2009 Assessment of the Status of Diversity Education in Journalism and Mass Communication Programs
Biswas, Masudul, Izard, Ralph, Journalism & Mass Communication Educator
This article assesses the status of diversity education in 2008-2009 in both accredited and non-accredited journalism and mass communication programs in U.S. colleges and universities. Using survey responses from 105 academic programs, findings support earlier studies that found the number of special courses on media diversity is increasing steadily. Findings also identify a preference for integrating diversity content across the curriculum. Among factors pushing these improvements are accreditation standards and an increasing multicultural environment.
It is clear that diversity is being given higher priority in journalism/mass communication education and in the accrediting process of academic programs as an imperative for attaining educational and professional excellence. Diversity often is identified as essential for a high-quality educational curriculum that equips students, the future practitioners, with the spirit of inclusivity to achieve "complete representation of the communities they serve."1
Earlier studies recognized a growing trend of special courses on diversity in JMC programs.2 This is especially significant as scholars argue that attaining the diversity standard in JMC education depends not only on increasing representation of minority students and faculty but also on expanding efforts toward achieving multicultural or diversity-oriented curricula.3
Discussions about the importance of formulating diversity-oriented curricula gained major impetus in the early 1990s. Researchers then asked whether JMC programs should offer only separate or special courses on diversity or whether they should infuse diversity issues throughout the curriculum.4 Many believe integration of diversity across curriculum is important, as confining diversity-related issues to separate courses can isolate the issue of diversity in JMC education.
By diversity in media education, this study refers to any teaching or research about race, ethnicity, gender, physical ability, sexual orientation, age, social class, or multiculturalism in general, either in contemporary or historical contexts of mass communication and offered at both undergraduate and graduate levels. Also, diversity is referred to as a tool of learning, which should preferably be included across the curriculum.
In this context, this study analyzes JMC program curricula with two purposes. First, it seeks information about the status of media diversity education in both accredited and non-accredited JMC programs at U.S. universities during 2008-2009. In examining the state of diversity education in JMC programs, this study deals with the content of diversity-related courses, levels, and types of such offerings, and enrollment averages.
Second, the study seeks to develop an understanding about preferred teaching approaches, which mainly refer to media educators' preferred design of curricula in teaching diversity, e.g., offering separate courses on diversity, infusing diversity content across the curricula, or both. In support of this understanding, information also was sought on why media diversity scholars and programs see diversityoriented curricula as important.
Diversity and Journalism/ Mass Communication Education
Accreditation standards of the Accrediting Council on Education in Journalism and Mass Communications (ACEJMC), adopted in 2003, give more priority to "diversity and inclusiveness" in the accrediting process.5 The first two indicators of Standard 3 require a program to have a written diversity plan "for achieving an inclusive curriculum" apart from recruitment of a diverse faculty and student population and to have a curriculum - including journalism, media studies, political communication, public relations, advertising, and visual communication - that "fosters understanding of issues and perspectives that are inclusive in terms of gender, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation."6
Ruggles points out that, as far back as 1947, the Hutchins Commission report gave some priority to the need to diversify journalism education. …

Press release from Marketwire
Enbridge Launches Bakken Expansion Program Binding Open Season
Thursday, August 26, 2010
Enbridge Launches Bakken Expansion Program Binding Open Season09:15 EDT Thursday, August 26, 2010HOUSTON, TEXAS & CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Aug. 26, 2010) - Enbridge Energy Partners L.P. (NYSE:EEP) ("EEP") and Enbridge Income Fund (TSX:ENF.UN) ("ENF"), affiliates of Enbridge Inc. (collectively "Enbridge") today launched a binding open season to solicit additional shipper interest in the Bakken Expansion Program, a series of projects to expand crude oil pipeline capacity in North Dakota and Saskatchewan. These proposed projects, will provide incremental capacity to meet the crude oil transportation needs of Williston Basin producers."The Bakken and Three Forks formations in the Williston Basin are expected to be significant long-term sources of crude oil production growth," said Stephen J. Wuori, Executive Vice President, Liquids Pipelines, Enbridge Inc. "The Enbridge system provides a low cost solution for shippers to access prime U.S. markets including the Great Lakes region of the Upper Midwest and the Midcontinent refinery markets connected to Cushing, Oklahoma. Our ability to provide segregated service also ensures that producers maximize the netback from their high quality, light sweet Bakken crude oil production. Finally, the integration of the Bakken Expansion Program with the Enbridge mainline will provide long-term guaranteed access to prime markets in the United States." Enbridge's proposed Bakken Expansion Program includes several separate yet complementary projects. When completed, this program will provide another 145,000 barrels per day (bpd) of incremental pipeline capacity from new receipt locations in the Bakken and Three Forks formations in North Dakota to interconnections with other existing Enbridge systems serving a broad number of refineries in North America. Enbridge has sufficient binding commitments to proceed with the Beaver Lodge Loop Project and the Enbridge Bakken Pipeline Projects (U.S. and Canada). Through the open season, shippers will have the opportunity to secure firm capacity on these two projects as well as commit to capacity on the SORTI and Dunn Projects. Details on the projects are available in the attached backgrounder and at www.enbridge.com.The binding Open Season begins today, August 26, 2010, and closes at 5 p.m. MT on October 29, 2010.

There is a sense of calmness and clarity about David Binks that is very reassuring in a boat builder.
David Binks at Brighton Jetty
An enduring quality of modesty belies a lifetime of achievement for the quietly spoken artisan whose career began among boat builders, ship's chandlers, sailmakers and provisioners of Port Adelaide in the early 1950s. Trusted nameplates like William Russell, Searles, McFarlanes, Porters and Clausen swung above the ebb and flow.
As a boy, David regularly fished off Brighton in a carvel-built timber cutter powered by a single cylinder Chapman Pup motor.
From the age of 10 when he fished with family friend Ambrose Hinton, David developed a passion for boats that soon saw him sailing Cadet Dinghies at the Brighton and Seacliff Yacht Club in a group that included another budding sailor called Jim Hardy.
Schooling at St Peter's College equipped David with the ability to make a number of career choices. But the call of the sea and a love of working with his hands proved too hard to resist, and he chose an apprenticeship with legendary Port Adelaide boatbuilder J. P. Clausen & Sons, starting at the age of 17.
In the Clausen shed, David worked with traditionalists shaping jarrah keels with an adze, fitting planks of sugar pine, Pacific maple and teak, steam bending ribs of kauri, making decks of plywood and caulking hulls with
The young man quickly learnt the trusted old ways of working with wood. But it was the emerging wonders of fibreglass that propelled David into a new era of boat design and building, and a business that made him a household name among discerning sailors around the world.
In the latter stages of his apprenticeship with J. P. Clausen & Sons, his boss asked David to make the plug of a 15ft clinker fishing boat to be constructed from the new material of fibreglass that had been developed in the United States.
The Lightburn company in Adelaide used the plug as a mould to produce many fibreglass shells that were returned to J. P. Clausen & Sons to be fitted with wooden decks and thwarts.
It was the beginning of a new era.
From the outset, the young boat builder was fascinated with the possibilities of fibreglass and how he could apply his emerging skills in his own business. In 1959, he formed Binks Yacht Constructions initially building wooden speedboats for skiing and racing enthusiasts on the Port River.
In 1960, prominent businessman and yachtsman John Bagshaw encouraged a small group of accomplished Adelaide sailors to try their hands in 505 class racing yachts, a design new to Australia.
David made some of the 505s in moulded plywood and among those who were quickly converted to the potential of these yachts were Jim (later Sir James) Hardy and Fred Neill, both of whom later became famous at the helms of slick keel boats in the Admiral's Cup and America's Cup.
David experimented with design and construction of the 505s eventually mastering how to build the yachts in fibreglass – light enough to compete with wood and rigid enough to achieve winning speed in the water.
Again, David was at the forefront of change producing the first fibreglass yacht build in Australia and then perfecting a system of sandwiching a lightweight foam core between two layers of fibreglass, a concept that was embraced by boat builders around the world.
In 1963, one of the Binks fibreglass yachts competed in the World 505 Championships off Long Island Sound in New York. Sailed by Brian Price, the Aussie entry with revolutionary layout and fittings blitzed the field to take out the honours.
The following year, another Binks 505 took out the World Championships off Cork in Ireland. The international yachting community was amazed at the achievement and fully awakened about what was happening in a relatively small boatyard in suburban Adelaide.
As a result, David was awarded a Churchill Fellowship to study boat building overseas – an honour that took him to the United States where he met two people who had a huge impact on his life.
One of those people was Connecticut boat builder Les Goodwin, who pioneered fibreglass boat construction in that country. The second was his daughter, Pamela, who was to become David's wife and the mother of their two daughters.
Balancing the strength and weight advantages of fibreglass hulls with the beauty of traditional timber features, Binks Yacht Constructions forged an enviable record producing boats in many classes including Flying Dutchman, Fireball, OK Dinghy, Yachting World Cadet, Star and Gwen 12. David also introduced two new international classes to Australia – the 420 and 470.
In 1972, a fire destroyed the Binks factory at Somerton Park, including the precious moulds of boats, many of which had filled export orders. As a result, David turned his hand to designing and building larger yachts, later developing a long association with legendary New Zealand designer Bruce Farr.
In 2008, David retired but retained a half share of the business he developed. Over the years, he had produced thousands of off-the-beach yachts and around 300 deep keel yachts.
His contribution to the industry has been enormous, including 40 continuous years as a Board Member of the Boating Industry Association of SA. He also served many years as a technical advisor to the Australian Marine Industry developing industry standards for pleasure craft.
'Above all, I feel incredibly lucky to have worked in the transition from timber to fibreglass,' David said.
And, with so much experience and so many achievements to his name, are there some words to define what he looks for it a boat?
'It has to be graceful,' he explained. 'And there has to be a sense of individuality in design. Ultimately, you can have a wonderfully designed and built boat, but to make it successful requires seamanship, an ability to understand the sea and its moods.'

Milwaukee County Executive Chris Abele will hold two public hearings on the 2014 budget next week.
Abele is "crafting the budget and welcomes input," his spokesman, Brendan Conway, said in a statement released on Saturday.
The first hearing will be from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on Tuesday at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center, 1531 W. Vliet St.
The second will be held Wednesday from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the Greendale Safety Center, 5911 W. Grange Ave.
The Journal Sentinel reported earlier this week that Abele had tentatively selected a Dallas-based company to take over the Milwaukee County transit system from Milwaukee Transport Inc., a non-profit entity created to run the system when the county acquired it 38 years ago.
In that story, Conway was asked if Abele planned to cut routes or raise fares. He replied that Abele had not done so in the past two years.

Living in the city, even in a limited space, doesn't have to mean giving up a garden. Just ask Lisa Brennan and Sean Gere.
In April, the duo launched Sprout, a store placing emphasis on gardening in urban settings by using creative growing methods such as living walls and terrariums.
"The big thing that makes it different is that we're really focusing on small space gardening," said Brennan.
The store is located inside of Four Star Video Haven at 449 State Street, which Brennan has owned for 11 years. She began thinking about the business after reading on natural history, ecology, alternative economics, and urban gardening. The many unused balconies on State Street suitable for growing plants inspired her to act.
"I would just love to see everything blooming and growing food," she said.
Jay Gavin, a kindergarten student at Sandburg Elementary, stood atop the pile of soil that would soon fill six freshly constructed wooden frames. The topsoil blackened his bare feet and dirt smudges outlined the corners of his smile.
Jay was part of a group of students, staff, and parents of Sandburg Elementary School who celebrated Earth Day by tripling the number of vegetable gardens in their schoolyard.
The city of Madison said Monday it has lifted the ban on outdoor burning.
The burn ban was issued last week because there was a high risk of brush fires starting due to the weather conditions.
The Madison Fire Department said the recent rainfall minimizes concern for outdoor burning in the city of Madison -- however the high winds should temporarily limit burning.
Given the rainfall, the city of Madison has lifted the ban, according to Bernadette Galvez of the Madison Fire Department.
Approved outdoor fireplaces and fire pits may now be used. Prairie and/or natural lawn burns, approved by permits, may also be conducted.
More information about outdoor and open burning in Madison can be found at http://www.cityofmadison.com/fire/documents/OutdoorandOpenBurningGuide.pdf.
The Streets Division will begin brush collection on Monday, April 2nd. Again this year there will be no set schedule for brush collection. Our crews will be using the same collection rotation we use for leaf collection.Streets Division crews will begin collecting brush in Monday's refuse collection districts. After completing collection in Monday's area, crews will move into the Tuesday districts, then Wednesday's districts, followed by the Thursday and then Friday refuse districts. Upon completion of Friday's refuse district, crews will begin the cycle again in Monday's district. The time it takes us to complete a round of collection will vary according to workload and equipment availability. Crews estimated that it will take 3 to 5 weeks per round this year.
Brush collection will continue until mid October. At that time, we will be diverting all of our crews to fall leave collection.
Brush Collection Guidelines
The undergraduate interior design program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Human Ecology has been ranked No. 10 out of 200 similar U.S. programs by Design Intelligence, a bi-monthly report published by the Design Futures Council.
The top 10 list included 15 institutions, with five tied with UW-Madison at No. 10.
Many of the nation's leading interior design institutions are at private, not public, institutions, making the UW-Madison's achievement remarkable, according to Wei Dong, Design Studies Department chair. The University of Cincinnati ranked first, followed by New York's Pratt Institute and the Savannah College of Art and Design.
The city of Madison will be expanding the list of materials that it will accept in its curbside recycling program beginning Jan. 1. The changes are possible because of a new recycling processing contract the city has signed with Pellitteri Waste Systems of Madison."We are very excited about our new recycling contract," Madison recycling coordinator George Dreckmann said in a news release. "In addition to expanding the list of materials that Madison residents can put in their green recycling carts, we were able to negotiate a lower fee for sorting and selling our material. This lower fee will save taxpayers $173,470 per year."Madison residents will now be able to add the following material to their recycling carts;
The city portion of taxes on an average Madison home is increasing 3.7 percent. The total levy increase on the average home is 2.71 percent this year compared to nearly 6 percent in 2010.

(The following is a reformatted version of a press release issued by The California Public Utilities Commission and received via e-mail. The release was confirmed by the sender.) CPUC DECISION ON SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON RATE CASE AIMED AT PROVIDING SAFE AND RELIABLE SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO, November 29, 2012 -- The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) today issued a decision in Southern California Edison's (SCE) General Rate Case, allowing SCE to recover from ratepayers an increase of 5.04 percent over present rates, representing the reasonable costs of providing safe and reliable electrical service to customers in 2012. SCE had requested a 16.6 percent increase over current rates. The Decision is the result of the CPUC's detailed review of the future operations and service requirements of SCE. The CPUC holds safety, reliability, and just and reasonable rates for customers as the basis of its review. In order to keep rates just and reasonable, the Decision imposes belt tightening on SCE, including more efforts at cost-effectiveness, slower implementation of some activities, and disallowance of non‑ essential costs and projects. The Decision reduces SCE's 2012 company-wide request for Operations and Maintenance expenses by approximately $258 million and reduces SCE's 2010-2012 capital spending request by approximately $756 million. The Decision authorizes $5.671 billion base revenue requirement for 2012 in order to provide SCE with sufficient funding to both assure safe and reliable service and to adapt SCE's system to integrate renewable energy resources and advanced technologies. The revenue is a 5.04 percent increase over the projected revenue requirement at present rate levels of $5.399 billion, and a 9.9 percent reduction from the 2012 revenue requirement requested by SCE of $6.294 billion. "This decision ensures that SCE is able to invest in smart energy systems, renewables, and safety and reliability while its ratepayers are protected under the CPUC's prudent review. The decision strikes a fine balance in attaining this common goal between the utility and its ratepayers," said Commissioner Timothy Alan Simon, the lead Commissioner in the proceeding. Said Commissioner Mike Florio, "While today's decision results in a rate increase for SCE's ratepayers, this is a necessary investment in our future. We need to do a more thorough job in monitoring, maintaining, and replacing our aging electricity infrastructure. We also need to modernize and enhance our electricity system to better achieve the state's environmental policy goals. We will be vigilant to ensure that SCE will spend every penny wisely." Added Commissioner Mark J. Ferron, "Today's decision strikes an appropriate balance between providing the necessary funds for forward-looking utility operations while maintaining affordable prices for SCE's customers and keeping a watchful eye on the associated safety concerns." Recognizing the need for SCE to make safety a priority, the Decision authorizes enhanced equipment inspections and new technology to better track the condition and service record of SCE's assets. It also orders an independent assessment of SCE's system utility poles to determine whether current loads meet legal standards, and an independent audit of SCE's spending across key categories of infrastructure repair and replacement included in the Reliability Investment Incentive Mechanism. Regarding SCE's much-criticized response to a 2011 windstorm, in 2013 SCE is required to provide the CPUC with a progress report on various initiatives SCE stated it would undertake to improve its emergency communications and responses to service communities and customers. Further, the Proposed Decision determines that it is in the best interest of ratepayers for 2012 Operations and Maintenance expenses and post-2011 capital expenditures related to the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station to be tracked in a memorandum account for separate review and be subject to refund. For more information on the CPUC, please visit www.cpuc.ca.gov. Media Contact: Terrie Prosper, 415.703.1366, firstname.lastname@example.com (sgp) NY #<278855.14078.3.1.0.0.76>#

Is that Duffy with Pluto and Marie? I'd rather have the "just Duffy" image from the "Et de Pins" logo mark in the first set. I wish that was a real pin because the costume looks very Cape Cod, too.^^ But it's cool that Paris seems to more fully and genuinely embrace Duffy than the US Parks, based on reports here.

Went to Epcot for the 4th. Mouse Gear store didn't have the Sulley outfits but Disney Traders (Duffy Store as we call it) in World Showcase and Let the Memories Begin store on the Boardwalk did. I wouldn't say either had a lot and it didn't appear that they restocked the whole day. Slim pickin's but we have ours now.
The Disney Outlet on Vineland still has Mad Hatter and the winter sweater/cap for $10.99 each.
Hoping they have them at MouseGear when I visit Epcot later this month so I can use the 20% off coupon to get a better deal than my 10% AP discount.
I was at the Magic Kingdom last night 7/5. They had lots of Sulley outfit for Duffy. Only, they are not with the regular Duffy merchandise. You have to go to the wall with all the Monster's University items.
I currently have one in my possession and they are really soft!
Sandrita ; I love the outfit your Duffy is wearing! It's so cute!! ^_^
I still need to get that jacket. It's so cute!
Yeah my BAB wasn't sure if they'd be getting more either. I need to check the BAB in Tampa to see if they have anything left. Probably not but you never know. Sometimes I see things at the Tampa store I don't see in Clearwater (and vice-versa).
I just checked on-line they have the

Turning 50? Congratulations on reaching the half-century mark. Now it's also time to schedule a colonoscopy. A colonoscopy is an important screening method to detect possible colorectal
cancer and colon cancer, and is recommended for all
patients over age 50.
A clean colon is necessary to perform the colonoscopy, so a day or two before the colonoscopy your physician will provide special colonoscopy preparation
liquids you will need to drink. These fluids are quite effective at clearing out the colon,
and you will need to use the restroom frequently, so it is recommended you stay home that day. During colonoscopy preparation, you will be on a clear liquid diet so the colon will be as clear as
The colonoscopy procedure usually only takes about 30 minutes. During the colonoscopy, the patient is placed under anesthesia, and the
gastroenterologist or surgeon uses a colonoscope (a flexible tube with a small video camera on the end) to examine the inside of colon, or large
intestine. The colonoscopy is usually painless.
After the colonoscopy, most patients do not experience many side effects beyond gas or slight abdominal discomfort. Some patients may experience anesthesia after effects, so we recommended arranging to have someone drive you home from the
The colonoscopy results will be given to your physician, who
may recommend possible follow-up tests or dietary guidelines,

CU: Home • A to Z • Campus Map
As the University of Colorado Boulder welcomes new and returning students to campus this summer and fall, campus leaders encourage students to keep safety in mind whether they are new to Boulder or returning for another school year.
Although CU-Boulder is a very safe place, unfortunate things can happen. Make smart choices regarding your personal safety and educate yourself so you can safely enjoy the natural environment of Boulder and the surrounding foothills and mountains.
Architect Charles Klauder, who set the campus aesthetic in the early 1900s with the design of several buildings, once said, "Many an old grad has reflected that students may come and go, classes enter and graduate, but that venerable walls and carved chimney-pieces, picturesque gables and vaulted archways endure forever."
CU-Boulder has made major progress this summer in its compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, specifically in programs for students with visual impairments. In addition to fixing technical problems, the campus will also strengthen the awareness of all members of our campus community about how to access new technologies and create a culture in which everyone benefits by continual improvement of accessibility.
The primary residence hall move-in days for Fall 2014 will be Monday, Aug. 18 and Thursday, Aug. 21. To support Housing and Dining Services new move-in system, staging areas for new residents will be set up in several parking lots across campus. Students will park in these staging areas prior to moving to their "Quick Drop Zones" located at their residence halls for unloading.
In order to accommodate the activity on Aug. 21, parking permit holders in several lots must be temporarily relocated. If your permitted lot will be affected, you will receive a permit holder email with maps detailing alternate parking arrangements.
Looking for leadership skills? Applications for CU GOLD - Gaining Opportunities through Leadership Development - are due Sept. 12.
Sierra Nevada Corporation's (SNC) Space Systems is pleased to announce it is expanding its relationship with the University of Colorado Boulder through the signing of a letter of cooperation with CU-Boulder's BioServe Space Technologies (BioServe). Through the cooperation, SNC and BioServe will jointly explore ways the Dream Chaser® Space Utility Vehicle (SUV) can serve as an orbital platform for scientific experiments in microgravity and space life science research.
Fiske Planetarium is much more than a cool place to explore the universe in high definition picture and sound. It's helping prepare CU-Boulder students for careers in a wide range of professions, and it is allowing faculty across disciplines--not just astrophysics--to create engaging educational experiences for their classes.
Dr. Don Misch, assistant vice chancellor for Health and Wellness, has named Gary Chadwick director of Recreation Services at the University of Colorado Boulder. He will officially transition from his current interim role on Aug. 1, 2014.
Coming up in the CU-Boulder's ATLAS Black Box Theater is square product theatre's production of "SLAB," an adaptation of Denver writer Selah Saterstrom's forthcoming novel. The story is about a woman's life in the American South told through her memories and from the slab of her post-Katrina home.
When the volleyball season begins at the University of Colorado – and it won't be long – the Coors Events Center will become The Court of Three Sisters. Coach Liz Kritza believes having three siblings on the same team might be an NCAA Division I first.
Every gift matters, no matter the size.

Sean Hamilton
|Sean Hamilton
Hamilton while on WKTU in New York City
|Las Vegas, Nevada
|Italian American
|Radio & Television Personality, Actor, Music Producer/Italia3
|Clear Channel Communications, Premiere Radio Networks
Sean "Hollywood" Hamilton is an American radio personality. He is the host of the Weekend Top30 Countdown and the Remix Top40 Countdown heard in over 280 cities in the United States and throughout the world on Premiere Radio Networks. He can also be heard live weekday afternoons on WKTU in New York City. He is one of the most listened to music radio personalities in the country according to PPM Arbitron, published in "Inside Radio" in 2009.[1]
Early life[edit]
Hamilton was born and raised in both Las Vegas and Reno, Nevada. Both his parents were in show business; his father, Al, was the entertainment director for major Nevada hotels and casinos, and also a comedian who performed in those establishments. Hamilton's mother, April Ames, was a singer for Harry James, Sam Donahue, Buddy Rich, and others during the "big band" era. She also made appearances on Johnny Carson and George Gobel television shows. Later, during the 1970s, she performed on the Nevada casino circuit with her own band, April Ames and The Dames.
Hamilton got the nickname "Hollywood" when he was nine years old. Sitting backstage watching his father's Las Vegas show while wearing a suit and bow tie, one of his father's showgirls passed by, stopped, and called him "Little Hollywood."
Broadcasting career[edit]
While still in high school Hamilton landed his first job in commercial radio after gaining recognition from a (illegal) pirate radio station, broadcasting from his home in Reno, Nevada.[2] After weeks of complaints from local commercial radio stations the Federal Communication Commission issued a formal cease and desist. It wasn't until then, that Hamilton's parents even knew of such an operation their son was operating.
In 1990 actor Christian Slater studied the role of playing a DJ for the motion picture Pump Up the Volume under the tutelage of then friend Hamilton. At the time Hamilton was hosting a night shift at KIIS-FM in Los Angeles. Because the film closely resembles the early career of Sean Hamilton there has been much speculation that the film was loosely based on Hamilton's start in broadcasting before he started professionally.
Z100 New York, KIISFM Los Angeles & KBIG/MYFM Los Angeles[edit]
After spending only a year broadcasting in his hometown, Hamilton decided to hit the road hoping to achieve the big time one day. After three years of traveling and working for a couple small market radio stations like KLAV in Las Vegas and KIDD in Monterey, he ended up in a small town in central New Jersey called Long Branch at a station called WWZY Y-107. In 1983 while broadcasting one night, his big break came when a then famous radio executive Scott Shannon was flying commercially over Long Branch and heard Sean on the air. Upon Shannon's arrival at his destination Sean was immediately offered a job to be part of creating and premiering what is now the largest and most influential radio station in the world today, New York's WHTZ/Z100. At just 20 years old and only four years after building his small pirate radio station in Reno, Nevada, he was now on the air at Z100 in New York City. After Z100s premiere on August 2, 1983 with its legendary campaign "Worst to First", the station went #1 in the ratings in just 74 days.[3]
During those four years working in New York he helped launch and introduce such new artists as Madonna, Duran Duran, U2, Cyndi Lauper and Prince, just to name a few. Hamilton remained at Z100 from 1983-1987. In 1987, Hamilton was asked to head out west to join Rick Dees and 102.7 KIIS-FM where he spent a total of seven years on the air. During his seven years at KIISFM he headed up a very popular concert series called "Rad Pack." This was a concert series where many of the biggest music and teen celebrities at the time would come together to raise money for the newly found D.A.R.E. foundation (Drug Abuse Resistance Education). The attention of this series caught the eye of then President George H.W. Bush where Hamilton was asked to join the President for several youth anti-drug appearances.
During the late eighties through the mid-nineties while at KIIS-FM, Hamilton made many other notable high profile appearances such as participating in the Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race Grand Prix of Long Beach and being part of the Los Angeles Air Show where he trained and flew with the United States Blue Angels. Hamilton remained at KIIS-FM from 1987-1994.
In April 2009, Clear Channel hand picked Hamilton to become the new afternoon drive host on KBIG-FM, known as 104.3 MYfm in Los Angeles. He was Clear Channel's only "music" radio personality to have an afternoon show broadcasting simultaneously in both New York and Los Angeles, Monday through Friday. Although Hamilton was live on WKTU on the east coast, his show was prerecorded three hours prior to airing at three PM on the west coast. This method of pre-recording a broadcast shift is called "tracking" and has been much criticized within the industry. In January 2011 Hamilton resigned his west coast "tracking" duties for MYfm because of personal fatigue and time restraints.
In 1979, while working on his first commercial radio station, KCBN in Reno Nevada, Hamilton created the popular radio show called Lovelines. In 1983 shortly after being hired at Z100 in New York Hamilton resurrected the show and called it "Hollywood Hamilton's Midnight Lovelines", which offered medical and relationship advice to listeners, often with the assistance of guests, including actors and members of popular bands.[4] After the show became a huge hit in New York Hamilton signed the rights over to the Westwood One Radio Network for an undisclosed financial amount, stopped hosting it and moved to Los Angeles to work for KIIS-FM. The name was then changed from "Lovelines" to "Loveline" and Hamilton's creation was quickly imitated on radio stations throughout America. KROQ and Dr. Drew Pinksy in Los Angeles gained the most notoriety where MTV Networks noticed it and produced A TV version of "Loveline" that ran on MTV from 1996 to 2000.
Disney's "Hangin' With Hollywood"[edit]
From 1989 to 1992, every Sunday night, Hamilton produced and was the host of a live satellite radio show from Disneyland in Southern California.[5] The four-hour show was called "Hangin' with Hollywood" and featured interviews with music, television and motion picture celebrities on the Tomorrowland main stage. This live radio show quickly became a Disney attraction for tourists who could watch celebrities being interviewed and participate by being "guest DJs", introducing the music on the air. However, because of Disney's strict rules and regulations regarding their image, the show came to an end in the winter of 1992. Hamilton remains an honorary citizen of Disneyland, an accolade that Mickey and friends personally presented to him on his birthday, March 25, 1989.
WKTU New York City[edit]
In 1996, Clear Channel convinced Hamilton to relocate back to New York City to host a show for their WKTU evening slot. Hamilton brought a sidekick/comedian along by the name of Goumba Johnny, their chemistry earned them top ratings consistently for two years. Because of their overwhelming success, in September 2006 Clear Channel decided to promote the duo to WKTU's afternoon drive.
In December 2010, with the departure of sidekick Goumba Johnny, Hamilton started hosting the afternoon drive-time show solo. Since then his show became not only the highest rated afternoon show in the New York metro area but currently also holds the highest rated share for all radio stations in New York. (8.2 share 25-54 demographic, according to the Arbitron PPM/Summer rating system).
In 1996 Hamilton was asked to host the annual Easter Egg Roll at the White House with President Bill Clinton and first Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton in Washington, D.C.
On May 2, 2012 KTU announced that Sean 'Hollywood' Hamilton had signed a new three year deal to extend his contract through 2015. In their press release it stated that Hamilton's show is currently rated the No.1 afternoon show by Arbitron's Portable People Meter (PPM) with adults ages 25–54. It goes on to mention his show features a segment called War of the Roses, weekdays at 5:40 p.m., helping KTU's 5:00 p.m. hour become the most listened to hour in New York City radio.
Hamilton is the host and executive producer of three syndicated radio shows: Hollywood Hamilton's Weekend Top 30, which has both pop and urban versions, and the Remix Top 30, a Friday and Saturday night electronic dance music show that features club deejays remixing the top hits of the week featuring celebrity guests.[6]
On January 28, 2013, Hamilton signed a new deal with Premiere Networks that brings his syndicated countdown shows into the Premiere syndication stable beginning February 1, 2013. In addition, his shows will also be featured on the iHeartRadio platform, which is owned by Premiere's parent company (and Hamilton's employer) Clear Channel Communications[7]
Hamilton has been the spokesman and spokesmodel for companies including Sprint Nextel, Drakkar Cologne, Doritos, M&Ms, Levi Strauss & Co., Pepsi and 5-Hour Energy.[8] On his off time away from the radio industry, Hamilton's production company, Mischief Media Entertainment, has directed and produced television pilots for Telepictures, Warner Bros., Twentieth Century Fox and most recently two half hour pilots for Court TV entitled 29 Minutes & Counting.[9]

The code I'm working with has a shared signal handler that switches on the signal number to handle it appropriately.
I'm adding a custom signal. Something like this
static void signal_handler (int s)
if ( s == SIGTERM ) clean_up () ;
else if ( s == SIGRTMIN+1 ) ; // do nothing
SIGRTMIN and
SIGRTMAX are #defines of function calls which initialize static data (in the implementations I've seen on google code search)
Signal handlers are supposed to be non-reentrant. Does the use of static data in the accessor to
SIGRTMIN and
SIGRTMAX make these macros unsafe to use in a signal handler?

Go into a store and play around the phones on their model stands. Look through the app stores and compare, have a play and see which one you seem to like better.

I might be getting a smart phone soon and I am SUPER indecisive and cant decide which phone I want! I really thought i wanted the S3 but that was only because iphones didnt have 4G, but now that they do I am not sure what I want! Which phone is better? I really like them both but the S3 is kind of big and im not that nerdy so(1) i dont know if i would use ALL of the stuff it can do. Also, it cant send emojis or if it does i think its a special keyboard that can that is weird. Also, im a really big fan of accessories that come with phones and i dont think that the S3 has many (2)But i did find out that both the S3 and iphone 5 have clutch cases so i could put the phone there and have my money and ID attached to it. So, i just dont know what to do! Which one is better???? What should I do?
Posted 21 November 2012 - 21:35
They are pretty much the same performance wise, so it's probably a matter of what OS you like better. Android is a lot more customizable obviously, but iOS has better quality apps (in my opinion). Depends what you care more about.
Though the 5 has a much better screen than the S3, so if you want slightly better quality, go with the 5.

Keeping Your Craft Area Clean When Using Glue
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Phone Book Aid by Denise McCall, Columbus, OH
I take an old phone book and remove the front cover and use it as a rest for my glue gun. Then if the glue drips, it's on the paper. Tear off the top sheet and you have a new clean surface to work with. Works great with other messy projects too like mixing glues, testing your brush for stenciling, etc (you get the idea). It's a great way to recycle an old phone book and to keep your crafting center neat and clean.
Cookie Sheet Aid by Laurie J. Leblanc West Columbia, Texas
I use an old cookie sheet to do a lot of my crafting on. You can rest your glue gun on it and the drips fall on the sheet. The sheet also keeps the gun from falling off. It catches the glitter, cuttings and also holds the craft nicely in place, especially if it is round. It won't fall off! When I am done, I just load up my crafting stuff, put it on the cookie sheet and its all there for me the next time I use it. It's also great for painting and doing Mog Podge. Just lay a piece of paper or newsprint down and when your done, throw away the paper!
Mini Glue Gun Rest by Jeanne Meiler Lancaster, NY
I have a mini glue gun that just did not want to stand up when I set it down on the table. I simply took a small piece of scrap styrofaom (2-3 " square by 1/2' deep) and when I set the gun down, pushed the feet into the styrofoam. No more falling over!
Storing Glue Bottles by Sue Oskam Budd Lake, NJ
Cut the top off a 2-liter soda bottle, and store your glue bottle in it to keep the glue in the tip and ready to go.

I learned a long time ago how to NOT ruin my kitchen table while crafting there. I went to Walmart ( when they carried fabric) and bought the wide clear plastic by the yard. I now get it at the local fabric stores. I can keep it on the table and glue,paint or whatever I want and my table stays nice and neat. You just fold it up when you are through, until you need to craft again. It doesn't cost as much as a new table and you would be surprised at what you can do with some sections when you are through useing it on your table

While in the thick of grieving my father's death, I found my art making process of working intuitively -- without boundaries, patterns or sketches to dictate to me -- both a comfort and an eye opener.
As a mother facing a grim cancer prognosis and a year of treatment, my brain was on constant code red. Until I learned that the answer was not in my head but in my hands.

Gallery: GREEN GUIDE TO PREFAB: The History of the Mobile Home and Its ...
Last month we kicked off our Green Guide to Prefab series with an article exploring the history of prefabricated housing. Now we're back with another article in this series to take a look at mobile homes and their influence on the development of prefabricated housing. Although the words 'mobile home' today often conjure up images of sprawling trailer parks outside cities, these compact homes-on-wheels were, in fact, part of a design revolution that gave way to a low-cost, portable option for single-family home ownership. Read on for the second installment of our Green Guide to Prefab, where former Lindal Cedar Homes CEO, and green design consultant Michael Harris schools us on the history of the mobile home and how it helped shape modern prefabricated housing.

That's a nice analogy. Prefab homes are preferred by lots of people in today's generation. One of the reasons is it does cost lower than the off-site built homes.
Bria Reus August 13, 2012 at 6:31 am
I think there are disadvantages of living in a mobile home. One of these is that you can't establish deep relationships with neighbors since you don't stay in a particular place for too long.
crystala February 19, 2012 at 12:22 am
Being a blogger about mobile home living and remodeling, I thought I knew a lot about them. There is a very interesting history about the people who designed the original (non RV) concept. Great article!

This information is important for conservation of the eco-system (through green, prefab housing.

Rebecca Paul January 26, 2012 at 12:23 pm
I had no idea the mobile home had such an interesting history. Thanks for the lesson Michael, I learned a lot from this post!
Dan Mendes January 26, 2012 at 12:20 pm
Although I hate mobile homes, it's crazy that they lead to the development of the type of house I would love to live in today
Jessica Dailey January 26, 2012 at 12:19 pm
I completely agree with Diane — so interesting that the mobile home, something that isn't thought of as a modern, fancy home, is the predecessor to the sleek prefabs we know today.
Yuka Yoneda January 26, 2012 at 12:13 pm
I had no idea there was a connection but it makes a lot of sense.
Lori Zimmer January 26, 2012 at 12:12 pm
the original prefab! totally transcends the mobile home stereotype
Diane Pham January 20, 2012 at 3:57 pm
very insightful article. most people don't make the connect between tradtional mobile homes and the new, sparkling modern prefab homes we love today.

PORTAGE | Former Hobart High School head football coach Wally McCormack is expected to hold the same position at Portage High School this fall.
According to a release issued Friday afternoon, the Portage High School athletic department said McCormack is expected to be recommended for the job of head coach and a teacher in the district at the May 21 Portage Township School Board meeting.
McCormack graduated from Portage High School in 1987 and holds a master's degree in secondary education from Indiana University.
He began his coaching career at Fegley Middle School, in Portage, and later went on to coach at Chesterton High School before becoming head coach at Andrean High School in 2001, taking the school to a state championship in 2002.
McCormack last spent eight years as head coach at Hobart High School, before resigning last year.
If approved, McCormack would replace Jeromy Flowers, who recently resigned his post to coach at Homewood-Flossmoor High School.
