Thursday Mar 1st, 2007 4:49 PM

    A weekly 30 minute review of news and opinion, recorded from a 
shortwave radio. With times and freqs for listening at home. 2 files- 
broadcast and slow-modem streaming. Free to rebroadcast. China, 
Netherlands, Cuba, and Russia.

Dear Radio Friend,
The latest Shortwave Report (March 2) is up at the website
http://www.outfarpress.com/outfarpress/shortwave.shtml in both 
broadcast quality (13.3MB) and quickdownload or streaming form 
(3.3MB) (28:59)

This week's show features stories from China Radio International, 
Radio Netherlands, Radio Havana Cuba, and the Voice of Russia.
>From CHINA- The warm winter temperatures in China have broken 
historical records. N. Korean officials will meet with the US State Dept 
in Washington next week to begin the normalization process. US allies 
in the invasion of Iraq are beginning to withdraw troops while the US is 
increasing its numbers. An agreement between the leaders of Hamas 
and Fatah in Palestine will lead to the rebuilding of the PLO.
>From NETHERLANDS- Israel has stepped up its attacks in the West 
Bank for the past week, locking down the village of Nablus. A move by 
the EU to standardize the requirements to call food organic has led to 
large demonstrations- the EU wants to allow genetically modified foods 
to be labeled organic.
>From CUBA- Fidel Castro called in to Hugo Chavez's weekly radio talk 
show and they discussed alternative energy sources and Fidel's health. 
According to the Daily Telegraph UK, Israel is negotiating with the US 
to use Iraq airspace for future bombing raids on Iran.
>From RUSSIA- A commentary on Condi Rice's statements comparing 
Russia and the former Soviet Union, and US plans to place more 
missiles in Eastern Europe. A commentary on Russian worries about 
the US discussion of a return to a "Cold War" relationship.

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 (PST) 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 and Saturday at 11am(PST)
The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from < 
http://www.radio4all.net > or iTunes (search for "shortwave" in 
podcasts)
Check out the amazing streams at < http://www.radicalradio.org >
And the Partytown streams are great and informative- 
<http://www.partytown.com/radio >

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)

We have learned that change cannot come through war. War is not a 
feasible tool to use in fighting against the oppression we face. War has 
caused more problems. We cannot embrace that path.
