From the Chief Executive officer
Bert Schmidt President & Chief Executive Officer
meet the team!
y the time you read this, it’ll be December, while
Thanksgiving will be a still-warm memory. As I was contemplating what I’m thankful for this year, I realized the
list has been the same for the past several years: two bright, terrific kids and a beautiful, supportive wife – and the best job I could ever imagine having. I came to WHRo in 2007, impressed with the station’s nationally recognized role in education, as well as its mission of service to the local community. I’m so proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish in the last seven years – especially our work with eMediaVA and the expansion of our public radio services to audiences outside of Hampton Roads.
But of course, I also realized that none of what we’ve done would have been imaginable, let alone accomplished, without an extraordinary staff of dedicated professionals who have taken our mission to their hearts. While we have about 100 extraordinary full time employees, let me introduce you to my senior team:
Doug Weiss, Chief Operating Officer: Doug has a distinguished background in public radio and television, having served for many years as an executive with the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. His expertise has been invaluable as the demands of my job take me away from the office more and more, to both fundraise and advocate for public media. I know WHRo is in good hands when I’m away.
Tom Morehouse, Chief Financial Officer: Tom devoted many volunteer hours to WHRo before his experience in strategic financial planning made him the top candidate for the position he now holds. He’s the man with the facts and figures, with a gift for explaining financial spreadsheets and charts to lay people, board members and auditors alike.
Phillip Perdue, Chief Development Officer: The newest member of my team, Phil leads the fundraising arm of the station. He’s already survived his first on-air pledge
drive, and with a resume that includes more than 25 years of professional experience in senior level advancement and development positions with major health, non-profit and educational institutions, he’s already establishing relationships with donors at every level.
Brian Callahan, Vice President, Education: Brian has been with WHRo for more than 20 years, and is responsible for a variety of state and regional educational technology products and services, most notably eMediaVA, our state-wide educational digital content portal; Virginia’s PBS TeacherLine; the Virtual Virginia Advanced Placement School operations center; the production of our online high school courses; and our Ready To Learn pre-K outreach services.
Heather Mazzoni, Vice President, Content: Heather came to WHRo in 1998 as an audience and member services representative, and within six months had been promoted to traffic specialist/programming assistant for the radio department, providing service to WHRo and WHRV FM. In 2001, she was promoted to Director of Radio operations and in 2007, to Director of Programming for WHRV 89.5FM. She is responsible for the development and operation of SpeakEasy, a digital radio stream at 89.5-1HD. Currently she oversees the day-to-day operations of television and radio programming, radio operations, production, underwriting, and traffic.
This is a formidable team of extraordinary individuals, whose talents and energies have melded into a creative, vibrant unit. I believe our audiences, and you, our members, will have reason to celebrate their efforts as well.
Making public broadcasting better – serving the educational needs of a diverse and growing population – providing stimulating programming: these are our resolutions as we begin the new year of 2014. I look forward to reporting to you as the year progresses.
A publication for the WHRo community in Hampton Roads, VA
We appreciate the support of all of our members, and thank each and every one of you!

he Chrysler Museum of Art’s glass Studio opened its doors in november, 2011. Since then, it has welcomed thousands
of visitors – locals and tourists alike – all fascinated by the glass artists who create unique and beautiful works of art before their very eyes. From glassblowing to flameworking, fusing, sandblasting, and coldworking, the glass Studio features demonstrations of techniques as ancient as 50 BCE and as current as today – and as dangerous as ever.
glass on Fire is a new one-hour public television program produced by WHRo in conjunction with the Chrysler Museum of Art. Through demonstrations, conversations with the glass masters and vibrant imagery, glass on Fire leads viewers on a tour of the 7,000 square foot studio and imparts the story of how the art of glass played a vital role in
the foundation of the Museum – and how in turn, the Museum has given a new generation of glass artists tools and training in the state-of-the-art studio.
The program reveals why the passion of the glass art craftsmen, the keen eyes of glass collectors, and the trailblazing mentorship of the glass Studio are the future of the art of glass genre, and exquisitely illustrates why so many people are drawn to this Hampton Roads treasure each week.
We are extremely proud to share glass on Fire with the WHRo television audience. It’s TV worth watching!
glass on Fire premieres Wednesday, December 4 at 8pm.

eal planning in itself can be overwhelming, and even more so around the holiday season. At Let’s Eat, we
believe in simplifying the process to help you save time and money, while enjoying a plentiful holiday meal.
So what is the ultimate tool for helping you keep cool, calm and collected? Lists! grocery lists, guest lists, to-do’s and more! It can be challenging to keep all the details of your holiday meal in your head, so get into the habit of creating lists and checking them twice. Write your various lists at least two weeks ahead of time and add more items as they pop up. Here are some essential list ideas and tips on covering all your bases.
• Guest List – list everyone on your invite so you have an idea of how many servings you need to prepare.
• Menu - one of the most fun lists to create! Write down all of your traditional favorites and any new twists you want to try. Make sure to include options for all of your veggie, dairy-free and gluten-free friends. not to worry though, big holiday meals are actually perfect — since there are so many dishes, there is bound to be something for everyone.
• Cocktails anyone? – Wine and champagne are wonderfully festive, but be sure to offer beverages for the non-drinkers too.
• Shopping List - With menu and recipes in hand, making up your shopping list is a breeze.
• To-Do List: This one should include items such as “create a centerpiece” and “iron the table cloth.” Create this list in plenty of time to get a couple things crossed off daily for the week or two leading up to the big day.
Let guests Help. Many hosts believe that if you host the big meal, you have to prepare everything yourself. nonsense! If they have a specialty dish they want to bring, that’s perfect. If they offer to pick up a pie or a bottle of wine, that’s great too. Big holiday get-togethers are all about sharing great food with family and friends, not the stress of constant cooking. If your guests ask if they can bring something, by all means, say yes!
So, while list-making may feel like a daunting task, we promise that putting some time in now will save you loads stress when you want to focus on relaxing with your friends and family.

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a large roasting pan with foil and oil the foil. Place roast on foil.2. In a small bowl, combine garlic, oil, rosemary, pepper and 2 teaspoons of the salt. Rub mixture all over pork (not the bones), inside and out. If you like, place a small ovenproof ramekin or a bowl in the center of roast to help it keep its shape. Wrap tips of bones with foil to prevent them from burning. Roast pork in the center of the oven until just browned, about 1 hour.3. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine broth, onion, celery, butter and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt, and bring to a boil. Stir in rice. Lower heat, cover the pan and simmer until rice is tender, 40 to 50 minutes. Add cranberries, pecans and 2 teaspoons thyme, and toss. Remove from heat.4. Remove pork from the oven; remove ramekin. Toss rice and mound in center of pork; if some doesn’t fit, transfer to a small baking dish and roast alongside the pork. Continue to roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of chops (not touching bone) registers 150°F, 20 to 30 minutes more. Let rest 15 minutes.5. using 2 spatulas, carefully transfer roast to a platter; replace any stuffing that falls out. Remove and discard foil tips and any string used to tie roast. Sprinkle top of rice with remaining 1 teaspoon thyme. Carve between bones and serve each chop with rice stuffing.

ver the course of 2013, we’ve been trying to get the word out about what’s going on locally in public education. You may
have noticed a new series of television spots on WHRo called Education noW, where superintendents representing the public school divisions that own WHRo discuss the challenges they are facing in education today, like funding, assessment and accountability.
We’re continuing the Education noW series by showcasing the opportunities our owner school divisions provide for student success. WHRo Education and Production team members are traveling all over the area, from Middlesex to Isle of Wight to Poquoson, to capture video in classrooms, interview students, and show you at home the latest and greatest programs and initiatives taking place in our schools.
We have visited a handful of school divisions so far and have many stops to make in the coming days. In Isle of Wight County
Schools, we learned about the “iSLE 21” program, which stands for the Initiative for Student Learning and Engagement in the 21st Century. The program gives every Isle of Wight student an iPad® to use to access e-textbooks, complete assignments and even read sheet music.
We also discovered newport news Public Schools’ focus on career development and exploration. High school students are able to enroll in special courses related to career interests in fields like health sciences and STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics). Students can even get an early start on a career during their last semester of high school through the Early Career Program.
And in Mathews County, we visited The Thrifty Spot, a community thrift store where Mathews High School’s special education students sort, price and display the merchandise. The students gain real world work experience and the store makes enough money to be able to give back to the school division.
You can tune in to watch the new Education noW spots on WHRo-TV beginning in early 2014. In the meantime, keep an eye out, because we may be coming to a school division near you!

oo often, low-income high school students who shine academically fail to apply to any competitive colleges and universities, instead
opting for the “easy” schools. none of the adults these students encounter and/or their older, former schoolmates attended a selective institution of higher learning, and these institutions don’t appear to aggressively recruit low-income high-achievers unless they attend selective high schools that are on the academic map.
That’s the takeaway from a study published last year by Stanford university economics professor Caroline M. Hoxby and Harvard public policy professor Christopher Avery. From my vantage point, their conclusions are spot-on. In recent years, I’ve helped administer a college scholarship program that has attracted its share of financially challenged, high-achieving students who don’t apply for “reach” schools. Some applicants said they didn’t do so because of the high costs of competitive colleges. The irony of that assumption, Hoxby and Avery point out, is that competitive institutions, given their financial resources, are more likely to provide generous financial aid packages—even a full-ride—to low-income students, than less-competitive, resource-poor schools would.
As the two academics show, these students could be helped if adults steered them to dream bigger, outside their backyard, and if they saw peers attend competitive institutions. A more recent follow-up report they issued also shows these young adults are more likely to reach higher when they are provided with information that demystifies the true costs of competitive colleges and shows they have a strong chance of academic success in such settings. During my days at an urban high school, these factors certainly helped cement my college aspirations. I was a high-achieving student from a financially challenged background, and my parents did
not attend selective institutions of higher learning; but at my school I saw or heard about teens who didn’t come “from money” yet still went on to attend some of the best colleges and universities in the country—Yale and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology among them. My thinking: If my peers could attain such heights, so could I. My teachers and my terrific guidance counselor told me I could too.
I went on to attend a competitive university hundreds of miles from home. While there, I met people from a broad range of geographic, economic, and academic backgrounds. I learned a lot about the diversity of people and experiences, not only in the classroom through renowned lecturers, but in my dorm and through student activities. For the first time in my life, on an intimate level I met people who were well-off, and I found that many of them had the same fears and growing up to do that I had. My experiences at that school endowed me with the belief that I could succeed in many settings. Reaching for the stars academically was a blessing.
While in high school, being surrounded by success and being encouraged to aim high was critical to keeping me on the path to strive for the best in higher education. As Hoxby and Avery’s study suggests, more of that type of encouragement needs to take place in all types of high schools, and staffs at competitive colleges can help the effort by broadening their search for eligible students from low-income backgrounds.
It would be great to see more of these students—and more of the applicants for the scholarship program I assist—reap the benefits of reaching for the stars.

s the producer of WHRo’s membership campaign on television, it is always exciting to showcase the special
programming we feature in a way that enhances your viewing experience. The Season of giving is a very special time of year for me and I enjoy creating the spectacle of the holidays as we bring you some wonderful shows to enjoy. We researched a variety of programs for you this season, from old favorites like Andy Williams, Celtic Woman, and Lawrence Welk, to some new performers like child prodigy pianist Ethan Bortnick, Celtic Thunder’s Paul Byrom, and the angelic voices of Libera. once we have the programs in place, it is my job to then arrange how we bring them to you in our television studio. Again this year as an important part of our Season of giving setting, we are displaying a holiday hearth. What a wonderful way enjoy the programs WHRo brings you, by the fireplace and nestled in that easy chair!We are also pleased to have some new and familiar faces joining the WHRo family this Season of giving on your television. They are long-time members and supporters of WHRo and believe in its mission to you and to our community. During the Season of giving, we are also treating you with some in-studio guests from the programs we are featuring, including Ethan Bortnick and David “Mr. McFeely” newell. Thanks for your support of WHRo and I wish the very best in this Season of giving!

s fall turns into winter, people have a lot to look forward to: various holidays, the advent of the new year, vacations, and time spent away from
work and more with family and friends. But this winter, fans of the DC hardcore punk scene have something else to find under their Christmas tree—the documentary titled Salad Days: The Birth of Punk in the nation’s Capital. Directed by Scott Crawford and produced by Jim Saah, Salad Days looks at the history of the DC punk scene, which was prevalent in the mid-1980s, and it features dozens of interviews with influential figures like musicians Ian MacKaye and Dave grohl and fans and
promoters of the scene like comedian Fred Armisen. The film is set to be released in Quarter 4 of 2013.
In this episode of Stories in the Sky, Scott Crawford and Jim Saah talk with Defenestration’s Victor Russo about their production of Salad Days, their lives growing up in DC, and their passion for sharing the music and culture that inspired this documentary. To listen to the full interview, visit defenestration.net

MUSIC OF THE BAROQUE HOLIDAY CONCERT mONdAy DECEMBEr 23 aT 10PM WHrO 90.3 FM
Chicago’s Music of the Baroque brightens the season again this year with a special brass and choral holiday concert. Brass instruments have long been associated with ceremony and celebration, and thus with Christmas. And another other instrument of praise, the human voice, has been telling the story of the nativity for thousands of years. This holiday concert will feature brass and choral works.
A FESTIVAL OF NINE LESSONS AND CAROLS CHriSTMaS EVE aT 10aM • WHrO 90.3 FM
The red and green crept into the stores even before the orange of Halloween exited. And by the middle of this month, those familiar holiday tunes will be wearing very thin. As antidote to this excess, WHRo-FM offers glorious seasonal music by Handel, Bach and other masters and, to really bring Christmas into focus, the Festival of Lessons and Carols, broadcast live from King’s College, Cambridge in England. Begun in 1918, this moving service captures the true spirit of Christmas in Biblical readings and carols.

This service in song and word includes hymns, carols, choral works, and orchestral selections celebrating the nativity and featuring more than 500 student musicians who are members of five choirs and the St. olaf orchestra. The festival truly captures the spirit of the season with warmth and joy and solemnity.

Ruth’s will said a lot about her.
What does your will say about you?
Adding charity to your will or IRA

As a “pink lady” Ruth Goodman accumulated more hours than any other volunteer at the Norfolk hospital where she greeted visitors. Before she died in 1995, Ruth arranged for a bequest to the Hampton Roads Community Foundation to give good health to the community she and her husband Victor loved. This year 21 students are studying to become physicians, pharmacists and other medical professionals thanks to scholarships generated by Ruth’s generosity. Many more Goodman Scholars will follow every year forever. Write your prescription for a better future by ordering a free bequest guide. Learn how easy it is to leave a gift for charity.

A DIFFERENT WAY TO THINK ABOUT AGING
For a personal consultation with our senior care navigator call (757) 856-7030 or visit
riversideonline.com/services/seniors.
It’s about honoring and supporting what people want as they get older — “As I age, I will control my destiny in a place of my choosing.” Seems simple enough. But in the world of healthcare where “we know best” has been the tradition, asking people what they value as they get older is a true innovation that’s making a difference in the lives of thousands.
It’s an approach that promises to change the way people think about aging. And it all begins by asking what matters most. That’s what happens at Riverside, where we have world class physicians and the most comprehensive network of services in the state dedicated to helping you reach your life goals as you age.
As I age, I will control my destiny in a place
of my choosing.
