Academic literature on the topic 'Hour of Charm (Radio program)'

AbstractThis paper is about the television representation of aging and the ensuing social discourse. We analysed the content of 756 hours of television (3 weeks from 2 television networks: Société Radio-Canada and TVA in March 1992). We found that television discourse in different types of programs (information, talkshows, fiction, advertising) uses many strategies that deny the aging process and, in doing so, reassure the public about aging. Television also talks about the exclusion of the elderly in our society. But, at the same time, it must charm these potential consumers. Old people watching several hours of television daily know that they are excluded from society, except as consumers.

AbstractThe U.S. Naval Observatory Navnet program monitors changes in the rotation of the Earth on a regular basis using radio interferometric observations acquired with telescopes in Alaska, Hawaii, Florida, West Virginia and, in the past, Maryland; other radio telescopes have also participated occasionally. These observations have been used to derive a radio interferometric celestial reference system, Navy 1990-5, using two years of dual frequency measurements from 24-hour-duration observing sessions. A total of 84 extragalactic radio sources, mostly quasars, have been observed by the Navnet program to date, of which 70 currently have source position formal errors of one milli second of arc or less. The root mean square of the difference between source position estimates from the Navnet data and an independently derived catalog using completely different data is less than one milli second of arc in both right ascension and declination after the adjustment of an arbitrary rotational offset between the two celestial reference frames.

Radio content is central to the formation of the broadcast programming grid. News releases, depending on the format of the radio station, are broadcast regularly: every 15 minutes, every half hour, every hour. And also the format of the media affects the specifics of the compilation and layout of the news block. The functional features of news broadcasting of information radio stations are, first of all, the “depth” of news feed with the possibility of a detailed description of current events, inclusion of expert comments and ratings in the issue. In turn, for entertainment radio stations, a certain “narrowness” of information broadcasting is inherent, which should correlate with the format of the media and the age of its target audience. In order to indicate the information agenda on entertainment radio stations, the author analyzes it using the popular “Radio Dacha” as an example. The purpose of this study is to identify the functional features and characteristics of the news releases broadcast on “Radio Dacha”. To conduct the study, the method of included observation and content analysis of news releases on radio stations from April 2011 to December 2019 were used. The study showed that it is the format of the radio station that plays a key role in the formation of news releases. The layout is also affected by the target audience and program policy of the radio station. Listeners are told about the pragmatic but exciting side of life. The news is broadcast on the main agenda in Russia and the world in a short but capacious format that echoes the rhetoric of the ruling political party. Based on what, we can draw the following conclusion: there is informational content on “Radio Dacha”, but news release is rather an actual infotainment program without a “depth” of information material.

Although horticulture lends itself to videotaped instruction, I effectively used audiotaped “how to” pieces recorded via a television camera to enhance the educational impact of a live, call-in radio program. This monthly program (SCETV-Radio [91.3 WLTR FM]), which had an audience of 14,000 listeners in South Carolina and parts of North Carolina and Georgia, allowed me to educate listeners about horticulture and to respond to their gardening questions. In each hour-long program I included a 3- to 4-minute in-the-field segment of a specific horticultural practice, such as plant selection, soil preparation, planting, or pruning. In the absence of visuals, I relied on descriptive dialogue and in-the-field sounds to enhance the presentation, thereby enabling listeners to visualize the activity. A broadcast quality beta-cam television camera used to videotape horticultural pieces for television broadcasts (Extension videotapes, C.U.E. Magazine, and Making It Grow!) doubled as a recorder for radio. Using the television camera for video- and audiotaping maximized personnel time and equipment, in addition to improving the quality and content of the radio program.

This article is the result of the execution of the Cultural Extension project entitled "The economic hour"; carried out by the members of the monovalent group "Elinor Ostrom" of the Professional School of Economics (EPE) of the Faculty of Business Sciences (FCE) of the National University of Huancavelica (UNH) in 2019. The main objective of this project was carrying out social service work to the Huancavelica community and provide important information on economic, political, environmental and social situations through a community radio program. A methodological approach of participation-action was used with a specific and contextualized speech model for the elaboration of each radio program during four months. Likewise, the results obtained showed a favourable impact and a high level of satisfaction of the different groups of listeners. Finally, we conclude that the execution of the project involved a successful experience of social rapprochement between the university and society. In this sense, we are sure that this experience will generate greater dialogue and create similar projects for the benefit of our communities.

AbstractThe Ohio State SETI program has been in operation since 1974, making it the longest-running search. The Ohio State radio telescope is equivalent in size to a 175-foot circular dish. The latest and best all-sky meridian-transit survey is about 60% complete, searching in the Water Hole (1.4 to 1.7 GHz). Signals detected are automatically examined at greater resolution and then tracked for up to 1 hour. A dual-beam pattern-matching system is used for real-time signal detection and RFI rejection. A new 4 million channel receiver built at UC Berkeley is now being installed. A simultaneous broadband continuum survey at 1415 MHz is in progress, searching for natural radio sources that have changed since the previous OSU continuum survey was made 20 years ago. A new radio telescope called Argus is being designed that will look in all directions simultaneously, allow usage by everyone simultaneously, and have no moving or machined parts. It is a large timed array which is based on computers rather than steel. All possible beams are formed all the time, so there is no scanning or need to «point» the telescope. This approach has many advantages over dish-type telescopes, such as RFI rejection and retroactive observations. Ohio State University has decided to abandon its radio telescope at the end of 1997 and allow it to be torn down by land developers.

AbstractAmid nationwide discussion on the importance of accident prevention and safety education, Tin Pan Alley songwriters Irving Caesar and Gerald Marks wrote and advertised Sing a Song of Safety (1937), a book of songs that taught children domestic, playtime, and traffic safety lessons, illustrated by Rose O'Neill. Caesar secured a recurring guest segment to perform the songs on the variety program The Royal Gelatin Hour in 1938. Focusing on Caesar's segments, this article examines the role of children's music on the radio in the 1930s. Placing these songs in their historical context, I show how they both portray and challenge citizenship and community roles with regard to age, gender, and race. After unpacking the context of The Royal Gelatin Hour and the relationship between protection and innocence in safety education, I describe the portrayal of parenting in the segments. Taking one of Caesar's segments as a case study, I examine boyhood and race in the program's adaption of the safety patrol. By investigating the role of children and the construction of childhood in these initiatives, this paper addresses the relationship between children and media and early uses of media as a surrogate for parenting. It examines the use of popular culture in public safety efforts, the synergy of and tensions between service and profit, and the use of music to convey societal duties in everyday life as they shift throughout the life course.

Abstract On a rocket, control requires monitoring to determine its position and attitude. Rocket stance includes roll, pitch, and yaw angles. Monitoring can be done manually without the help of tools while the object’s position is still within reach. It is difficult to carry out monitoring when the object is moving far and beyond the reach of the operator. This observation requires a monitoring system to monitor the object further. This research applies a telemetry system to a target tracking rocket. The measurement results from the IMU and GPS sensors on the rocket body will be processed by the ATMega 2560 microcontroller and sent via a 2.4 GHz RF signal. to Ground Control Station. The rocket telemetry data that has been sent to the GCS can be viewed by the operator through the GUI system in a computer program using the C# language in Visual Studio. Tests on latitude and longitude are carried out by tracking the trajectory of objects while testing for roll, pitch, and yaw angles is carried out by placing objects according to the reference angle. The results of the position obtained the values of altitude, latitude, and longitude of 0.5364 m, 0.000012°, and 0.000023°, respectively. An attitude tests for roll position, pitch, and compass heading have values of 0.35°, 0.07, and 2.90°, respectively. The telemetry data transmission distance test is still well-received at a distance of 200 with a test speed of 70 KM/hour.

Your audience is educated twenty-somethings who may be somewhat familiar with American literature but don’t know much about the Beat Generation. Your task is to explain how you would want to cover this topic. Write on each of the following sections....

Abstract There never has been a personality as dominant in the industry as Arthur Godfrey was in the 1950s and ‘60s. He had two TV shows in the top ten as well as a two-hour weekday program carried on both radio and television. Gene once received an opportunity to fly to Buffalo with Godfrey, an expert pilot who flew his own plane everywhere. On the way back, after Godfrey had finished charming the local citizens, Gene noticed a pat­ tern in the radio conversation as they flew in and out of various flight control sectors. It went like this: “Rochester, this is Mike One at five thousand feet.” “Right, Mike One, you’re clear.” “Thanks Rochester.” “Good night, Mister Godfrey.” Every single air traffic controller knew that Mike One was Arthur Godfrey. Gene asked him how this could be. “Every Christmas,” he said, “I send out thousands of grease pencils to the controllers-that’s how they mark their radar scopes-with a note of appreciation signed ‘From you friend, Arthur Godfrey.’” It was a perfect illustration of Godfrey the performer and Godfrey the salesman, the one interchangeable with the other.

Radio-frequency (RF) ablation is one of the most widely used methods for the treatment of hepatic malignancies. A finite element method (FEM) analysis was employed to determine the thermal dose delivered to the tumor/tissue region. We simulated heating within a RF probe implanted in generic tumor surrounded by healthy tissue using ANSYS. The 3-D model consists of a tumor / tissue region into which the RF probe is embedded inside the tumor. One-quarter symmetry was then invoked. The blood flow was modeled using Penne’s bio-heat transfer equation with differing perfusion rates between the healthy tissue and tumor volume based on literature values. The resulting temperature distribution throughout the region was determined over time. A program was written in Visual Basic to extract the temperature distribution data in the tumor/tissue region and calculate the thermal dose throughout the region. This was done by using a time–temperature Arrhenius relationship for chemical and physical rate process. Tissue necrosis is assumed complete when a thermal dose of one hour has been achieved at 43 °C. In the present study, the geometry of the electrode had a significant effect on the size of the volume of necrosis. It was found that the lower portion of the tumor did not receive the specified thermal dose relative to the upper portion of the tumor in single setting during the RF ablation therapy. This might be due to the Ni-Ti electrode, which protruded only from the top surface of the trocar. The effectiveness of the existing probe can be improved by having one more set of electrodes protruding out from the lower curved surface of the trocar. It was found that the modified probe significantly improved heating in the lower portion of tumor/tissue area, providing more symmetry between the upper and lower portion.

Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) are an integral part of the ecological and cultural fabric of northwest Alaska. Western Arctic Herd (WAH) caribou roam over this entire region, including all 5 Arctic Network (ARCN) Inventory and Monitoring Program?s National Park units. Conservation of healthy caribou populations is specifically mentioned within the enabling legislation (Alaska National Interested Lands Conservation Act or ANILCA) for 3 of these park units and is of importance to subsistence hunters. Caribou are, by far, the most abundant large mammal in northwest Alaska and are famous for their long-distance migrations and large population oscillations. For these reasons, the ARCN parks chose WAH caribou as a Vital Sign for long-term monitoring. This report documents the monitoring results of this Vital Sign during its 14th year (September 2022?August 2023) of implementation. Results from the previous years of monitoring are also included for ease of comparison. Periodic syntheses of these data will be performed and reported on as appropriate. National Park Service (NPS) monitoring of the WAH is done in conjunction and cooperation with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG). Thanks to a 2015 data sharing agreement, the report includes data funded by the ADFG dating back to September 2013. That particular year was chosen as it represents when the ADFG started deploying a substantial number of GPS collars on an 8-hour relocation schedule. Monitoring of the herd relies heavily on the use of Global Positioning System (GPS) radio telemetry collars that are capable of transmitting location data to a satellite. Given the extremely remote area that the WAH inhabits, this system provides the most efficient and accurate means to track individual caribou. These data are utilized to monitor the timing and location of migrations, as well as seasonal distributions of WAH caribou. Monitoring movement and the phenology of movement is perhaps the simplest means to track the influences of climate change, natural perturbations, development, and other potential impacts on a species?an analysis of which is outside the scope of this current report. This report also documents the NPS commitment and involvement with the WAH Working Group. The group is composed of important stakeholders including representatives for rural villages, sport hunters, conservationists, hunting guides, hunting transporters, and reindeer herders. In addition, all the agencies charged with managing the WAH, including the ADFG, NPS, US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and Bureau of Land Management (BLM), serve as advisors to the group. Information gathered by the Caribou Vital Sign monitoring program are intended to supplement and complement existing data streams gathered by the other cooperating agencies and will be important in future management decisions.
