  • 2012 Annual Report from the Director
    News, Conversation, Music, Entertainment, Innovation, Community. Wisconsin Public Radio’s 2012 Annual Report From the director . While I’m not from Wisconsin, it didn’t take me long to fully embrace my new home. I grew up in New York State and have spent much of my life living up and down the east coast, from Vermont all the way down to Florida. When I moved to Wisconsin in 2008 I found myself quickly becoming a Packer fan. The idea of a team owned by the fans makes a lot of sense to me. And the fans’ passionate “Go Pack Go!” spirit reminds me of the way listeners talk about WPR: it’s the property of the people of Wisconsin and you love it deeply! While the Packers didn’t win another Super Bowl, 2012 was still an eventful year in Wisconsin. Our news team spent much of the year covering elections, from the recalls in state government to the congressional and presidential races on the federal level. Wisconsinites from every side of the aisle turned to us for accurate, honest and unbiased coverage of these important events. Our online collaborations with Wisconsin Public Television included a revamped voter information website, WisconsinVote.org, and WisconsinDrought.org, a valuable resource for those affected by the devastating heat wave last summer. Changes to our line-up included the retirement of Here on Earth host Jean Feraca, the passing of our friend and colleague Jim Packard and the addition of Mike Arnold, who serves as WPR’s Director of Content. Mike brought new perspectives to our program strategy and several new shows to our schedule.

  • The United States Government Manual 2000/2001
    The United States Government Manual 2000/2001 Office of the Federal Register National Archives and Records Administration Revised June 1, 2000 Raymond A. Mosley, Director of the Federal Register. John W. Carlin, Archivist of the United States. On the cover: The Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial during the restoration of the monument (from the holdings of the National Park Service). In preparation for the bicentennial of the Nation's Capital and the new millennium, the National Park Service embarked on a mission to repair the external damage to the monument caused by weather and time and renovate various systems of the interior of the monument. The monument, which opened to the public in 1888, was erected in honor of the Nation's first President, George Washington, and is the tallest freestanding masonry structure in the world. The restoration project includes repairing the stonework, cleaning the facade, modernizing the heating and cooling systems, improving the elevator, and updating the facilities and refurbishing the exhibits on the observation level. To beautify the monument during its restoration while creating a safe workplace for restoration workers, National Park Service constructors erected scaffolding that, in the words of designer Michael Graves, ``echoes the obelisk's beauty even while covering its exterior.'' For more information on the Washington Monument and its restoration, scheduled for completion in 2000, visit the National Park Service Internet site at www.nps.gov/wamo. Special thanks to Terry J. Adams, Office of Public Affairs, National Park Service for his cooperation and permission to use the photograph of the monument for the cover of the Manual.
