NEW PODCAST!!!- feed://http://www.outfarpress.com/podcast.xml (128kb Highest Quality)
This week's show features stories from Radio Deutsche-Welle, the Voice of Russia,
Radio Havana Cuba, and NHK World Radio Japan.
>From GERMANY- The Green Party in Germany has declined forming a coalition
government with Chancellor Merkel's Christian Democrat Party. There is
controversy over political donations to Merkel from BMW shareholders. The team
attempting to neutralize chemical weapons in Syria cannot get the rebels to
cooperate in a ceasefire. The UN wants more troops and helicopters for their
actions in Mali. The top critic of Russian President Putin has avoided a jail
term but is banned from politics.
>From RUSSIA- There was a new article in Tuesday's Washington Post revealing the
massive extent of NSA data gathering on American citizens.
>From CUBA- Glenn Greenwald says that the most shocking stories about US spying
are yet to come- NSA activities in France and Spain will be released first. The
FISA court has approved extending NSA spying on American phone records. Bolivian
President Morales claims that the Pacific Alliance is an American plot to thwart
the Union of South American Nations, or UNASUR. Brazilian teachers protests
continue in the largest cities, with police clashes erupting in many areas. Last
weekend saw demonstrations against Monsanto GMOs in 400 cities around the world.
A UN official has blasted Canada for its weak handling of problems faced by its
indigenous people.
>From JAPAN- An NHK poll found that 75% of Japanese citizens are unaware of a new
bill protecting state secrets. Remember the hole in the ozone? Some researchers
have data showing its relationship to global warming. South Korea wants to join
in the monitoring of radiation in the Pacific Ocean. Despite efforts to stop
radiation leaks into the ocean offshore of Fukushima, cesium levels have not gone
down. This week a typhoon hit the Fukushima area, further raising radiation
levels reaching the sea. Negotiators from Iran and 6 major powers met over the
nuclear controversy with positive results.
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 >
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)

"Look around. Oil companies guzzle down the billions in profits. Billionaires pay
a lower tax rate than their secretaries, and Wall Street CEOs, the same ones the
direct our economy and destroyed millions of jobs still strut around Congress, no
shame, demanding favors, and acting like we should thank them. Does anyone here
have a problem with that?"
-- Elizabeth Warren
