    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 (December 7) 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)

This week's show features stories from China Radio International, Radio 
Netherlands, Radio Havana Cuba, and the Voice of Russia.
>From CHINA- Following the election of Kevin Rudd as Prime Minister, 
Australia and China are planning to further develop bilateral ties. An 
introduction to the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Bali. The 
International Red Cross has called for more action to be taken against the 
use of cluster bombs and land mines. There were strong global responses 
to the NIE finding that Iran halted its nuclear weapons development program 
in 2003.
>From NETHERLANDS- The NIE report on Iran's abandoned nuclear 
weapons program is analyzed by Phyllis Bennis of the Institute For Policy 
Studies. As the costs for oil climb, Europe is looking at a proposal from 
Jordan to build large -scale solar energy plants in the desert.
>From CUBA- A Viewpoint on the United Nations Conference Climate in Bali. 
Australia's incoming Prime Minister has pledged to withdraw his occupation 
troops from Iraq by the middle of next year. Israel has announced plans to 
build more houses in occupied East Jerusalem, a week after Israel pledged 
to freeze development in the area.
>From RUSSIA- The NATO Command expects Serbs and Albanians to clash 
in Kossovo in upcoming weeks. In England, the Turner prize for modern art 
has been given to Mark Wallinger for his replica of an antiwar protest in 
Parliament Square entitled "State Britain." Last weekend's election in Russia 
was a landslide victory for Putin's party- Western media immediately judged 
the election "dirty."
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
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 Monday at 5:30pm(PST)
The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from < http://www.radio4all.net/podcast.php/.xml?series=outFarpress%20presents > 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!
