4 2th Annual Stellar Awards??? saw
a steady parade of electrifying
fusical performances and emo-
ionally riveting acceptance
speeches from winners. Moreover,
for the first time, the Stellar
Awards expanded musically to in-
clude jazz and hip hop artists in
performance. Add it all up, the
??o12th Annual Stellar Awards??? was
perhaps the most memorable in
the history of the show. Viewers
can see all of the excitement when
the ??o12th Annual Stellar Awards???
is broadcast nationwide from Janu-
ary 18th through February 23rd.
As always, the ??o12th Annual
Stellar Awards??? was executive pro-
duced by Don Jackson, and dis-
tributed by Central City Produc-
tions. Among the highlights of this
annual tribute to Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr., and Black His-
tory Month, Kirk Franklin swept
all five of the categories in which
he was nominated, including Song
of the Year, Contemporary Album
of the Year, and Producer of the
Year. In Franklin??Ts dynamicshow-
opener, he was joined on stage by
the husband-and-wife Gospel rap
team of A-] S.W.LF.T. and God??Ts
Property (Get On The Bus
Soundtrack) in a sensational per-
formance. He followed this with
an emotional award acceptance
speech, in which he thanked God
for his miraculous survival of a
catastrophic fall last November,
bringing the entire house ??~to
stunned silence and tears. Later,
the Gospel dream team of Shirley
Caesar, Yolanda Adams, and
Dottie Peoples brought the house
down with their high-spirited
musical tribute to Gospel legend
Bobby Jones, who received the
prestigious James Cleveland
Award.

Black History Month
JAMES WELDON JOHNSON
1871-1938
The song ??oLift Every Voice and Sing??? is the national anthem to millions of
Black Americans. James Weldon Johnson, the composer of this song, was widely known as a man
of rare talent and devotion to his people. During his life, he was a teacher, poet, author,
government official, and civil rights leader.
Johnson was born in Jacksonville, Florida, on June 17, 1871. He was the second of three
children. His father was a head waiter from Virginia, and his mother was born in the Bahamas.
She received an education in New York. She had once taught at the city??Ts largest elementary
school for Blacks. Johnson??Ts mother was a great influence on his later interests in music and
reading. She taught in the segregated Stanton school, which Johnson attended through the eighth
grade. Since there were no high schools for Blacks in Jacksonville, his parents sent him to high
school in Atlanta, Georgia.
As a student at Atlanta University, Johnson wrote over 30 poems. In 1894, he received a
bachelor??Ts degree and was chosen to give the graduation speech. He returned to Jacksonville and
became principal of the Stanton Elementary school. While teaching, Johnson also studied law and
became the first Black lawyer in the state of Florida. In 1895, he started the first Black daily
newspaper in the United States, The Daily American.
Johnson??Ts writings became popular with Blacks in America. In 1900, he wrote the famous
Black national anthem, ??oLift Every Voice And Sing,??? which gave praise to Black hope, strength,
and religious faith. In 1902, he wrote the song ??oUnder the Bamboo Tree,??? which sold more than
400,000 copies. He and his brother John, a talented composer, wrote over 200 songs for Broadway
musicals, including ??oThe Sleeping Beauty??? and ??oHumpty Dumpty.???
Johnson was a U.S. ambassador to the countries of Venezuela in 1906, Nicaragua 1909, and
the Azores in 1912. That same year, he wrote his only novel, The Autobiography of an Ex
Coloured Man. In 1916, Johnson joined the NAACP as National Field Secretary and worked there
for almost 15 years. In 1920, he traveled to Haiti to investigate the charge that U.S. troops were
abusing Haitian Black citizens. Upon learning the truth of the charges, he presented the shocking
facts to the U.S. Congress.
Johnson spent two years in Washington, D.C., trying to pass a law to stop lynchings in the
United States. Although he failed to get the law passed, he did show the American public the
terror that Blacks were living under. Johnson??Ts work with the NAACP helped it to become the
strongest civil rights organization in the United States. He later retired from the NAACP and
taught at Fisk University, in Tennessee. He spoke at colleges and universities and began writing
again. In 1933, Johnson published his popular autobiography, Along This Way.
On June 26, 1938, a car that Johnson was riding in was struck by a train during a heavy
rainstorm in Wiscasset, Maine. His Harlem, New York funeral was attended by more than 2,000
moumers. He was buried in Brooklyn, New York, wearing his lounging robe and holding a copy
of his favorite book of poems, God's Trombones.
During his life, James Weldon Johnson received many honors, including honorary doctorate
degrees, and the NAACP Spingam Medal for Outstanding Achievement. Johnson always believed
that the future held great opportunities for Black Americans. Across the nation, several schools are
- Procter&:Gamble
named in his honor.

Black History Month
Marcus Mosiah
Garvey
1887-1940
It takes courage for a person to go against the odds and the thinking of the masses of people. Marcus
Garvey was such a person. He wanted to change the way his people were being treated. He also felt that
Blacks should take a greater command of their destiny.
Marcus Mosiah Garvey was born on August 17, 1887, in St. Ann??Ts Bay, Jamaica, the youngest of
eleven children. His mother and father were of pure African heritage. At an early age, Marcus learned to
take pride in his race. He attended elementary school in St. Ann??Ts Bay.
Marcus was a very bright student and could speak very well. He was an excellent reader who tried to
read every book he could find. He would often read the dictionary to increase his word knowledge and
reading skills. But, at age 14, Marcus had to quit school and go to work to help support his family.
Garvey became a printer??Ts helper in Kingston, Jamaica. In this newspaper job, he learned many skills
that would be useful to him later. In 1910, he went to Central and South America in search of better jobs.
In each city he visited, it disgusted him to see the prejudice aimed against his people.
In 1912, he went to London, England and studied at Birkbeck College. There he met African
students for the first time. Because of his new friends, he became interested in African independence. He
then began to write for the Africa Times and Orient Review. Upon reading Booker T. Washington??Ts book,
Up From Slarvery, he was deeply moved by Washington??Ts teachings of Black self-improvement.
In 1914, Garvey retumed to Jamaica, convinced that Blacks must find ways to help themselves. So,
he and a small group of friends founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA). The
UNIA promoted racial unity through education, racial pride, business development, and trade with
Africa.
In 1916, wanting to start a trade school, Garvey came to the United States seeking the support of
Booker T. Washington. Yet, Washington died before Garvey??Ts arrival. Within two months, Garvey had
recruited nearly 2,000 members in the UNIA organization. He traveled throughout the United States
preaching racial pride and independence.
Within five years, more than one million Blacks had joined the UNIA. The UNIA had chapters in
every major city, the West Indies, Central America, and South America. In 1918, to further spread his
teachings, Garvey began to publish the Negro World, which became a leading weekly newspaper.
In 1919, Garvey started the Black Star Ship Line, consisting of three steamships. His Negro
Factories Corporation provided loans and help to Blacks seeking to start their own businesses. He sold
stock to Blacks at $5.00 a share to finance the ship line, restaurants, a chain of grocery stores, and a
publishing house.
In 1922, however, the UNIA fell upon hard times, and Garvey was falsely arrested and convicted for
mail fraud. After many appeals in the courts and receiving support from many friends, Garvey began
serving his jail sentence in 1925. In 1927, his five year prison sentence was suspended, and President
Coolidge ordered Garvey to return to Jamaica.
In 1940, Marcus Garvey died in London at the age of 52. He was survived by his second wife and
two sons. We can remember Garvey best for his great ability to organize the masses of Blacks. He would
often state, ??oUp you mighty race, you can accomplish what you will.???

8. Multiple Station systems
will log which station sent the

Other items to consider:
If yourecord an audio message
into the audio storage area, it
will be erased and recorded over
the next time you receive an alert
with audio in it. The Non-Vola-
tile Audio is not included in
Endecs for Radio and TV. The
NV audio??Ts purpose it to notify
cable-TV viewers what channel
ontheir system serves their area.
Any audio stored in NV will al-
ways be aired with all types of
alerts.
The Endec has an internal
safety valve in the form of a
??oWatchdog Timer???. If the Endec
is not at the main opening menu
every 10 minutes it will self-
reboot. This will prevent it from
being in a locked-up state and
missing alerts for several days in
the rack before someone notices
it. The length of the ??oWatchdog
Timer??T is 10 minutes by default.
The Endec handles alerts
based on Incoming filters. Sec-
tion 5.4 in the manual discusses
incoming filters.
The factory default has 4 in-
coming filters to handle received
alerts.
1. Required EAN; set to auto-
matically relay the president, im-
mediately upon receipt. 2. Re-
quired RMT; set to hold the
monthly test for 5 minutes then
relay it or the user can relay it
before time-out.
3. Required RWT; set to only
log a received required weekly
test.
4, Others; set to ignore all
_ events after 10 minute time-out
or user can relay before time-
out. Deleting the ??oOthers??? filter
will cause your decoder to not
receive any event other than
those that are contained in dif-
ferent filters. It is strongly rec-
ommended that you do not de-
lete the ??oOthers??? filter. You may
build new incoming filters to
handle specific events for your
area in a specific manner.
