The minute you crossed over into Swampscott, though, spaces were scarce.

Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Notice of Ex Parte Communication, GN Docket No. 12-268, MB Docket No. 16-306. Dear Ms. Dortch: In an effort to help its radio members better understand and prepare for the impacts of the post-auction transition of repacked television stations, NAB commissioned a study to determine which FM stations are likely to need to coordinate with TV stations making adjustments following the Incentive Auction. This analysis identifies 678 FM stations that may need to reduce power, shut down, or operate from an auxiliary facility as work is being done on a neighboring TV station antenna to ensure tower worker safety from radio frequency exposure. A copy of this analysis is attached. We look forward to working with the Commission to ensure the smoothest possible transition for broadcast viewers and listeners.

  • Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger, Notre Dame's Famous Walk-On: the True Story
    Name: Teacher: Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger, Class: Notre Dame's Famous Walk-On: The True Story Date: By Dan Scofield (Notre Dame Featured Columnist) on January 18, 2010 This Christmas I was handed a gift bearing the logo of my football team. After tearing apart the beautifully snowflake- wrapped gift, the word "Rudy" stared me down in bold maroon letters with a certain No. 45 uniform in the colors of blue and gold, being carried off on the shoulders of his teammates. My Christmas night, along with my father's, was then spent watching the tale of Rudy Ruettiger for the first time. As a dedicated, yet young, Irish fan, I've come to notice the moment Notre Dame is hinted at in any circumstance, the mention of Rudy is soon to follow. However, that Saturday night was the first time I was able to watch the film that further popularized the already-illustrious university. Everyone knows the lines, Sean Astin, and the fairy tale ending of the film. However, who was the real Rudy Ruettiger and what was his story? The Development of a Dream On Aug. 23, 1948, Daniel Ruettiger was born in Joliet, Illinois as the third child out of 14 in his family. He grew up in a lower-middle class household on the outskirts of Chicago, where his father worked in a mine to put food on the table every night for Rudy and his siblings. One bright spot in the family's home would appear on the television when Notre Dame kicked-off each weekend.

  • Evaluation of WVPE-FM Compliance with Selected Communications Act and Transparency Requirements As of March 24, 2021, Report No
    Office of the Inspector General May 20, 2021 To: Jackie J. Livesay, Deputy General Counsel and Vice President, Compliance Michael Levy, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Kathy Merritt, Senior Vice President, Radio, Journalism and CSG Services From: Kimberly A. Howell, Inspector General Subject: Evaluation of WVPE-FM Compliance with Selected Communications Act and Transparency Requirements as of March 24, 2021, Report No. ECR2106-2106 We have completed an unannounced evaluation of compliance with selected requirements of the 2021 Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) Community Service Grant (CSG) awarded to WVPE-FM, licensed to Elkhart Community Schools, Elkhart, Indiana. Our specific objectives were to verify compliance with twelve requirements of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (Act) for open and closed meetings and open financial records, as well as the CSG General Provisions and Eligibility Criteria (General Provisions) for transparency as presented in Exhibit A. Background information on the station and CSG program can be found in Exhibit B. Our scope and methodology are discussed in Exhibit C. Based on our review of the WVPE-FM website on February 26, 2021, we found the station was compliant with nine of the ten requirements applicable. Two requirements were not applicable. The station was not compliant with the open financial records requirement because the most recent CPB Annual Financial Report (AFR) was not posted on the station’s website. Station management promptly posted the most recent AFR to the website after we presented our preliminary observations to them. WVPE-FM is now compliant with open financial record requirements. We recommend that CPB require WVPE-FM to identify what controls it will implement to ensure future compliance with Act and CSG transparency requirements to post its AFR on the website.
