We had paid off the building debt and were reaccredited. BOARD OF HEALTH We were planning for a Gala 100th Year Celebration honoring 100 years of public health and preparing to increase the fund balance for events such as a President pandemic. The completion of our sewer project meant our plumbing problems Roberta DePompei, PhD would soon be over. We were excited to look closely at our long-term financial (Stow) stability and our grant/general revenue ratio. With our debt resolved, this President Pro Tempore was the year we were going to streamline programs and address areas of M.

  • ENGINEERING STATEMENT This Engineering Statement Is Prepared
    ENGINEERING STATEMENT This engineering statement is prepared on behalf of Media-Com Television, Inc., licensee of Low Power TV Station WAOH-LP - Akron, Ohio, in support of comments in MM Docket 87-268, the DTV allotment proceeding. WAOH-LP operates on Channel 29 with a maximum peak visual effective radiated power of 60.6 kilowatts utilizing a direc- tional antenna. The draft table of DTV allotments contained in the Sixth Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in MM Docket 87-268 proposes to allot Channel 29 to Youngstown, Ohio, as a DTV allotment for use by WKBN-TV, whose present NTSC operation is on Channel 27. The WAOH-LP transmitter site lies 21.3 kilometers inside the predicted 43.8 dBu noise limited contour for the proposed DTV operation of WKBN- TV on Channel 29. Thus, it is obvious that continued operation by WAOH-LP on Chan- nel 29 would cause interference to the DTV operation of WKBN-TV proposed in this draft table, since it is impossible to provide the required protection to a cochannel facil- ity, either DTV or NTSC, from a transmitter site located within its protected contour. The WAOH-LP transmitter site also lies within the predicted noise limited contours of the DTV facilities proposed in this draft table for three other stations for which DTV channels have been proposed which could possibly receive interference from the pres- ent operation of WAOH-LP: WQHS-TV Cleveland,OH Channel 28 WBNX-TV Akron,OH Channel 31 WFMJ-TV Youngstown,OH Channel 36 Based upon the DTV system performance capabilities outlined in Appendix A of this Sixth Further Notice, however, it appears extremely unlikely that the present operation of WAOH-LP would result in actual interference to the DTV operations proposed in this ---- CARL E.

    Published Monday, April 30, 2001, in the Akron Beacon Journal. http://www.ohio.com/bj/arts_and_living/docs/025177.htm On the air Akron's first radio station crackled to life in 1922 BY MARK J. PRICE , Beacon Journal staff writer Oh, WOE was Akron. When the city's first licensed radio station went on the air in April 1922, the joys of ``wireless telephony'' reverberated throughout the community. Yet the important event became just a footnote in local history books -- if mentioned at all. Perhaps it's because the station had such a short life span. Or perhaps it's because the city's biggest newspaper chose to ignore the station entirely. The Akron Beacon Journal maintained radio silence when the oddly named WOE crackled to life. The newspaper must have considered the broadcaster to be electronic competition. Furthermore, the station was allied with the rival Akron Press, which provided WOE's news bulletins and baseball scores. Ron Syroid of Akron has been piecing together WOE's lost history while doing some research for former Cleveland WMMS program director Donna Halper, an author, radio marketing consultant and instructor at Emerson College in Boston. What little we know of WOE can be found on microfilm reels containing Akron Press articles. So let's start at the beginning. ``IT'S AKRON WOE'' the Akron Press reported on April 13, 1922. ``Local Radio Station Receives License to Broadcast.'' On April 6, the federal government granted permission to Buckeye Radio Service Co. to operate a station at 569 S. Main St. across from B.F.

    MEDIA INFORMATION Media Information Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton talks to a reporter following a 115-112 overtime win in Detroit on January 9, 2020. Fred Mcleod TV Studio & Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom Media Workroom The Cavaliers organization named the combined television studio and media workroom space at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse the “Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom” on September 18, 2019 in honor of the team’s beloved 14-year play-by-play television announcer, who passed away unexpectedly on September 9, 2019. Given the indelible impact and legacy of Fred McLeod, and how he touched so many across the media and fan community, as well as the team he loved, the Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom serves as a lasting tribute to someone that was universally admired, respected and appreciated as a fellow media member and willing mentor to a countless number across the industry. Before and after every Cavaliers home game, home and visiting team media members gather in the television studio and media workroom space on the event level of Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse to hear from, and interview, the Cavaliers head coach. The space is also used for many other media events and reporting elements throughout the year by attending media covering games and events for newspapers, magazines, television, radio, websites and other digital platforms, as they write and file their respective stories and coverage inside the walls of this important area. A Strongsville, Ohio native, Fred served as the television voice of the Cavs since joining the team and FOX Sports Ohio in 2006.
