Heres information about central florida broadcast stations
Broadcast Tower,WFTT-TV is the Telefutura affiliate for Tampa Bay, owned by Univision and operated by Entravision, owners of WVEA-TV. The station, which broadcasts on UHF channel 50, is based at WVEA's studios on Hillsborough Avenue in Tampa, and transmits from Riverview. WFTT can be seen on cable throughout the Bay Area on Bright House channel 5, and on Comcast in Sarasota County on channel 23.
With the completion of the 442.550 repeater in Riverview at 805ft in January, the western pointing antenna on the 442.825 repeater caused a expected overlap that was unnecessary. Since 442.550 now blankets Hillsborough County, we have as of April 11th taken the antenna off the west leg of the Pebbledale tower site at 800ft and moved it to the east leg of the tower. What does mean for users? The tower has a 7 foot wide face, which creates a null that is created behind the antenna. This null used to face a huge portion of Polk County. By moving this antenna to the east, the null is now facing essentially Brandon/Riverview, where 442.550 is now located at 805ft. So far we have gotten incredible results from users in eastern Polk County. Some users in Sebring reporting almost full scale signal, and mobile users with hand helds on 27 at 5 watts can use 442.825 now. None of this was previously possible. So with this move, expect to hear more Polk, Osceola and I-4 corridor area users making it into the network.
A nother tower WVEA (channel 62) is Tampa Bay, Florida's first Spanish-language TV station, which had its start in the early-1980s as low-powered W50AC ch.50, which offered programming from the Spanish International Network (SIN), the forerunner of today's Univision. In 1988, to make way for new HSN flagship WBHS (now WFTT-TV), the station relocated to channel 61 and became W61BL. In the mid-1990s, the station was re-called "WVEA-LP". In 2000, WVEA's parent company, Entravision, acquired Sarasota English independent WBSV channel 62, with the intent of moving the transmitter from Venice to the antenna farm at Riverview. WBSV signed on May 3, 1991 as the Sarasota area's own independent station, designed to compete against WWSB and the other stations in the Tampa Bay and nearby Ft. Myers markets. Licensed to Venice, Florida the call letters stood for Bradenton, Sarasota, Venice, the three cities it primarily served. WBSV had a variety of syndicated and local programming, plus infomercials and home shopping programs. early on, they also had its own newscast. But, WBSV was eternally in red ink, and relied more on home shopping and infomercials to keep the station afloat....

Broadcasting tower is a new high-rise student accommodation building in Leeds city centre. One of its most interesting features is the COR-TEN cladding, which, upon exposure to weather, develops a rust-like layer, protecting it from any more corrosion.
Most of the people I know are not very fond of how the tower looks, but it's hard to deny that its interesting facade and unusual angular shapes make it a very suitable object for photography :)

In 1980 (when my study of the BBC really took off) there were 3 BBC 'Network Production Centres' in England. With the demolition of Pebble Mil, Birmingham & the move to Salford from New Broadcasting House, Manchester - Broadcasting House in Whiteladies Road, Bristol is the only one of the 3 still standing.
Home to the world-renowned BBC Natural History Unit, as well as a long line of antiques-based programmes on radio & tv (plus a great deal more since 1934).
Incidentally it's 25 years since I first walked through these doors.

APRIL 2009 | ISSUE NO 043
This month:Peru and China sign FTA, Venezuelan opposition politician is granted
asylum, Monterrico Metals reveals it is to de-list from the London stock exchange
AIM, but first…
FUJIMORI CONVICTED
Former Peruvian president, Alberto Fujimori, has been found guilty of human
rights violations related to two massacres and the kidnapping of two people
during his time in office (1990-2001). The 70 year old was sentenced to 25
years in prison.
Peru''''''''''''''''s Supreme Court ruled that Fujimori bore individual criminal responsibility
as indirect author of the crimes in all three cases because he had effective
military command over those who committed the crimes.
The court heard the cases of Barrios Altos (in which 15 men, women and children
were killed), La Cantuta (in which 10 people were kidnapped and later killed)
and the kidnappings of journalist Gustavo Gorriti and the businessman Samuel
Dyer.
This is a landmark ruling in Latin America, where it is the first time a democratic
leader has been tried and convicted in his own country for crimes against humanity.
Amnesty International has signalled that the case also sets an international
precedent by showing that nobody is exempt from being held to account.
Fujimori''''''''''''''''s sentence is subject to appeal before the Supreme Court.
STEADY FINANCES…LITTLE POVERTY REDUCTION…GREATER SOCIAL PROTEST
Peru''''''''''''''''s economic growth will slow to 3% in 2009 as external demand weakens sharply,
according to the Economist Intelligence Unit''''''''''''''''s (EIU) 2009-2010 forecast. It
also predicts that the country is well-placed to mitigate the effects of the
global financial crisis, owing to sound public finances and international reserves.
The EIU predicts that growth will rise to 4% in 2010 once US demand starts
to recover, which should lead to renewed levels of exports.
However, on a more cautionary note, it states that “administrative inefficiencies
and political fragmentation” will weaken the government''''''''''''''''s capacity to mitigate
the impact of the downturn. This incapacity to implement poverty reduction
policies is likely to lead to an increase in social unrest.
Social Protests
Some 48% of social conflicts in Peru are linked to environmental concerns,
particularly regarding mining activities, according to the Peruvian Human Rights
Ombudsman''''''''''''''''s (Defensoría del Pueblo) March report. Regions with a high level
of conflict include Loreto, in the Amazon jungle, as well as Cusco, Lima and
Piura.
The study also shows that during March, 23 new social conflicts flared up,
making the total number of active conflicts 179.
On a more positive note, there is an ongoing process of dialogue surrounding
69 conflicts and three have been resolved. For example, members of campesino
community Chiquintirca, in Ayacucho, would not let the company TGP (Transportadora
de Gas del Peru) operate in the community as it was not going to create jobs.
The company has now created 22 jobs for community members and this has resolved
the conflict.
SOLDIERS DIE IN SHINING PATH AMBUSH
Members of the Shining Path have killed 14 soldiers in two ambushes in Peru''''''''''''''''s
Ayacucho province, according to the country''''''''''''''''s defence minister, Antero Flores
Araoz. The ambushes, which took place in the town of Sanabamba in the coca-growing
region of the Ene and Apurimac valleys (VRAE), is not an isolated incident.
Last year, remnants of the Shining Path launched a series of fatal attacks
killing around 25 soldiers and police officers.
Shining Path, a Maoist-influenced guerrilla group, was a major force in Peru''''''''''''''''s
internal armed conflict from 1980-2000. Since then, their activities appeared
to have calmed, until a recent spate of attacks in the Ayacucho province.
In contrast to its ‘heyday'''''''''''''''' during the internal armed conflict, the group is
now thought to have around 300 members. However, it has bought more powerful
weapons with profits from drug trade activities. &quot;We will fight militarily
those who defend imperialism and the government,” said Victor Quispe Palomino,
member of the Shining Path, which according to Peruvian police has forged allegiances
with poor towns that rely on coca planting for income.

MINING COMPANY DE-LISTS FROM UK STOCK MARKET
Monterrico Metals has stated that, subject to shareholder approval, it will
de-list from the UK small companies'''''''''''''''' stock market AIM by 3rd June 2009. Chinese
consortium Zijin Tongguan and Japanese-Korean consortium LS-Nikko Copper remain
the principal shareholders of the company, holding 79.9% and 10.0% of the company''''''''''''''''s
issued and paid-up share capital respectively.
The former British junior mining company operates the Río Blanco copper mining
project in Piura, Peru. Monterrico was recently embroiled in allegations of
the illegal detention and torture of anti-mining protestors in 2005 (Peru News
042).
TWO THIRDS OF PERU VULNERABLE TO CLIMATE CHANGE
The UK government is supporting the Office of Peru''''''''''''''''s Human Rights Ombudsman
(Defensoría del Pueblo) to oversee public policy that the Peruvian government
is developing on climate change. Ombudsman staff is being trained for the task
in coordination with the different public institutions working on the issue.
Two-thirds of Peruvian territory is said to be vulnerable to the effects of
climate change, according to the country''''''''''''''''s environment ministry. There will
be less water available in valleys that depend on diminishing glaciers. This
will have a significant impact on agriculture and hydroelectricity production.
Vulnerable zones include the poorest regions in Peru, such as Huancavelica,
Apurímac and Ayacucho, and consequently Peru''''''''''''''''s poorest people will be the worst
affected.
VENEZUELAN POLITICIAN GRANTED ASYLUM
Peru has granted political asylum to Venezuelan politician Manuel Rosales.
Rosales claims he is part of a witch hunt by President Hugo Chávez''''''''''''''''s government
against opposition politicians. Rosales ran against Chávez in the 2006 presidential
elections. He was elected mayor of Venezuela''''''''''''''''s second biggest city, Maracaibo,
last year but stepped down following accusations of amassing an unexplained
fortune dating back to his time as the governor of Zulia state.
Rosales was due to appear in court in Venezuela on 20th April to face corruption
charges. He failed to appear. He denies the charges and says that they are
politically motivated. One of his lawyers in Venezuela, Alvaro Castillo, claims
that his client left the country as &quot;he wasn''''''''''''''''t going to have a fair or clean
or impartial trial&quot;.
Following Rosales'''''''''''''''' arrival in Peru, his lawyer Javier Valle-Riestra said that
they had submitted their asylum request to Peruvian authorities on 21st April
and expected a decision within two months. It took about a week.
Peru''''''''''''''''s Foreign Minister José García Belaúnde maintains the decision was in
line with the country''''''''''''''''s commitment to international law. In response to Peru''''''''''''''''s
actions, Venezuela has recalled its ambassador to Lima.
PERU &amp; CHINA SIGN FTA
Peru and China have signed a Free Trade Agreement (FTA). The agreement was
finalised at a ceremony in Beijing on 28th April and was attended by Peru''''''''''''''''s
vice-president Luis Giampietri and Trade Minister Mercedes Araoz.

"The speed of communication is wondrous to behold. It is also true that speed can multiply the distribution of information that we know to be untrue."

Broadcasting House, Portland Place, London
Prospero and Ariel by Eric Gill, 1933.
Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,
Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices,
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open, and show riches
Ready to drop upon me; that, when I waked,
I cried to dream again.
Ariel from The Tempest by William Shakespeare
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arthur Eric Rowton Gill, 1882-1940, was an English sculptor, typeface designer, stonecutter and printmaker, who was associated with the Arts and Crafts movement. A maverick socialist and radical Catholic, he is a controversial figure, with his well-known religious views and subject matter generally viewed as being at odds with his sexual behavior, including his erotic art. Gill was adamantly opposed to fascism, and was one of the few prominent Catholics in Britain to openly speak up for the cause of the Spanish Republicans. Gill became a pacifist, and helped set up the Catholic peace organisation Pax. Later Gill joined the Peace Pledge Union, as well as supporting the British branch of the Fellowship of Reconciliation. Gill died of lung cancer in Harefield Hospital in Middlesex in 1940. He was buried in Speen churchyard in the Chilterns, near Princes Risborough, the village where his last artistic community had practised.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Over the front entrance of Broadcasting House stand the statues of Prospero and Ariel (from Shakespeare's last play The Tempest), by Eric Gill. Prospero, Ariel's master, stands 10ft tall and is depicted sending Ariel out into the world. Ariel, as the spirit of the air, was felt to be an appropriate symbol for the new mystery of broadcasting.
After Broadcasting House was opened and the statues were installed (1933), concern was voiced about the size of the sprite's genitalia. A question was tabled in the House of Commons, but the popular story, that Gill was ordered to modify the statue, is not substantiated.'
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Herbert Read first approached Gill about this commission in October 1929. In a letter of 15 February 1931 Gill referred to being in the thick of making designs for the BBC; he exhibited drawings for four different designs for this group at the French Gallery, November 1933. The drawing on stone of the approved design was done in March–April and the carving was begun in May and finished in August 1931, according to extracts from his diary supplied by his brother Evan Gill.
The theme of Prospero and Ariel set by the BBC did not appeal to Gill, and he wrote in his Autobiography: ‘I took it upon me to portray God the Father and God the Son. For even if that were not Shakespeare's meaning it ought to be the BBC's.’

2013: Sexual abuse charities are urging the BBC to remove the statute in front of Broadcasting House made by artist Eric Gill, after it was revealed that he sexually abused his two eldest daughters.
His 1932 statue Prospero And Ariel, inspired by Shakespeare's play The Tempest, occupies a prominent position at the entrance to the BBC's Broadcasting House in Portland Place, London.
Fay Maxted, chief executive of The Survivors' Trust, which supports survivors of rape and childhood sexual abuse, told the London Journalism Centre: 'It's an insult to allow a work like this to remain in such a public place. It is almost mocking survivors, it is intolerable.'
Peter Saunders, chief executive of the National Association For People Abused In Childhood, added: 'There's a strong argument that this should be removed. These symbols are in people's faces.' The statue was especially inappropriate in light of the recent Jimmy Savile scandal, he added.
