EDUCATION

He’s Still Walking PointTHE VETERANS PROJECT

follows an international culinary expedition with Phil Rosenthal, one of Hollywood’s funniest producers, as he tries new things, explores and shares good food and laughs with family and friends — what a perfect fit for WHRO.

More programs in the “don’t miss” category are: American Experience profile of Walt Disney, and the rebroadcast of Ken Burns’ The Civil War, marking the film’s 25th anniversary with a newly restored high-definition version. And for those who love independent film, be sure to watch the provocative and moving stories from Independent Lens and the new shows from POV. Facebook friends, be sure to check out the new “Staff Pick of the Week” program recommendations from our staff on WHRO’s Facebook page.

Garrison Keillor said, “I believe in looking reality straight in the eye and denying it.” Unfortunately, we cannot deny this is his last season as host of the beloved Prairie Home Companion. We thank you and wish you well Mr. Keillor. Prairie fans don’t fret. Garrison’s understudy, musician Chris Thile, will succeed him full time as host in September 2016. So keep your radios tuned for more music, Guy Noir and Powdermilk Biscuits commercials (“they’re tasty and expeditious”).

September also marks a historical moment in WHRO’s history. Twenty-five years ago, WHRO expanded public radio in Hampton Roads and went from one to two stations — WHRV for news, folk and jazz, and WHRO-FM for classical music. Thanks to you, our listeners, we have had the privilege to provide the programs and music you love and we enthusiastically look forward to the next 25 years.

Bert Schmidt

or many of us, it is always a surprise how quickly September arrives, often signaling the start of

new experiences and opportunities. At WHRO, like students in Hampton Roads, we are already “back to school” as we launch a new project with the Virginia Department of Education, continue working with our 19 owner school divisions, and present our viewers and listeners with a great mix of new programming along with audience favorites.

WHRO recognizes the importance of responding to students’ technological and educational needs as they prepare for college and/or careers. In support of this goal is our recent agreement with the Virginia Department of Education to develop a pilot for a full-time Virtual Virginia high school program.

Virtual Virginia currently provides high-quality advanced placement and world language online courses that meet the requirements of schools and students. By merging thirteen of WHRO’s online high school courses, along with Virtual Virginia’s courses, the Virginia DOE will offer, for the first time, a full-time online high school program.

September is also the time of year when Brian Callahan, WHRO’s vice president for education, and I begin speaking to our owners’ school boards to provide them with an annual Impact Statement. These statements, individualized for each division, outline the services they received from WHRO during the past year and the actual cost savings. In a typical year, WHRO will provide savings and value to our 19 school divisions of approximately $15 million. We are proud of the significant financial impact these services have made to the regional divisions over the many years.

As you read through this issue, I recommend you take a look at the extraordinary new schedule for the upcoming season. I’m very excited about programs such as Indian Summers from Masterpiece, featuring acclaimed actress Julie Walters and set in 1932 when the height of privilege was to be British in India; The Widower, based on the true story of the charming killer Malcolm Webster; and, for the fans of quirky British comedy, season two of Vicious.

All cooking show enthusiasts should be sure to watch I’ll Have What Phil’s Having. This new show

merica’s history is filled with creative, forward-thinking individuals who, at the

very time they were at their most creative and forward-thinking, were being called crazy by others. In our long history, a few names stand out as perhaps the most influential in their field. Thomas Edison, Amelia Earhart, Steve Jobs — these were driven people, not always loved by the people around them, but no less impactful on our country and the world. In the field of entertainment, Walt Disney changed everything.

Born of humble beginnings in 1901, Walter Elias Disney grew up in Chicago determined not to be like his father. His dad was an arrogant and domineering man whose business ventures often ended in failure.

An artist and cartoonist in his youth, Disney is only 17 when he returns from World War I, and moves to Kansas City, landing a job as a commercial artist. Disney soon shows some of that famous ambition and starts his own animation studio. Sadly, Laugh-O-Grams goes bankrupt. But Disney is undeterred and moves to Los Angeles to join his brother Roy, with the idea he would break into the Hollywood entertainment business.

Before long, the Disney Brothers Studios is cranking out a ‘short’ every 16 days. It was then, in 1928 that a certain mouse was born. It was not smooth sailing from then on, as life is seldom so easy. His life is filled with successes and near catastrophic failures, but along the way the seeds of an entertainment empire begin to grow.

American Experience takes its usual no-stone-unturned approach to telling the story of one of America’s, and the world’s, most important entertainers. This engaging tale of wonder and mishap spans two nights beginning September 14. In the first episode, you see the early years of Walt, including his vision of the first long-form animated feature film. This adaptation of the tale of Snow White was a huge artistic and financial gamble. Disney’s perfectionism plagued the production with slowdowns and setbacks, but his gamble paid off.

Walt Disney — Creating a Whole New WorldSnow White and the Seven Dwarfs grossed $8 million in its first year – the modern day equivalent of more than $100 million. His other visionary plans were hit or miss until 1941, when a strike forced Walt to drive through a picket line of over 200 of his animators and friends. Surprised, angered, and feeling betrayed, Disney was devastated.

Episode two, on Tuesday night, begins with his next major films — Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, and Peter Pan. But the looming second World War impacts the entertainment industry, and Disney faces a mountain of debt.

It wasn’t until after the 1950 release of Cinderella that Walt, now in failing health from the stress and chain smoking, turned his entire attention to his most audacious concept — Disneyland. His vision was a living movie and three-dimensional make-believe world where real people experience adventure.

With the eventual opening and success of Disneyland, Walt was free from the financial burdens and complications of the investment banks. He dreamed big, and then even bigger as he focused on what became his legacy.

RADIO SCHEDULE SEPTEMBER 2015

10

In 1990, the internet was in its infancy. Classical music was heard on the radio or played from compact disc, and news was delivered at specific times of the day on radio or TV. All of that is changed now, of course, but what hasn’t changed is the importance of classical music in the lives of many people.

Recognizing this, in the late 1980’s, under the leadership of Ms. Vianne Webb, WHRO embarked on a bold plan to expand public radio in Hampton Roads, to create two stations — one for news/public affairs, folk music and jazz, the other for classical music.

Over the past few months, Garrison Keillor has been in the news, having told more than a few media outlets that he has decided that the current season of A Prairie Home Companion will be his last as the show’s host. He’s also indicated that mandolinist Chris Thile is his choice to take over the show when the time comes. He states that with this change, APHC will take a

somewhat new direction as a more music-centered show. Garrison promises to return occasionally as guest host, bringing with him Guy Noir and other longtime favorite bits when he does. While the show’s distributor, American Public Media, has made no comment, let alone any official announcement, rest assured that the show will continue in its Saturday evening timeslot at 6 pm, and that we will let you know as soon as we know anything official. In the meantime, enjoy what may very well turn out to be Garrison’s last season as host of APHC.

NPR has had quite the runaway hit with Invisibilia, and you’ll get to experience it for yourself in our Thursday “specials” time slot at 1 pm.

Invisibilia (Latin for “all the invisible things”) explores the intangible forces that shape human behavior – things like ideas, beliefs, assumptions and emotions. Co-hosted by NPR’s Lulu Miller

and Alix Spiegel, who helped create Radiolab and This American Life, Invisibilia delves into a wide array of human behavior, interweaving narrative storytelling with fascinating new psychological and brain science. Produced by NPR News, Invisibilia turns the dry and scholarly into utterly captivating storytelling. In Invisibilia’s pilot season, Spiegel and Miller dig deep into our innermost minds — examining our dark, disturbing thoughts and whether those thoughts say anything about who we are, our fears and how they shape our actions, and our need for belonging, and how it shapes our identity and fuels our emotions over a lifetime. They will take you into the real-world consequences of our own expectations — sometimes so powerful that they can overcome physical disability — and test your assumptions that empathy brings people closer together. Along the way, you’ll encounter fascinating individuals, such as the man who has merged with his computer, and a woman who physically feels what others feel. Invisibilia is a glimpse into a world you can’t see. Listen. Feel different.

Invisibilia

EDUCATION

onjour, Hola, Salve and 您好. These are just some of the ways high

school students across Virginia are learning to say hello through Virtual

Virginia www.virtualvirginia.org, the Virginia Department of Education’s online Advanced Placement (commonly called “AP”) and World Languages pro-gram that has served more than 40,000 students since its launch in 2002. Virtual Virginia currently offers more than 20 full-year AP courses in subjects such as Physics, Statistics, Art History, and Psychology, among others, and nearly

With Help from WHRO, Virtual Virginia Expands to Full-Time20 World Language courses including Arabic I, II and III; Chinese I, II, III, and IV; and Latin I, I, III, and IV, to name a few. Courses are available to all public, private and home school students, regardless of location.

Starting this month, Virtual Virginia is expanding its online offerings to include “core curriculum” courses such as Algebra I; Algebra II and Trigonometry; English 9, 10, 11, and 12; Health and Physical Education 9 and 10; and Virginia and U.S. Government. This pilot will offer all of the required courses for grades 9-12, meaning that a student could earn a Standard or Advanced diploma, completely online.

What most people don’t know is that WHRO has played a major role in Virtual Virginia since the beginning. When the system first launched, WHRO ran the entire program including not only the technical operations and support, but the instructional aspects as well. For a short period early on, nearly

By Brian CallahanVice President of EducationBrian.Callahan@whro.org

40 teachers were employed by WHRO! As the service matured, teachers wanted to maintain their status in the Virginia Retirement System, and since WHRO offers a different retirement package, the Charlotte County Public Schools were brought in as a third partner and all of the teachers are now employed there.

WHRO still provides all of the technical operations and support for Virtual Virginia and has expanded its role as a content provider. In fact, all of the core curriculum courses mentioned earlier were developed by WHRO. This is a trend that we hope to see continue as the state expands Virtual Virginia to include additional electives at the high school level and begins offering a complete middle school curriculum. Sorpresa!

here are numerous studies about the importance of promoting “reading

for fun” early in a child’s life. It develops vocabulary, helps with concentration, and supports language and imagination development. However, cultivating a love of reading can be a challenge. If a youth’s main reading experience is associated with school, it can feel more like a chore. Access to books is another obstacle. Fortunately, there are creative community programs developed that not only encourage kids to curl up with Dr. Seuss or A. A. Milne, but make books available to them.

One solution is to provide books in locations where kids are likely to visit. That is the theory behind Barbershop Books, a nonprofit based in New York City. As statistics illustrated the widening achievement gap for young black boys, former teacher, Alvin Irby, was determined to find a way to provide them with access to culturally relevant, high interest books. His solution — create child-friendly reading spaces in barbershops. Their

Reading: It’s a Community Affairtagline says it all, “Well groomed. Well read.”

Including the family in a child’s experience can help reinforce reading at home. Fort Lauderdale, Florida’s Broward Center for the Performing Arts Reading Readiness Through the Theater program offers a learning experience for the whole family.” The initiative, which focuses on students in Head Start programs, includes books for the home library, an outing for the family to literature based theater, as well as training for parents on strategies to promote reading at home. Combining the theater with books provides an exciting way to make reading come to life.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

T Then there is Ryan Traynor, the 15 year old who realized the importance of books while reading to Head Start kids for a Boy Scout badge. After learning that not all children in his area have access to books, he set off to make a difference — a 25,000 book difference. Ryan collected books in his back yard and distributed them to literacy programs, schools, shelters, wherever there was a need. But Ryan isn’t finished, he has started math, science and financial literacy programs for youth.

WHRO also provides Hampton Roads youth with access to books. Our “Raising Readers Van” tours throughout the area providing age appropriate books and games for children and families.

ack in February, out of the clear blue, I began receiving messages from

members of the professional network LinkedIn congratulating me on my work anniversary. Odd, I thought, my day job’s anniversary isn’t until July. Then it occurred to me they were referring to Hunter At Sunrise on Alt Radio, my longtime side project. It was then that I realized that the show has been going strong for six years.

Through it all, I have produced close to 300 acoustic session interviews on the show featuring national, regional and local artists. They have been the signature feature which airs live every Sunday from 7 to 11 am and is On Demand at WHRV.org and HunterAtSunrise.com Many of the interviews have been live in the studio, and some have been recorded on location as if they were live. I’ve also programmed hours of acoustic and eclectic music to wake you up the right way on a Sunday morning.

The program started in the early 90s as Sunrise on the Coast and then later morphed

Hunter At Sunrise Is Alive, Well And Part of “The Scene” into Sunrise on Sunday on 93.7 Bob FM. In 2009, I moved the show to a new and quite different programming platform created by John Heimerl of WHRO, Alt Radio, originally dubbed RadioNtenna.

Added emphasis was put on the show’s web component by streaming AltRadio, and thus Hunter At Sunrise, live on the show’s website. In fact, the show has become a study in contrasts as I’ve mixed old school CD playing with modern day streaming on WHRV.org, AltRadio.org, iTunes, Shoutcast, and Radiotime. It’s even available for free on the WHRO smartphone app.

After six years, I am excited about the relationships Hunter At Sunrise is forging with the community, especially “The Scene” with support from Victorian Tea Station in Phoebus we have discovered many new and exciting artists. The show has also been a longtime supporter of Tidewater Arts Outreach’s Sea Level Singer/Songwriter Festival in the spring, helping to bring national recording artists to the area.

Other projects in the works including bringing back the Sunrise to Sunset Acoustic Music Festival as a harvest festival in the Fall of 2016 in Town Point Park, and partnering with Norfolk’s Five Points Farmers Market to present original local artists. After appearing live on the show, the artist goes to the market to play on stage during Sunday brunch.

What we are proudest of is the preservation of old school free-form radio and the discovery of many local, national and often unknown musical artists who play live at the end of every show.

To those of you who already join us every Sunday morning, thanks so much for listening. For the rest, I hope you will tune in. You’ll be in for a grand awakening.

s civilians, many of us only learn about PTSD through what we read and hear

in the media. From these occasional stories, we know that many veterans struggle with the demons of this disease, but I now know that most of us will never comprehend the immense challenges that many vets with PTSD face every single day.

Recently I had the honor of spending time with Mr. Carlston Jackson, a soft spoken Vietnam War veteran whose stature still projects military. After a quick exchange in which I was told, “You can call me Ray,” we sat down to chat about his experiences. In thoughtfully chosen words mingled with resurfacing emotions, Ray shared his story.

Ray was a corporal in the 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team, also known as the “Sky Soldiers,” in Vietnam in 1970. As often is the case for vets, Ray’s disability determination was an entirely different sort of battle — one that took nearly 30 years before the VA scheduled a hearing. Even though his VA appointed advocate did not arrive, he signed an affidavit and in quiet words told his story

about his life with PTSD. At the end, a VA representative hugged him and said, “I am so sorry.”

In Ray’s words, combat veterans live in two worlds, the world in their head and the everyday world that most of us would find familiar. On any given day, he can find himself back in what he calls ‘the zone.’ For Ray, just seeing a specific type of tree or hearing another vet’s story can trigger a memory or feeling and at once, he’s back in Vietnam. The ‘zone’ follows him everywhere, affecting his interactions and he doesn’t even realize it. What Ray assumes are casual conversations may elicit a defensive response; he is unaware that he is communicating as if was in combat. He is in ‘the zone.’

Ray is in counseling now, which helps him cope. Though his PTSD accompanies him every day, he feels he and other Vietnam War vets are giving back by ‘walking point.’ In combat, a soldier walks point, taking the lead position where he is exposed and vulnerable. His job is to lookout for the troop and help new recruits learn by showing them how to look for snipers

and booby traps. Now, Vietnam Vets like Ray are walking point for those coming home from other wars.

When we finished talking, I asked Ray if I could take his picture for the article. As he posed, he smiled for the camera and said, “I want to show them happiness to let them know everything will be alright.”

6 Myths About Cooking Pasta

here are many myths about cooking pasta that simply aren’t correct and

yet they persist. Read on for a few that I would like to see disappear.

1 Oil in the water. Don’t add oil to the pasta water. It makes your pasta slippery, causing the sauce to run off.

2 Drain well. Don’t drain every last bit of water off of the pasta. A little water is good for the sauce and sometimes you will want to add more.

3 Rinse the pasta. Unless you’re planning on using your pasta for a cold pasta salad, don’t rinse it after draining! (If you are using it for a salad, it is a good idea to give it a quick rinse to wash away any residual starch, which will make it gummy and then toss it with a touch of olive oil, to keep it from sticking.)

4 The water must be boiling. Don’t be concerned about keeping your pasta at a full rolling boil each time. In fact, a great new method for cooking pasta is to add the pasta to boiling water, stir, bring it back up to a boil, turn off the heat, and cover the pot. The pasta will cook in the same amount of time and to the same texture, as it would have if it cooked at a full boil. True!

5 If it sticks to the wall, its done. Don’t throw your strand of spaghetti on to the wall to see if it is done. It’s not a good indicator and you’ll just have to clean your wall.

6 Fresh pasta is superior. While it’s true that many things are better when they’re fresh. Fresh pasta isn’t superior to dried pasta, it’s just different. Fresh pasta has a silkier, softer texture and should be used with sauces that complement it.
