In the early morning hours Wednesday, the crescent moon will occult, or pass in front of, Venus. The Reagan Test Optics on Kwajalein and Roi-Namur are planning to shoot video and film of the phenomenon, according to Bob Carson, Optical Instru- mentation Systems manager.

DESCRIPTORS *Childrens Television; Content Analysis; Preschool Education; *Programming (Broadcast); Television Research IDENTIFIERS Sesame Street ABSTRACT Following a content analysis, 85 children's programs were assigned a pacing index derived from the following criteria:(1) frequency of camera cuts;(2) frequency of related scene changes;(3) frequency of unrelated scene changes;(4) frequency of auditory changes;(5) percentage of active motion;(6) percentage of active talking; and (7) percentage of active music. Results indicated significant differences in networks' pacing overall and in the individual criteria: the commercial networks present the bulk of the very rapidly paced programming (much of it in the form of cartoons), and those networks devoted primarily to educational programming--PBS and The Learning Channel--present very slow-paced programs.

  • Response to This Article About the Hasbro/Discovery Hub Shift In
    Response to this article about the Hasbro/Discovery Hub shift in power...which turned into another my long-winded, thoughtful rants: http://online.wsj.com/articles/discovery-to-take-control-of-the-hub-network- 1410979842 Well, that's...somewhat shocking. From what I can tell, the Hasbro/Discovery partnership in The Hub has been an amazing success. I watch the channel almost every day. Most of its programming is--and has been, for the past 3.5 years--excellent. From the original series (FiM, Pound Puppies, Strawberry Shortcake, LPS, Dan Vs., Aquabats Super Show, Family Game Night, Care Bears, Transformers, Haunting Hour), to all the other wonderful shows/sitcoms (oh my goodness!! Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs, Goosebumps, Laverne & Shirley, Happy Days, Mork & Mindy, Step By Step, Who's the Boss, Family Ties, The Facts of Life, Sister, Sister, Sabrina, Atomic Betty, etc.), to the extremely well-chosen family movies (I loved it when they aired the Homeward Bound films, All Dogs Go to Heaven 2...today I saw Spaceballs...and they've just made so many other great movie picks every season.) They've been an outstanding example of listening to your viewers and giving them what they want. Even their misfires and middle-of-the-road shows are more than bearable (SheZow, animated Sabrina, Teenage Fairytale Dropouts, Kid President, Parents Just Don't Understand, and such.) If Hasbro were to grow dissatisfied with controlling six hours of its toy-based cartoons daily on Hub (which seems like a fair deal they've cut, tbh), and moved them over to Cartoon Network or Disney...well, at least the shows would still continue on, and be a MASSIVE boon to either of those channels.

DESCRIPTORS Childhood Needs; *Childrens Television; *Educational Television; Graphs; *Programming (Broadcast); *Public Television; *Scheduling; Strategic Planning; Television Viewing IDENTIFIERS *Public Broadcasting Service ABSTRACT Scheduling the morning "kiddie" block has become an important issue since PBS's (Public Broadcasting Service) 1990-91 children's initiative. Adding to the mix of children's programs is the upcoming "PTV, The Ready to Learn Channel on PBS." This services promises more children's titles as well as more hours of material for stations to manage. Ten model stations will be airing one of its two different schedules during the start-up period. Stations that are not airing "PTV" are faced with putting all the pieces of this puzzle together properly to provide service to small children. This report addresses this issue by examining weekday morning schedules and associated ratings on 6 selected stations during November 1993 and offers guidelines on putting together the morning schedule. Some best-case examples of what can be accomplished using sound scheduling strategies are looked at. Then, less successful strategies are discussed in order to show what should be avoided. Graphs show various station schedules, kid 2-5 ratings, and kid 2-5 PUTs (persons using television) across the Monday through Friday morning block.

They get to and from work safely every day. Now the Army knows. It recog- nized the department with a 10-year Award of Excellence for safety, pre- sented Thursday by visiting SMDC Commander Lt. Gen. John Costello. When I was in the airborne, pilots always asked us why we would jump out of perfectly good aircraft and we always said, Ive never seen a per- fectly good aircraft. But if I have, it would probably be here at Kwajalein, Costello said. The award recognizes more than 10 years of safe operations by the department. According to Steele Clayton, Avia- tion safety manager, safe operations are achieved when a units aircraft have no serious incidents over a given period of time.
