In 1973, the Beech Grove Indiana rack band Zerfas released their self-titled debut album. The band was led by brothers Dave and Herman Zerfas, who independently distributed the Zerfas record. The album went largely unheard at the time of its initial release, but over the years Zerfas has attracted a strong cult audience. Today, the Zerfas album is considered a lost classic of psychedelic rock music, and original copies of the LP sell for thousands of dollars. A new album from the Logansport Indiana rapper Id Obelus celebrates the legacy of Zerfas. The project is titled “Safrez”, it includes samples from the 1973 Zerfas LP, along with rhymes inspired by Zerfas' lyrics. This week on Cultural Manifesto, listen to an interview with Id Obelus, as he shares the inspiration behind “Safrez”. Also, hear a 2015 conversation with the late Moe Whittemore, he recorded and released Zerfas' 1973 album from his 700 West studio in New Palestine, Indiana. During the 1970s, Whittemore recorded and released dozens of important Hoosier albums from his home in New Palestine.
Ein einsamer Held oder eine Heldin im Kampf gegen das Böse – diesem Erzählschema folgen unzählige Hollywood-Filme. Aber auch die US-Politik. Gerade Donald Trump versteht es, sich als Held zu inszenieren und die US-Gesellschaft und -Medienlandschaft in “Gut” und “Böse” zu spalten. Ciani und Tong-Jin, selbst Journalistinnen, sprechen in dieser Folge über die Wechselwirkung zwischen Politik und Medien in der US-Geschichte. Wie ist die Medienlandschaft historisch gewachsen? Warum gibt es immer mehr News Deserts? Und was können wir von Hollywood-Filmen über die Geschichte lernen?

Poet and translator Henry Taylor was born in Lincoln, Virginia on June 21, 1942. He earned a BA from the University of Virginia and an MA from Hollins University. Taylor's many poetry collections include Crooked Run (2006); Understanding Fiction: Poems 1986-1996; The Flying Change (1985), for which he received the Pulitzer Prize; An Afternoon of Pocket Billiards (1975); and The Horse Show at Midnight(1966). He has translated works from Bulgarian, French, Hebrew, Italian, and Russian. His translations include Black Book of the Endangered Species (1999) by the Bulgarian poet Vladimir Levchev and Electra (1988) by Sophocles. Taylor is a professor of literature and codirector of the MFA program in creative writing at American University in Washington, DC. In 2001 he was inducted into the Fellowship of Southern Writers.After winning the Pulitzer Prize in 1986 for his book, The Flying Change: Poems, poet Henry Taylor remarked to Joseph McLellan of the Washington Post: “The Pulitzer has a funny way of changing people's opinions about it. If you haven't won one, you go around saying things like ‘Well, it's all political' or ‘It's a lottery' and stuff like that. I would like to go on record as saying that although I'm deeply grateful and feel very honored, I still believe that it's a lottery and that nobody deserves it.” Despite his disbelief that he could earn such a prestigious award, the Pulitzer is not the only major prize Taylor has won. His other honors include the Witter Bynner Foundation Poetry Prize from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, two fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Golden Crane Award of the Washington Chapter of the American Literary Translators Association.Taylor also has a sense for the comic. Indeed, the poet has remarked that he was first recognized as the author of several verse parodies, which he submitted to the magazine Sixties. “I was mildly nettled to find that they were better known, at least among poets, than anything else I had done,” Taylor reflects in the Contemporary Authors Autobiography Series. These parodies, along with other poems, appear in the author's first poetry collection, The Horse Show at Midnight (1966). This book also contains poems concerned with the unavoidable changes people must go through in life, a theme that dominates many of Taylor's verses. Dillard explains, “Henry Taylor has for all his poetic career been drawn inexorably to questions of time and mutability, of inevitable and painful change in even the most fixed and stable of circumstances.” The conflict between a desire for life to remain constant and predictable and the realization of the necessity for change in the form of aging, personal growth, and death creates a tension in Taylor's poems that is also present in his other collections, including An Afternoon of Pocket Billiards. Dillard calls this third collection, which contains all the poems previously published in Breakings, Taylor's “best work” up to that time, “clearly marking growth and progress to match his own changes in the years since The Horse Show at Midnight.”A lover of horses since his childhood in rural Virginia, Taylor uses an equestrian term for the title of his fifth book of poems, The Flying Change (1985). The name refers to the mid-air change of leg, or lead, a horse may sometimes make while cantering. Several of the poems contained in the collection describe similarly unexpected changes that occur in the course of otherwise predictable lives spent in relaxed, countryside settings. “Thus in the best poems here,” comments New York Times Book Review contributor Peter Stitt, “we find something altogether different from the joys of preppy picnicking. Mr. Taylor seeks for his poetry [a] kind of unsettling change, [a] sort of rent in the veil of ordinary life.” Some examples of this in The Flying Change are the poems “Landscape with Tractor,” in which the narrator discovers a corpse in a field, and “At the Swings,” in which the poet reflects on his cancer-stricken mother-in-law, while pushing his sons on a swing set. Other poems in the book explore the effects of such incidents as a small herd of deer suddenly interrupting the peace of a lazy day in which the narrator has been reflecting on his old age, or the surprise of seeing a horse rip its neck on a barbed wire fence.A number of critics, like Washington Times reviewer Reed Whittemore, laud Taylor's calm thoughtfulness in these and other poems, comparing it to the tone of other current poets. “Much contemporary verse is now so flighty,” says Whittemore, “so persistently thoughtless, that in contrast the steadiness of [The Flying Change], its persistence in exploring the mental dimensions of a worthwhile moment, is particularly striking, a calmness in the unsettled poetic weather.” Other critics, like Poetry contributor David Shapiro, also compliment the writer on his sensitivity to the atmosphere of the countryside. “Taylor is a poet of white clapboard houses that have existed ‘longer / than anyone now alive,'” observes Shapiro, who quotes the poet. “That is why Taylor can be such a satisfactory poet,” the reviewer concludes.Though he has written award-winning verses, Taylor remains under the radar. According to Garrett and others, this is due to Taylor's nonconformist approach. The critic continues: “In forms and content, style and substance, he is not so much out of fashion as deliberately, determinedly unfashionable. His love of form is (for the present) unfashionable. His sense of humor, which does not spare himself, is unfashionable. His preference for country life, in the face of the fact that the best known of his contemporaries are bunched up in several urban areas, cannot have made them, the others, feel easy about him, or themselves for that matter. They have every good reason to try to ignore him.” Whittemore compares Taylor's technically well-ordered style and leisurely reflections of life to the poetry of Robert Frost and Howard Nemerov. “Among 20th-century poets,” Whittemore concludes, “Mr. Taylor is ... trying to carry on with this old and honorable, but now unfavored, mission of the art. He enjoys such reflections, reaching (but modestly) for what, remember, we even used to call wisdom.”Taylor lives and works in Leesburg, Virginia.-bio via Poetry Foundation Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe
In this episode of the Dover Download podcast, Deputy City Manager Christopher Parker chats with Planning Director Donna Benton about the Capital Improvements Program (CIP) for 2026 to 2031. Benton explains the process of creating the CIP, which begins in the summer with department heads submitting requests for new projects or changes to existing ones. The program covers various categories including general government, public safety, community services, education, and utilities. Projects must meet specific criteria, such as having an estimated cost of $25,000 or more and a useful life of at least three years. Benton highlights several new and ongoing projects, including the Littleworth Road Business Park, Durham Road Congestion Mitigation, citywide drainage improvements, and the Broadway neighborhood revitalization. She emphasizes the importance of the CIP in maintaining infrastructure, demonstrating community pride, and attracting investment. The rollout of the new CIP is scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 16, in Room 305 at the McConnell Center, beginning at 7 p.m. Subsequent reviews by the Planning Board and City Council will follow in the weeks ahead. In This Week in Dover History, we learn about Arthur Whittemore, a prominent Dover citizen who passed away on Oct. 14, 1931. Whittemore served as mayor and state legislator and was involved in various community initiatives, including securing funding for the Dover Public Library.

Today's submission is from an Iowa friend who asked, “How can I create more compelling social media content that converts into sales?” This is a layered question, but it's one I think we all of us should ask from time to time as we develop our marketing strategy and assess its return on investment. Tips for making your social media content stand out for product-based businesses Use multiple images on posts: when viewers see that there are more photos available than they can see from the preview, curiosity takes over and they click through all the images in the post. Each image is logged as one engagement by the social media platforms, and every engagement tells that algorithm that your post is something more people want to see. More clicks = more engagement = more reach. Prioritize candid, real-life images, not just the pretty, curated ones: yes, we live in a world of FaceTune and Photoshop, but what really compels viewers to stop their scroll is something relatable. Think photos that are a little imperfect, backgrounds they recognize from their own community, vignettes that they could picture in their own homes. Incorporate Video: Using video to share new product arrivals, whether in a post, Reel, or Story, will help your viewers get the full effect. Don't feel pressured to do trendy dance moves or spend hours editing and clipping your videos. Just prioritize being helpful and informative as you display your newest items in your shop via video. Listen to today's episode for even more tips! A little more about our guest today… Kimberly Kollasch is the founder and owner of 400 RS Home & Design in Whittemore, Iowa.

During the 1970s, the Indianapolis music scene produced several important funk bands – including Amnesty, an eight-piece ensemble known for their hard-hitting grooves and soaring vocal harmonies. In 1973, Amnesty traveled to New Palestine, Indiana – a small town east of Indianapolis. Their destination was 700 West, a modest recording studio located in the home of Moe Whittemore. Amnesty recorded 10 tracks at 700 West. Two of those recordings were issued on Whittemore's 700 West label – but the full sessions remained unreleased for over 30 years. In 2007 the California-based label Now Again issued the complete Amnesty 700 West sessions. The album was titled “Free Your Mind” and it became an instant classic among funk and soul music fans. The music Amnesty recorded at 700 West has been streamed millions of times online and sampled in hip-hop tracks by Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, and Ye - the artist formerly known as Kanye West. For the next two weeks on Echoes of Indiana Avenue we'll celebrate the 50th anniversary of Amnesty's 700 West sessions by looking back at a 2019 interview WFYI's Kyle Long recorded with Amnesty's vocalist Joe Trotter, percussionist Rafael Barnes, and sax player Gino Johnson.

On this episode of the Peter Panda Podcast, I sit down with my east-coast homie, Waller Whittemore. Now, let me just get WAY out ahead of this one and tell you right now that Waller's a recovering drug addict, currently working on his 7th year of sobriety. We're lucky to have Waller, and this tell-all conversation is proof that he prolly shouldn't even be even alive today. He'd be the first to tell you that his persistent family and his own raw passions for hunting, fishing, and surfing, all helped save his life. I guess the formal verbiage is “Listener Discretion Advised”, so let's just all stop right here for a second. This prolly ain't the best episode to listen to with your young kids. Or your elderly parents. I just don't think that's a good idea. This episode discusses topics of hard-drug use, addiction, relapsing, and ultimately the continuous and complicated road to recovery. At the end of this episode, Waller encourages anyone listening who's struggling with, or knows someone struggles with drug addiction, to personally reach out to him for help. And he genuinely means it! I'll even help hold him to it and make sure all you guys can find links to this kids social. You can find him on IG @wwthittemore71. So listen up. Shits about to get pretty heavy. But fear not, Waller defeated the literal worst of odds and this story has a beautiful ending.

It's been eight years since Shawn Whittemore and his wife, Cynthia, had their world turned upside down. They lost their son, Noah, when he was 32 weeks gestation. He stopped moving when the umbilical cord strangled him. Once at the hospital, Shawn and Cynthia had to make a million on the spot decisions. Thus began their journey of being parents of a deceased child. Learn how Shawn's parenting role shifted from anticipation of a healthy baby to being the father of a baby that's passed. And how he has a sort of dual identity, as the father of four live children and three that didn't make it—Noah, plus two others (one ectopic pregnancy, one miscarriage). How he answers the question “How many children do you have?” depends on the circumstances. Sometimes he says four, other times, seven.

On the newest episode of All Gas No Brakes our host Scott Barglof previews the Duel in the Desert with announcer Chad Meyer.Chad resides in Whittemore, Iowa, where he announces regularly at Kossuth County Speedway and Hancock County Speedway as well as announcing special events for tracks and broadcast companies. One event Chad never misses is the Duel in the Desert, which holds a special place in his heart.While the XR Super Late Models haven't been a regular class at the Duel in the past, Chad states that the best drivers in the country have shown up to take on the big half-mile. Adding such talent to an event that was already considered a crown jewel truly makes the Duel in the Desert a national event.With a laugh, Chad says he is really excited, but also doesn't know what to expect for the $25,000-to-win, 100 lap XR Super Series Karl Kustoms Stock Car feature. Chad recalls the exciting feature in 2021 between Zane DeVilbiss, Dallon Murty, Damon Murty and Jesse Sobbing, and the wild and exciting show they put on. There will be no surprise if the XRSS Karl Kustom Stock Cars steal the show.Historically a Modified gem, the Duel in the Desert will continue to host a number of big hitters in the XR Modified division who have found success at the Dirt Track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, as well as some who are still looking to hit the jackpot. At the top of Chad's mind to watch are Dominic Ursetta, the Yaegers, Jeff Taylor, Sir Lawrence O'Connor, and “The Weekend Warrior” Ricky Alvarado. Chad was last heard on XR+ from the Colossal 100 at The Dirt Track at Charlotte Motor Speedway alongside Jason Frommelt, who will be the other half of the announcing duo at The Duel. This dynamic duo provides intelligent race announcing with witty banter. Mike Nuchols will also join the team, providing technical explanations and filming trackside action to use on the live broadcast.To hear Episode 13 of All Gas No Brakes, listen here or Subscribe on your favorite podcast player.Event Info: https://racexr.com/e/duel-in-the-desert/Watch Live: www.racexr.plusGet Tickets: www.racexr.shop

By highlighting and celebrating the executives driving the evolution within the highest growth software companies in the world, we aim to uncover: Why engagement is critical The importance of diversity, equality, and inclusion How to achieve true scale by attracting a diverse workforce of A Players Today we are joined by Susan Whittemore, Revenue Operations Leader at TeamPay, to discuss her thoughts on what it takes to create a good company culture in a digital world and find out why creating a culture that values mental health can improve the workplace environment and lead to increased performance from employees and teams. “There is a cost to a bad culture. A lot of times we don't see it, we don't measure it, we don't put it on that balance sheet, but there is a performance tax that takes place when you have a rogue culture. If there is on the surface, a sense of belonging, but then behind closed doors individuals are feeling isolated, you're not going to get the optimum performance that you hired them originally for – this is happening with organizations that are spending so much time, energy, and money hiring, and yet they're losing their employees 6-12 months later.” With an extensive background in analytical thought leadership, Susan has experienced first-hand how a toxic workplace culture can be the best predictor of employee attrition, particularly in the tech sector. With a focus on data-driven solutions and innovation, technology companies have a tendency to put products above all else when it comes to creating meaningful change, sometimes to the detriment of their employees. Susan puts forward pivotal strategies for today's leaders on how to create a more synchronised and cohesive work environment. She offers tangible steps on how to develop a positive people-first culture and retain A Player talent by aligning your organisation, facilitating communication between all revenue-generating teams, and taking time to understand what drives people both professionally and personally. Reflecting on the challenges behind us and how to position yourself for the future, Susan illuminates the path forwards and identifies simple and inexpensive measures you can take today to empower your employees, build trust, and transform your workplace culture. Listen to discover how to put people at the centre of your organisation to create a work environment that not only reflects the core mission and values of your company but also allows you to continually improve and scale at a faster, more predictable rate.
Legend of the Week Bill Whittemore joins Prep Football Talk
My guest today and I crossed paths in Club Med Columbus Isle in 1997/1998 where she was in training to be a Choreographer, but her first season was in Club Med Copper Mountain in Fall of 1996 as a Reception G.O. Originally from Atlanta, but now living in Marina del Ray, please help me welcome the amazing, Ouija Whittemore! Before Club Med, Ouija (and yes, we will get into her name!) was a professional dancer until she was thirty years old and her first dance class was at just four years old. She was also a regular on The Mickey Mouse Club and even got to interview Milli Vanilli (you have to see this video!). Ouija went to Club Med Cancun in 1995 as a G.M. and wanted to work for them based on her experience as a guest. When Ouija got home from Cancun a few days later, she saw an ad in the newspaper that Club Med was hiring and she promptly applied. During the span of her first season, Ouija went from Reception to Yoga Instructor to Assistant Choreographer! Ouija entered Club Med specifically with dreams of being a Choreographer and after a season in Club Med Sandpiper in 1997, she was sent on a three-month stage to become a Choreographer. The training took place in three separate Club Med villages: Paradise Island, Columbus Isle and Eleuthera. After Club Med, Ouija became a professional cheerleader for the Orlando Predators in 2001 and presently works in legal cannabis sales and distribution. Ouija is currently training for a half marathon on October 22, 2022 and is running as part of a team of EXGO's, led by Tracy Nathan. The team is collecting donations that will go to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) TNT.
