[HCDX] The Shortwave Report 11/06/09 Listen Globally!



Dear Radio Friend, 
            The latest Shortwave Report (November 6) is up at the website 
   http://www.outfarpress.com/outfarpress/shortwave.shtml  in both 
broadcast quality (13.3MB) and quickdownload or streaming form (4.9MB) 
(28:59)
   (NEW! If you have access to Audioport.org there is a higher quality version 
posted up there {26.7MB} http://www.audioport.org/index.php?op=producer-
info&uid=904&nav=&)

     This week's show features stories from China Radio International, Radio 
Netherlands, Radio Havana Cuba, and the Voice of Russia.
   From CHINA- China has begun building three new nuclear power plants. 
North Korea claims it has reprocessed nuclear fuel rods for possible 
weapons use. The Czech Republic signed the European Unions reform 
treaty, despite serious doubts about the wisdom of giving up sovereignty. 
The Iraq government has signed a 20 year oil deal with British Petroleum 
and China's National Petroleum Company, to develop what is reportedly the 
biggest oilfield in the world. 350,000 displaced Iraqis have returned home to 
widespread unemployment and lack of resources. The Afghan Presidential 
runoff was cancelled when Abdullah Abdullah withdrew from the race under 
protest.
   From NETHERLANDS- Radio Netherlands has eliminated shortwave 
broadcasts to North America. The decision is based on their surveys that 
find very few listeners in N America. If you ever listen to RN on shortwave, 
please let them know- by email to letters@xxxxxx or send them a letter to 
Radio Netherlands Worldwide, PO Box 222, 1200JG, Hilversum, The 
Netherlands. 
    From Kabul, an analysis of the cancellation of the Afghan election runoff. 
In Germany, a buddhist bank robber has been refused permission for his cat 
to visit him in jail.
   From CUBA- Ousted Honduran President Zelaya says that the US 
government is not helping to solve the crisis in his country. Palestinian 
leaders accuse President Obama of destroying any chance of peace talks. 
The US Congress voted to reject the Goldstone report on Israeli warcrimes 
in last January's assault on Gaza. Walmart has expanded its offerings to 
include caskets. A US federal court ruled that a Syrian-born Canadian 
cannot sue for his rendition to Syria for torture.
   From RUSSIA- Most Ukrainians are opposed to the country joining NATO. 
UN Secretary General Ban ki Moon warned Israel about the continuation of 
settlement expansion in the West Bank. The US military plans for expansion 
in Colombia continue to be opposed by most of Latin America. It has been 
20 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall, yet many new walls have been and 
are being erected such as the ones in Israel and along the Mexican border.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line 
at-http://www.campusprogress.org/soundvision/780/big-stories-shortwaves 
 
I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available 
at http://radio.mediageek.net 

  All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to 
rebroadcast, please notify me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the 
last month, please mention the website if you only air a portion. If you just 
want to listen and have a slow connection, try the streaming version- lower 
sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a high-
speed internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow 
connection, download the smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will 
play swell in any mp3 player application (RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, 
iTunes, etc) you have on your computer. 
This program will be aired on Friday afternoon at 4:30pm (PDST) on KZYX/Z 
Philo CA, you might be able to stream via < http://www.kzyx.org >
There are several other streams that work better- < 
http://www.freakradio.org >Freak Radio Santa Cruz  now streams this 
program on Friday at 9:00am.(PDST)
The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from < 
feed://www.radio4all.net/responder.php/podcast/podcast.xml?series=outFar
press+presents > or iTunes (search for "shortwave" in podcasts) 
Check out the amazing streams at < http://www.radicalradio.org > 
And Radio For Peace International at < http://www.rfpi.org > 

I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I am 
still wondering how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into 
this program weekly- any ideas are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting 
this (or listeners) are welcome to donate for production costs. You can do so 
through the website. Many thanks to those that have donated! No Guilt!

wish to continue it are as guilty as the men who began it, more guilty 
perhaps, for the latter perhaps did not foresee all its horrors."
