This week's show features stories from Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba, Spanish National Radio, the Voice of Russia, and NHK World Radio Japan. From GERMANY- A look at the legacy of former British PM Margaret Thatcher, whose influence was felt far beyond the UK and especially in the Eurozone. Hundreds of protestors clashed with police in Venezuela after the newly elected President rejected demands for a election recount. From CUBA- Many world leaders congratulated Nicolas Maduro on his victory in the Venezuelan Presidential election. On Tuesday Maduro said that his government had defeated a coup by the opposition which started street violence following election results. From SPAIN- More on the protests and post-election violence in Venezuela, and a litany of nations that support the election results. Then 2 press reviews on the worsening state of the Euro and legislation in Andalusia which allows evicted families to occupy vacant homes owned by banks. From RUSSIA- The world reacted to the victims of the Boston Marathon explosions with messages of support. British scientists claim to have found hard evidence that chemical weapons have been used in Syria, though it is unclear whether the government or rebels discharged them. From JAPAN- North Korea has rejected a US call for dialogue, dependent on Korea beginning to cease nuclear development. At the Fukushima nuclear power plant pumping has begun to decrease the amount of radioactive material leaking into the soil and Pacific Ocean. A Japanese court rejected a lawsuit to shut down the two nuclear power plants operating in Japan. French protestors tried to stop MOX nuclear fuel from being shipped to Japan- the power plants that utilize MOX fuel remain shut down since the Fukushima accident. A former Hiroshima mayor has been awarded a German medal for his contributions to world peace. A powerful earthquake struck near the Pakistan-Iran border on Tuesday- both countries are using emergency services to find survivors.

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 > Podcast- feed://www.radio4all.net/responder.php/podcast/podcast.xml?series=outFarpress+presents https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/series-podcast-outfarpress/id602376726
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!
