This report describes in nontechnical language the various types of
CDs and DVDs now in use, how they are made, and how they work. It
then distills current industry knowledge about disc longevity,
conditions that affect life expectancy, and how to care for optical
media. The guide is amply illustrated and includes a glossary and
bibliography.
The guide's author, Fred R. Byers, is a technical staff member in the
Convergent Information Systems Division of the Information Technology
Laboratory at NIST.
The guide was written for use by librarians and archivists; however,
it will be equally useful to any business or individual wishing to
safeguard CD or DVD collections.

Abandoned and Little-Known Airfields
Abandoned and Little-Known Airfields
by Paul Freeman. Revised 12/18/06
<http://www.airfields-freeman.com/index.htm>
"On the following pages, you will find information on vanished or
abandoned airfields & their unusual histories.
As a pilot, a particular interest of mine has always been the abandoned
airfields that dot the landscape of part of this country, as well as other
unusual and little-known airfields.
Both for their potential safety value to a pilot in an emergency, and also
for their sometimes fascinating history, this particular topic has always
held my curiosity.
When I'm a passenger on commercial flights, I've always found myself
looking out the window, constantly looking for airfields below.
When I fly as a pilot myself, I've always tried to land at as many
airports as possible, to learn a little about each one."
So far, I've compiled descriptions & images of 1,370 airfields in all 50
states.

Stapleton International Airport (DEN), Denver, CO
39.77 North / 104.87 West
This field, originally known as Denver Municipal Airport, was opened in
1929.
It was called the "Union Station of the Air", and heralded as the most
modern facility in the country.
The airport was an immediate financial success.
In 1931, Amelia Erhart stopped at Denver Municipal Airport on one of her
cross-country escapades.
The 1934 Department of Commerce Airport Directory (according to Chris
Kennedy)
described Denver Airport as having four sandy loam runways, with the
longest being a 5,000' northeast/southwest strip.
A hangar was said to have "Denver Municipal Airport" painted on the roof.
Boyd Finch recalled, As a boy age 10-13 (1935-38), I lived in the 2200
block of Krameria Street in Denver.
>From the north end of our block there was open prairie all the way to the
Denver Municipal Airport (Stapleton), and I would ride my bike on diagonal
paths to 32nd (now Martin Luther King) and on to a low bluff on the west
of the airport.
I remember the terminal building & the two hangars.

How to do Community Radio: A Primer for Community Radio Operators
Developed by: Louie Tabing, for UNESCO
Type of resource: Primer
Target audience: General
Cost: Free access
This UNESCO-supported primer builds on the experience of Tambuli,
which in the past ten years has grown from one community radio to a
network of 25 stations. Often located in remote rural areas, these
stations are "operated in the community, for the community, about the
community and by the community". The handbook features basic
community radio concepts, including equipment, finances and
programming. It also brings in aspects of community radio ethics,
councils, and codes of conduct. The document is online as a PDF file
(327 Kb; 70 pages)

9. Writing for Radio
Posted by: "George Lessard" [EMAIL PROTECTED] themediamentor
Date: Thu Dec 21, 2006 7:17 am ((PST))
Writing for Radio
Developed by: Mike Meckler
Type of resource: Web site
Target audience: General
Cost: Free access
This site is intended to help radio journalists improve their skills
as writers and anchors. Topics covered range from writing copy to
improving on-air delivery, and the site include a glossary and links
to external resources. Although not directly aimed at community
radio, http://www.newscript.com should be of value to practitioners
in the area.
The Newswriting for Radio website is an online tutorial on the craft
of radio journalism, with particular attention to the writing of news
scripts. Since 1996, newscript.com has been providing creative
suggestions and ideas to radio news reporters, writers and anchors,
as well as to broadcast journalism students around the world.
Improving your newscasts
The purpose of this website is to help radio journalists improve
their skills as writers and anchors. Journalism education has greatly
declined over the past two decades as colleges and universities have
either closed journalism programs or transformed them into
"Communications Departments." Radio journalism has been especially
hard hit, with diminished teaching resources given over to television
instruction because TV is the more attractive broadcast medium.
Consequently, many journalists starting out in radio lack basic
knowledge on how to communicate effectively though the medium. In the
past, much of that knowledge was learned on the job, but
consolidations, cutbacks and downsizing in radio have reduced news
staffs to the point where news directors can afford little time to
training those new in the profession.
In this sink-or-swim environment, far too many radio journalists have
figured out only how to float. They haven't been introduced to the
wide range of possibilities in preparing radio news and are often
frustrated either by not being able to move up to a larger market or
by not having the satisfaction of becoming respected journalists
within their communities.

10. Participative Marketing for Local Radio
Posted by: "George Lessard" [EMAIL PROTECTED] themediamentor
Date: Thu Dec 21, 2006 7:21 am ((PST))
Participative Marketing for Local Radio
Developed by: AudienceDialogue.org
Type of resource: website
Target audience: General
Cost: Free access
Participative marketing is a new term for what is probably a very old
concept: that marketing is not just something that big corporations
do to consumers, but something that everybody does when engaged in
any kind of purposeful activity. What's new about the idea of
participative marketing is that it deliberately weaves a strong web
of relationships to bring people together for a common purpose. If it
works properly, there's no exploitation, but a filling of mutual
needs. Read most of the chapters of Dennis List's new book,
Participative Marketing for Local Radio on Audience Dialogue website.
