Mother’s Day may be past, but moms are still incredibly important when it comes to radio. Is radio still incredibly important to them? In 2021, American mothers are more connected to the internet than ever, consuming more audio online but listening to radio less, says a new study. According to Moms and Media 2021, an Infinite Dial report released last week by The Research Moms of Edison Research, 89 percent of U.S. mothers own a smartphone and 46 percent own smart speakers, a 39 percent increase from 2020. “More than ever, we in radio have to lean in to this group and find out how to keep and grow their loyalty,” says John Shomby, owner/CEO of Country’s Radio Coach Inc. “They’ve been introduced to more avenues of entertainment [TikTok, for example], and the industry must find a way to get and stay in the middle of that.

The music guide is the work of many people. Shane Hill and Dawayne Melancon corrected and inserted several songs. Kyle Gittins revised the list; Matt Wilson and Arno Hautala provided several corrections. It is close to complete but there are still a few blank spots. Used with permission.

Everybody is Talking About the Good Ole Days: RZA on the Soul of Music by Ericka Blount Danois If hip-hop tours, white appropriation, anniversary celebrations, books and hip-hop documentaries aren’t an indication that hip-hop has reached the status of Beatles-style nostalgia and reverence, then releasing a Wu-Tang Clan 20th anniversary reunion album, A BetterTomorrow, is solid proof that the genre has officially arrived. RZA, always the heart of the operation, worked tirelessly to round up the troops and dissolve beefs for the reunion album that dropped Dec. 2, 2014. “I wanted to make a record that pays homage to soul music and hip-hop,” he said about the making of this album. “I went to the past to make something for the future.” RZA came out of his own pockets to fund the album to the tune of half a million dollars. Some of the best in the industry are featured on the album—Rick Rubin, Adrian Younge, David Porter, Kenny Gamble and Rob Cavallo, all had their hands in the pot. Wu-Tang has always done things big and with vision. RZA led the 9-member group to an unprecedented label deal where each member was able to launch solo records. The deal allowed them to become the most revolutionary rap group of the mid-’90s releasing five group and 19 compilation albums totaling over 6 platinum records and over 40 million sold.

Watch it HERE! The song is available on her recently released project, The Love Train EP [Epic Records]—available HERE! Debuted exclusively via SEVENTEEN, the visual showcases a different kind of romance for actress Bailee Madison. Of course, it covers all of the classic tropes with romantic scenes of candlelit dinners, walks in the park, snuggling, and some heavy petting, but her beau and co-star just so happens to be a giant living teddy bear. Mirroring the song’s sugary melody and heartfelt lyrics, the furry clip will undoubtedly make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside… Be on the lookout for more from Meghan Trainor soon. “THE LOVE TRAIN” EP TRACKLISTING 1. “ALL THE WAYS” 2. “MARRY ME” 3. “I’M DOWN” 4. “AFTER YOU” 5. “FOOLISH” 6. “GOOD MORNIN’ (feat.

  • 2018 Program Guide
    Thanking Mayor William Samaras and the Mayor’s Holiday Fest Planning Committee and all the generous sponsors for helping end youth homelessness in our community! from all the Staff and Students at CTI’s YouthBuild of Greater Lowell Program 155 Merrimack Street, Lowell MA 01852 978.459.0551, www.commteam.org #LowellYouthHousing A Message from Mayor Bill Samaras and Karen Frederick, CEO, CTI Youth homelessness is a persistent problem in the City of Lowell. Community Teamwork estimates that there are over 100 young people in Lowell each year who are experiencing homelessness for a variety of reasons including family conflict and abuse, sexual identity, pregnancy, addiction or mental health issues, contact with the juvenile justice system or aging out of foster care. To help combat this issue and to provide support to these young people in our community, Mayor Bill Samaras is continuing the fundraising effort started last year and we hope that you will join with us to help make it a success once again! All proceeds from the event will be donated to Community Teamwork and their efforts as the lead agency for the Merrimack Valley Youth Consortium that works to prevent youth homelessness. This program has been working with teens to help them reunite with their families or find safe affordable housing on their own. In many cases, it is simply a matter of helping a young person with a security deposit or to clear up past debts that can save them from spending years couch surfing, sleeping in their cars or in places not fit for human habitation.

  • Changes in the Arctic: Background and Issues for Congress
    Changes in the Arctic: Background and Issues for Congress Updated May 17, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R41153 Changes in the Arctic: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The diminishment of Arctic sea ice has led to increased human activities in the Arctic, and has heightened interest in, and concerns about, the region’s future. The United States, by virtue of Alaska, is an Arctic country and has substantial interests in the region. The seven other Arctic states are Canada, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark (by virtue of Greenland), and Russia. The Arctic Research and Policy Act (ARPA) of 1984 (Title I of P.L. 98-373 of July 31, 1984) “provide[s] for a comprehensive national policy dealing with national research needs and objectives in the Arctic.” The National Science Foundation (NSF) is the lead federal agency for implementing Arctic research policy. The Arctic Council, created in 1996, is the leading international forum for addressing issues relating to the Arctic. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) sets forth a comprehensive regime of law and order in the world’s oceans, including the Arctic Ocean. The United States is not a party to UNCLOS. Record low extents of Arctic sea ice over the past decade have focused scientific and policy attention on links to global climate change and projected ice-free seasons in the Arctic within decades. These changes have potential consequences for weather in the United States, access to mineral and biological resources in the Arctic, the economies and cultures of peoples in the region, and national security.
