A Massachusetts Yankee in the Court of Charleston: Jasper Adams, College President in Antebellum South Carolina By Gerald Vaughn Massachusetts clergyman and educator Jasper Adams (1793-1841) was among the line of notable descendants of Henry Adams (1583- 1646), who fled persecution in England circa 1630 and settled on a farm in the Braintree area, then part of Boston. The most notable of Henry Adams’s descendants include U.S. presidents John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Millard Fillmore, William Howard Taft, and Calvin Coolidge, and Vice-President Richard Cheney. John Adams erected a monument in Henry Adams’s honor in Quincy, Massachusetts. Jasper Adams grew to manhood in Massachusetts. His travels in adult life took him from Massachusetts to South Carolina, where he gained his renown. While his career was spent mostly in the south he was a Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, at Boston, and a Corresponding Member of the Massachusetts’ Historical Society.

  • Restoring Historical Understandings of the “Public Interest” Standard of American Broadcasting: an Exploration of the Fairness Doctrine
    International Journal of Communication 7 (2013), 89–109 1932–8036/20130005 Restoring Historical Understandings of the “Public Interest” Standard of American Broadcasting: An Exploration of the Fairness Doctrine CHRISTINA LEFEVRE–GONZALEZ University of Colorado, Boulder The “public interest” standard is a phrase that American broadcast regulation has not clearly defined throughout its history. Media scholars have attempted to locate the “true” meaning of the public interest standard by historicizing its use through broad analyses of broadcast regulation, but this approach has provided inadequate frameworks for understanding how the public interest standard has informed broadcast policy. By centering its historical analysis on the Fairness Doctrine, this article uncovers four dominant definitions for the public interest standard: first, as an enforcer of structure and efficiency of the spectrum; second, as part of the trusteeship of licensed broadcasters; third, for social justice and reform; and fourth, for the tastes and preferences of the public. The “public interest” is a phrase that, in the words of Richard Weaver (1953), possesses a “charismatic” quality. Political scientist Frank Sorauf (1957) described the concept as reflecting “the highest standard of governmental action, the measure of the greatest wisdom or morality in government” (p. 616). Some scholars believe that this idyllic phrase, an important rhetorical feature of American broadcast policy, possesses an indiscernible meaning that is susceptible to political will. Legal scholars Krattenmaker and Powe (1994) describe the standard as “either an empty concept or one that is infinitely manipulable” (p. 143). Zlotlow (2004) argues that the poorly defined standard “was both an empty concept and infinitely manipulable” (p.

  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

  • Maritime Pilot and Docking Pilot Commission
    The New Jersey Maritime Pilot and Docking Pilot Commission "The sea is the same as it has been since before men ever went on it in boats, it’s the boats that have changed." - Ernest Hemingway 2011 Annual Report 163rd Edition Dear Governor and Members of the New Jersey Legislature, With a new year came new challenges for the New Jersey Maritime Pilot and Docking Pilot Commission. Dredg- ing of the main channels has created situations in which aids to navigation have been relocated, channels are nar- rower and the pilots jobs have become more difficult. The Commission made amendments to its existing regula- tions to ensure that state licensed pilots have the proper training and expertise to concur these challenges. Pilots are now required to complete a requisite number of trips on the routes for which they are licensed to ensure they remain conversant with the constant changes of the channels. We are scheduled to begin a new slate of interviews for the Maritime Pilot Apprentice Training Program. This process requires the designated Commissioner to devote a minimum of ten, eight-hour days to the evaluation and interviewing process used to select qualified candidates. Our Occurrence Investigation Committee investigated a total of twenty-eight incidents this year. Major accidents require over 150 hours of a Commissioners time to gather information, review track, review and transcribe VDRs and prepare reports for the Commission to review. The movement of buoys, the dredging of the channels and unaccommodating weather conditions has resulted in three such incidents in 2011. The first female Full Branch Maritime Pilot was sworn in at the Commissions February 15, 2011 meeting.

What would the Commission do with a million dollars? Even at today's prices there is quite a bit we could do. We could buy 15 new vehicles, 20 new boats, replace a dozen The motors, and reimburse deputies for their boating safety patrol work and have money left over. We could present a hundred boating safety education classes, print the Boating Million Handbook, provide grants to schools to offer boating safety programs to their students, produce this magazine and still have money left over. In short, we could do many of Dollar the things the boaters of Pennsylvania have come to expect and need. Question But Pennsylvania is on the verge of losing nearly a million dollars in federal funding unless we do something about it. As many of you know,the Commission receives funding each year from the Aquatic Resource Trust Fund. This federal program is funded with revenues generated from taxes boaters and anglers pay on fishing tackle and gear, ex- cise taxes on boat motors and imported boats, and the tax imposed on the fuel used in boats. All together about $340 million is generated for this fund each year, some $200 million of which comes from motorboat fuel taxes.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications CARL McINTIRE AND HIS CRUSADE AGAINST THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE A Dissertation in Mass Communications by Patrick Farabaugh © 2010 Patrick Farabaugh Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2010 The dissertation of Patrick Farabaugh was reviewed and approved by the following: Russell Frank Associate Professor of Communications Dissertation Adviser Chair of Committee Errol Henderson Associate Professor of Political Science Patrick Parsons Associate Professor of Communications Ford Risley Associate Professor of Communications Head of Department of Journalism John Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and Research *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the role that fundamentalist radio commentator Carl McIntire and his station, WXUR, played in the demise of the Fairness Doctrine. McIntire’s “crusade” against the Federal Communications Commission and the Fairness Doctrine brought national attention to the doctrine. This attention influenced the FCC, and in 1987, the Commission repealed this regulatory policy. WXUR is the only radio or television station in American history to be denied license renewal by the FCC as a direct result of Fairness Doctrine violations. This dissertation argues that McIntire and WXUR are underappreciated factors that contributed to the demise of the doctrine. Introduced in 1959 when Congress amended the 1934 Communications Act, the doctrine required radio and television stations to meet two requirements: (1) devote a reasonable percentage of broadcast time to discussions of issues of public importance within the community the licensee served, and (2) design and provide programs so that the public had a reasonable opportunity to hear different and opposing views and arguments on the public issues of interest within that community.
