And, what a great Radiofest it was! Our new venue was nothing short of fantastic, and our hotel accommodations were a huge upgrade over last year. Our seller registrations were up over 9% compared with 2015 and the main auction bottom line was the second highest ever. It was, as always, a jam-packed event, and I know that even those who stayed for the entire duration could not possibly have experienced every part of it. But now you can read all about it right here! This month’s ARCI NEWS features individual, detailed articles covering every aspect of Radiofest 2016, including the main auction, ham station, RCA display, and equipment contest. So, take a little time to sit back, relax, and read all about what actually happened at our premier ARCI event! It goes without saying that pulling off a complex event like Radiofest 2016 was no small feat.

  • Required Recommended but Optional
    WOOSTER HIGH SCHOOL HONORS ENGLISH II SUMMER READING ASSIGNMENT Welcome to Honors English II. Honors English II is an intensive course for the serious, mature, and capable student that builds upon the language skills learned in previous grades by providing instruction and practice in various areas of the English curriculum: grammar, study skills, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, and oral communication. Summer Reading Rationale Summer reading helps students to: • Improve vocabulary and other language skills • Maintain reading skills over summer break • Develop fluency and independent reading skills • Become lifelong readers You have two (2) reading assignments to complete over the summer. One, you must complete the reading of Mitch Albom’s book Tuesdays With Morrie and, two, you must read one other book of your choosing from the attached list that contains one of the themes you will find in To Kill A Mockingbird (a book we will read in class when you return). You will be expected to annotate the books since you will be using the information you gather to write an essay about both books when you return to school in the fall. Since you are expected to take notes in the books, you are encouraged to buy your own copies, though you may use post-it notes for the annotating if you wish. You should carefully notice the following elements as you read and use them for the basis of your annotating: character, settings, conflicts, themes, plot development, and literary techniques. Complete this entire process for both books, as well as the starred steps for Morrie. GUIDELINES FOR TAKING NOTES DURING YOUR READING: Required INSIDE FRONT COVER: Character list with small space for character summary and for page references for key scenes, moments of character development, etc.

    4/3/2020 David Sarnoff - Wikipedia David Sarnoff David Sarnoff (February 27, 1891 – December 12, 1971) was a Russian-American businessman and pioneer of American radio and David Sarnoff television. Throughout most of his career he led the Radio Corporation of America (RCA) in various capacities from shortly after its founding in 1919 until his retirement in 1970. He ruled over an ever-growing telecommunications and media empire that included both RCA and NBC, and became one of the largest companies in the world. Named a Reserve Brigadier General of the Signal Corps in 1945, Sarnoff thereafter was widely known as "The General."[3] Sarnoff is credited with Sarnoff's law, which states that the value of a broadcast network is proportional to the number of viewers.[4] Contents Sarnoff in 1922 Early life and career Born February 27, 1891 Business career Uzlyany near RCA Minsk, Russian RKO Empire (present- Early history of television day Belarus) World War II Died December 12, 1971 Post-war expansion (aged 80) Later years Manhattan, New Family life York City, United States Honors Resting place Kensico Cemetery Sarnoff museum Valhalla, New York, See also United States References 41.0779°N Sources 73.7865°W Further reading Nationality Russian External links Citizenship American, Russian Years active 1919–1970 Employer Early life and career Marconi Wireless David Sarnoff was born to a Jewish family in Uzlyany, a small town in Company the Pale of Settlement of the Russian Empire, now part of Belarus, the Radio son of Abraham and Leah Sarnoff.

  • Lou Gehrig Autograph, Portland, Oregon
    Episode 10, 2006: Lou Gehrig Autograph, Portland, Oregon Gwen: Our first story takes us to Yankee Stadium for the inside story of baseball’s most famous speech. For 17 seasons, Lou Gehrig earned his rank as one of baseball’s greatest players. A phenomenal slugger and first baseman, he led the Yankees to seven World Series, knocking ball after ball out of the park. Then in 1939, the Iron Horse began to stumble. As much as he trained, he couldn’t escape a relentless slump. That summer, the mystery was finally solved. Gehrig was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or A.L.S., now known by many as Lou Gehrig’s disease. The incurable illness was paralyzing him, yet on July 4, 1939, without self-pity or fear, he courageously declared that life was well worth living. Gehrig: Today, I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth. [Cheers and applause] Gwen: More than 60 years later, a baseball fan from Portland, Oregon, may have a ticket that takes us behind the scenes that famous day. Ed Goldberg: I found the ticket in my mother’s high school yearbook. I looked at this ticket, and I said, “this can’t be what I’m seeing.” My mother never, ever told me about this. Gwen: I’m Gwen Wright, and I’m meeting Ed Goldberg to learn more about his mother’s baseball ticket. I’m Gwen, nice to meet you. Ed: Yeah, come on in. Gwen: Thanks. So how did you find it, Ed? Ed: This is my mother’s high school yearbook.

Gehl B.M., St. Olaf College, 1983 M.A., University of Minnesota, 1990 Advisor: bruce d. mcclung, Ph.D. ABSTRACT A successful composer and conductor, Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873–1943) fled Russia at the time of the Bolshevik Revolution never to return. Rachmaninoff, at the age of forty-four, transformed himself by necessity into a concert pianist and toured America for a quarter of a century from 1918 until his death in 1943, becoming one of the greatest pianists of the day. Despite Rachmaninoff‘s immense talents, musicologists have largely dismissed him as a touring virtuoso and conservative, part-time composer. Rather than using mid-twentieth-century paradigms that classify Rachmaninoff as a minor, post-Romantic, figure, a recent revisionist approach would classify Rachmaninoff as an innovator. As one of the first major performer-composers in America to embrace recording and reproducing technology, along with the permanence and repetition it offered, Rachmaninoff successfully utilized mass media for twenty-five years. Already regarded as a conductor and composer of appealing music, Rachmaninoff extended his fame by recording and performing his own works, and those of others.
