China is expected to loosen restrictions on overseas investments. New Zealand has confirmed the deaths of 160 in last weeks earthquake. South Korea and the US military have launched new war games after the South dropped leaflets on the North.
From RUSSIA- More on the US/ South Korea military exercises and the propaganda bombardment of North Korea, encouraging a Egyptian style revolt against Kim Jong-il. Julian Assange has lost his case in London and will be extradited to Sweden, pending an appeal.

From CUBA- Ecuador and Venezuela are considering creating a diplomatic group to visit Libya and urged world powers to not launch a new war. 20 NATO warships have began military exercises off the coast of Spain. The Cuban representative to the UN reiterated the original concept and policies of peace-keeping operations formed at the United Nations. In Honduras, the Peoples National Resistance Front ratified former President Zelaya as their coordinator and will boycott upcoming elections. A Viewpoint on last weekend's demonstrations in Mexico City against the continuing violence created by a war on drugs being trafficked into the US.

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 evening at 6:30pm (PST) on KZYX/Z Philo CA, you might be able to stream via
There are several other streams that work better- Freak Radio Santa Cruz now streams this program on Friday at 9:00am.(PST)
NEWLY CORRECTED!!! The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from
And Radio For Peace International at
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)

"I'm worried that students will take their obedient place in society and look to become successful cogs in the wheel - let the wheel spin them around as it wants without taking a look at what they're doing. I'm concerned that students not become passive acceptors of the official doctrine that's handed down to them from the White House, the media, textbooks, teachers and preachers."
