crispy deep-fried shell rather than the traditional baked shell. Lame ran out of the restaurant, Harrison told police, but she followed him into the parking lot and wrote down his license plate number. Lame was tracked down and given a citation for assault. He is scheduled to be in court June 15. --- ------------------ Jimbo... IP: Logged |

Is it possible the soft launch is literally to "potential carriers and advertisers from June 1" as stated in the first few lines of the article below ? Where only those folks have a special code or whatever to access this channel? Just a thought. Maybe a question that can be directed to the Q once they return to the office on Monday 6-14-04.

Hey guys, a little off topic, but relevent... I just got done reading a book by Ben Mezrich called "Ugly Americans" (don't worry, its not against America or unpatriotic at all) Its a real life finance book about how Americans went to Asia and raided the markets for billions, it's a good book, I highly recommend it. Anyways, one of the characters, Carney, has a set of trading rules called "The Eight Rules of Carney"... 1. Never get into something you can't get out of by the closing bell. Every trade you make, you're looking for the exit point. Always keep your eye on the exit point. I just thought these rules were interesting and a good set to follow for daytrading.

"I Will, I Do, We Did" offers an inside look at the journey taken by a dozen same-sex couples during this historic time, documenting the political and community chain of events that resulted in San Francsico becoming the first city in the nation to issue marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples. A joint production by Q Television Network and Roland Joseph Torres, principal of production firm Red Soapbox Visual Media, LLC, "I Will, I Do, We Did" is an example of Q Television's dedication to offering viewers programs that educate, inform and entertain. "Marriage rights are a top concern of the gay and lesbian community," observes vice president of programming and acquisitions Steven Grunberg. "Since Q Television Network was built by the gay community for the gay community, it was obvious that one of our first projects would focus on this issue." A preview of the documentary premiered in May at the National Cable & Telecommunication Association's annual industry conference and was included in a successful five-hour sample broadcast on May 15. The film is also airing as part of Q Television Network's industry launch, which began June 1. The network is available for viewing on Intelsat America's 7, 129 degrees West, Channel 1. A public launch is planned for July 2004. Q Television and Red Soapbox Visual Media are currently in preproduction on two additional collaborations: a behind-the-scenes look at the San Francisco PRIDE festival and a follow-up to "I Will, I Do, We Did." The team's second gay marriage film will consider the effects of divorce on the gay community and include the perspectives of judges and lawyers, as well as the couples interviewed for the film. About Q Television Network This television network was organized to create and develop a network devoted to providing television programming for the gay and lesbian community. While the company expects much of its subscriber base to be comprised of members of the gay and lesbian population, management also believes that quality programming about the gay and lesbian experience, designed to entertain, educate and inform, will attract many other segments of the viewing public. The company's programming will be available on a subscription basis to those desiring its programming. The network will broadcast 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Providing distribution via satellite ensures availability of the network across the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
