This week's show features stories from NHK World Radio Japan, Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba, Spanish National Radio, and the Voice of Russia.
From JAPAN- The UN Security Council is making a strict resolution against N Korea because of nuclear weapons development. In response, N Korea announced it is scrapping the armistice signed in 1953 with S Korea. S Korea vowed massive retaliation against the North if provoked any further. A naming of the top national defense budgets. French President Hollande says that his military will remain in Mali for a month longer than originally planned.
From GERMANY- Syrian rebels kidnapped 21 UN Peacekeepers between Israel and Syria, while Britain will supply armored vehicles to the rebels. Parliamentary elections in Egypt have been suspended. The Swiss have voted resoundingly to limit top executive salaries and bonuses. In Argentina a long awaited human rights trial has begun against 25 South Americans for involvement in the US supported Operation Condor. Venezuelans are mourning the death of Hugo Chavez.
From CUBA- Leaders of South American nations all made tributes to the work of Hugo Chavez. Sean Penn and Oliver Stone made public statements about the loss of Chavez. Secretary of State John Kerry confirmed that the US is actively involved in efforts to arm Syrian rebels. At the annual AIPAC gathering, US VP Biden repeated the US openness to attacking Iran.
From SPAIN- The Prime Minister of Turkey has been heavily criticized for describing Zionism as a crime against humanity. Egypt saw violent protests in Port Said. The UN has called on the US to publish its findings on the CIA program of rendition and secret detentions.
From RUSSIA- At Guantanamo Bay prison all but a few prisoners have been on a hunger strike for three weeks. Wikileaks released cables revealed that US officials and Vatican representatives were meeting to work together to stop the spread of leftist ideals in Latin America.

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)
