The project built on previous funded projects by exhibiting at new trade shows, conducting a trade mission to a new potential market, and showcasing new products that were not previously available. The timing for these activities was important as many free trade agreements will be implemented in the next 12 months opening up new opportunities in Columbia and Korea. The Cherry Marketing Institute worked jointly with the Michigan Department of Agriculture & Rural Development (MDARD) International Marketing Program, to secure booth space at major domestic and international trade shows for Michigan specialty crop commodity groups and companies to exhibit at during 2011. The project assisted specialty crop commodity groups in promoting their products both domestically and internationally. The specialty crop groups attended the shows to showcase Michigan specialty crops and focus on increasing sales of the products. Exhibiting at these shows helped to open up new opportunities for Michigan specialty crops, which is extremely beneficial especially in years when large crops are expected. PROJECT APPROACH The Cherry Marketing Institute worked jointly with MDARD to offer a number of domestic and international marketing opportunities to Michigan specialty crop groups. The groups participating in the various activities included commodity groups, Michigan farmers, growers and producers as well as companies and cooperatives. Booth space was purchased at a number of domestic and international shows for the specialty crop companies to exhibit at and to showcase their products. This approach was a great way for the groups to see existing customers as well as find new buyers and markets. An e-mail was sent to all Michigan commodity groups representing specialty crops. The e-mail was used to generate interest and participants for all of the events that were selected by the committee of commodity groups to participate in during the 2011 calendar year. The commodity groups also helped to promote to shows and activities by sending information to their growers and processors. Dear Specialty Crop Commodity Group, I am pleased to announce that the International Marketing Program is working with the Michigan Cherry Committee to utilize funding from the USDA’s Farm Bill Specialty Crop Block for booth space at some of the largest international and domestic trade shows in 2011. The goal of the Specialty Crop Block Grant is to promote Michigan specialty crops in the international arena. The trade shows we selected are among the most prominent in the world, which will bring high quality Michigan specialty crops to the forefront of the international buyers. Booth space at large international trade shows can be quite costly. Creating Michigan Pavilions will help defray some costs and bring national and world attention to our Michigan specialty crops. MDARD will manage and administer the booths at these shows. If you are interested in exhibiting at one of the following shows, please complete the attached document indicating the shows you are interested in exhibiting at during 2011 and return by January 26. Please contact me at (517) 241-3628 or [email protected] for more information. 1 2011 Michigan Pavilions for Specialty Crops: • Foodex Japan: Tokyo, Japan; March 1-4 • American Food Fair at National Restaurant Association Show: Chicago, IL; May 21-24 • Anuga: Cologne, Germany; October 8-12 • America’s Food and Beverage Show: Miami, FL; November 14-15 • Trade Mission for Specialty Crops to the Caribbean: Date TBD Activities Completed • Foodex Trade Show, Tokyo, Japan – March 1-4, 2011 The Cherry Marketing Institute worked jointly with the MDARD to offer the Michigan Specialty Crop Booth within the Official USA Pavilion at the Foodex Trade Show to Michigan specialty crop groups, including Michigan famers and companies. Booth space was purchased by the Cherry Marketing Institute to exhibit from and to promote their products. Other companies from Michigan with products containing specialty crops also participated in the Michigan Pavilion for a nominal cost that helped to pay for the booth space and signage. These specialty crop groups included: Honee Bear Canning and Triple D Orchards. This approach was a great way for the groups to find new international buyers and markets. This show provides a good opportunity to find potential buyers from a number of Asian countries. • National Restaurant Association (NRA) Show, Chicago, IL – May 21-24, 2011 The Cherry Marketing Institute worked with the MDARD International Marketing Program to secure booth space at the National Restaurant Association Show/American Food Fair in Chicago, Illinois, May 21-24, 2011 for Michigan specialty crop commodity groups and companies to exhibit their products. The project assisted specialty crop groups promote their products domestically and internationally.

  • Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
    Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition.

  • How to Switch Programs on the XDS Pro Using Serial Commands Every
    How to switch programs on the XDS Pro using Serial Commands Every Program transmitted via the XDS satellite system is associated with a Program ID that identifies the program to the receiver. Individual programs may be selected to the receiver’s output ports by issuing serial ID commands via the M&C (Console) Port on the back of the receiver, thereby changing the program that the receiver is decoding. If a program is selected for decoding using this method that is NOT part of the station’s list of authorized programming, it will NOT be decoded. Only programs authorized for the station that the receiver is assigned to can be decoded. Whenever possible, always use the XDS Port Scheduler as your main method of taking a program to ensure you receive the proper content. You can command the receiver as follows: 1) Start a terminal session (using HyperTerminal or equivalent) by connecting to the receiver’s M&C (Console) Port. The default settings for this Port are 115200, 8, None, 1. 2) Hit Enter. You should see a “Hudson” prompt. 3) Log in by by typing LOGIN(space)TECH(space)(PASSWORD) (Use your Affiliate NMS (myxdsreceiver.westwoodone.com) password OR you can use the receiver’s daily password (Setup > Serial # > PWD). 4) Login confirmation will be displayed (‘You are logged in as TECH’) Once you are logged in, the command to steer a Port on the receiver to a specific program PID is: PORT(space)LIVE,(Port),ID Examples: PORT LIVE,A,99 – This command will set Port A to Program ID 99 (Mark Levin) PORT LIVE,B,1196 – This command will set Port B to Program ID 1196 (CBS Sports - Tiki and Tierney) Please refer to the PID table listed below for the Program ID assignments for each program available on the Westwood One XDS receiver.

Box 4684 East Lansing, MI 48826-4684 Kyle Melinn: This conversation is part of the James J. Blanchard living library of Michigan Political History, a project of the Michigan Political History society. Hello, I'm Kyle Melinn, editor of the MIRS newsletter, joined by Susan Bolhouseolhouse. Today we're going to have a conversation with Bill Ballenger, former state legislators, state department director, racing commissioner, editor of two publications, including the Ballenger Report, a well-read political newsletter online. Bill, thanks for joining us today. Bill Ballenger: My pleasure, Kyle and Susan Bolhouse. Kyle Melinn: So I went through a lot of things that people may recognize your name and attach you to, but what do you attach yourself to, if you were to put your name on the tombstone, what would you want it to say? Bill Ballenger: Terminal political junkie. Kyle Melinn: Terminal political junkie. Explain that. Bill Ballenger: Well, I mean, I started out in politics, if you want to call it that, back in the 1960's working for the Republican state central committee in the fall of 1965 when Ellie Peterson was the first female state party chairman for either major political party in the entire country. And two years later I found myself in the Michigan legislature in the state house at the age of 27. In 1968, served one two-year term and then one four-year term in the Senate, and we were off to the races.
