Opening the OLLI at UVa Course Catalog is a great step on this leg of your journey of lifelong learning. I encourage you to take your time and read about each of our courses and outings. They will satisfy your curiosity, spark your creativity, challenge and amuse you. I’d like to share with you that our online registration system is available for use on July 25! You may remember that we took it off line during the last registration cycle due to a confluence of malfunctions resulting in non-recorded registrations, over charges, and frustration all around. We have worked all spring to resolve and repair the issues with the server, our database, and the online registration site; we’ve tested it thoroughly in a development environment and in our live environment. It is fully functional and I assure you that you can use it with confidence. You will find instructions on how to register online on page 52. In addition to Sessions A and B, check out our Summer Session beginning in August. It features three lectures, accompanied by a little wine and cheese set in historic Michie Tavern as well as a new course from an old favorite. You’ll find the schedule on page 4. OLLI at UVa is always seeking ways to build on the success of the semester that just closed. That search led us to an opportunity to offer an OLLI at UVa level course set in historic Berlin, Germany. Our own Gordon Stewart created the course “Seminar in Berlin” complete with daily lectures, color commentary at the various points of interest, and bibliography of supplemental reading. Gordon, along with his Seminar Assistant Lloyd Raupp and his Tour Director, Linda Hahn, will ensure that the group will experience the culture and learn the history and complexities of Berlin. This October 2017 trip is a joint initiative with Senior Center, Inc. and is a model we hope to continue to use. Join us at Taste of OLLI in July to preview some of the semesters offerings. We host this event in Charlottesville, Nellysford, and Staunton. You meet instructors, fellow students, and learn more of what is new. I hope you’ll come and bring a friend - this is a fun way to get to know OLLI at UVa.

Box 1412, Staunton, VA 24402 www.thoi.org The Calendar Our mission is to perpetuate Jewish life and identity through a welcoming community of spirituality, learning, service, joy and worship November 2016 / Tishrei – Cheshvan 5777 Dear Temple House of Israel, In the president’s message I usually try to look ahead, but this time I must look back over our President’s very recent high holidays. Beginning and ending with lovely meals as a community made the season special. The Women’s Group’s Elizabeth Schwartz and Bonny Strassler did such a good Message job organizing the menus. The services were thoughtfully prepared and rendered by Rabbi Joe and Rabbi Joel. Laura Mandeles filled in the melodies, accompanied by Linda Blazer, Sarah Grove-Humphries and Samantha Mandeles. My hope is that you stored away some good memories of this particular season. Maybe the next time you think of the story of Jonah you will catch a mental glimpse of us sitting together in the social hall, talking about Jonah’s bad attitude. Or as you approach the temple one evening you remember us at the front door ready to enter on Rosh Hashana eve with three shofars wailing in the night air. Or you remember the bima crowded with Browns and Rosenbergs, the Havdalah candles blazing. Good memories to all. Rosalie Waterman, temple president Dear Temple House of Israel Congregants and Friends, I hope that your High Holy days were a meaningful and uplifting time.

  • 8/1/94 Press Release
    NEWS RELEASE Gray Reports Record Operating Results for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2019 Atlanta, Georgia – November 7, 2019. Gray Television, Inc. (“Gray,” “we,” “us” or “our”) (NYSE: GTN) today announces record results of operations for the three-months ended September 30, 2019. Financial Highlights, Selected Operating Data and Other Recent Developments: • Record Third Quarter Results - Our revenue for the third quarter of 2019 was $517 million, increasing $238 million, or 85%, from the third quarter of 2018, our all-time best quarterly revenue. Our net income was $59 million, and was our second best third quarter net income. Our Broadcast Cash Flow was our all-time best quarterly result ever at $192 million, increasing $57 million, or 42%, from the third quarter of 2018. Comparing our reported results to our previously issued guidance for the third quarter of 2019, our as-reported total revenue was near the high end of our previously issued guidance while our broadcast and corporate operating expenses were each below the low end of our guidance. Our Adjusted EBITDA significantly exceeded the high end of our guidance. • Political Revenue – Our political advertising revenue was $22 million for the third quarter of 2019, significantly exceeding our previously issued guidance of $11 million to $12 million. For comparison, after giving effect to stations acquired and divested between January 1, 2017 and September 30, 2019, we earned $8 million of political advertising revenue in the third quarter of 2017, which was the most recent non-election year. Our political advertising revenue for the third quarter of 2019 was therefore 175% greater than that of the third quarter of 2017, on this adjusted basis.

  • Media Highlights
    Virginia Tech Innovation Campus November 13 - 16, 2018 View this email in your browser Image clipped and modified from Axios article Media Highlights This week's report focuses on the new Innovation Campus announcement alongside Amazon's selection of Northern Virginia for one of their headquarters. Virginia Tech and Amazon were mentioned over 1000x including in Associated Press x2, Washington Post x5, Axios x2, Forbes x2, CNN x2, USA Today, NPR's Marketplace, POLITICO x4, Yahoo News x2, BBC and CNBC among many others. There were also nearly 200 broadcast mentions, as an example DC area radio station WTOP aired a clip mentioning the new campus about 12 times a day. Associated Press - Biggest lure for Amazon to Virginia may be campus, not cash Instead, he said what made Virginia's bid distinct was "investments in our people," particularly a $1 billion Virginia Tech graduate campus to be built near the new Amazon headquarters that will churn out hundreds of qualified high-tech workers annually. More coverage: A look at what's in Amazon's new deal with Virginia Axios - What they're saying: Reaction to Amazon's HQ announcement Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.), which includes Arlington County: "...The infusion of jobs, the diversification of our tax base, the Commonwealth's dramatic expansion of computer science training in Virginia colleges and universities, starting with a new Virginia Tech graduate campus in Alexandria: these are some of the tangible gains of this victory. I am also eager to learn more and to work together as a state and region to confront the challenges this will inevitably bring to affordable housing and transportation." More coverage: 1 big thing: Amazon's new quest Sands tells Axios that the school already had expansion plans, which were accelerated to win the competition for Amazon.
