http://www.audioport.org/index.php?op=producer-info&uid=904&nav=&;)
This week's show features stories from China Radio International, the Voice of Russia, NHK
World Radio Japan, Radio Deutsche-Welle, and Radio Havana Cuba.
>From CHINA- China has enacted a new income tax law which greatly reduces the number of
of citizens required to file. The Chinese government says that stabilizing consumer prices
remains the top priority. China has an aircraft carrier, making it the last of the UN Permanent
Security members to possess one. The Chinese government is trying to work out
compensation for damages caused by the huge Conoco Philips oil spill in a north China bay.
There are conflicting stories from two of the sons of Muammar Gaddafi.
>From RUSSIA- With the war on Libya apparently winding down, it is easy for NATO to feel
triumphant. However many analysts differ on the success of the operation to oust Gaddafi.
>From JAPAN- A Libyan rebel leader says that about 50,000 people have been killed in the
fighting since March. Then another section from the series on renewable energy sources that
NHK ran 2 weeks ago. This one is on marine energy, including wave and tidal research in
Europe.
>From GERMANY-- The German government has decided not to restart the 8 nuclear power
plants shut down after Fukushima. Turkey and Israel are facing a showdown over last year's
killing of 9 Turkish citizens on the flotilla to break the Israeli economic blockade on the Gaza
Strip.
>From CUBA- The Wikileaks website came under attack Tuesday after releasing thousands of
diplomatic cables. The Afghan government intentionally impeded peace talks between the
US and the Taliban. The Pentagon's use of no-bid contracts has tripled in the past 10 years.
The African Union Chief has accused Libyan rebels of treating all black Africans as
mercenaries for Gaddafi- one third of Libya's population is black. The Socialist Party of
Venezuela has called for unity, warning that some dissidents are calling for foreign
intervention, like what has occurred in Libya.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line -

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.
NEW TIME SLOT on KZYX! This program will be aired on Sunday afternoon at 4pm (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)
NEWLY CORRECTED!!! The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from <
feed://radio.indymedia.org/en/podcast?keys=shortwave++
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! (maybe a little)
