Ecuadorian President Correa was reelected and is poised to become Latin America's most outspoken critic of Washington. Bolivia nationalized its airports which had been privatized in 1997.

Washington DC saw the largest rally ever held over climate change concerns. The Pentagon has created a new distinguished warfare medal for drone operators in the US. From RUSSIA- Questions have arisen about the extent of US drone assassinations, including the potential use within the US and how many people have been killed by drones worldwide. The US Federal Institute of Medicine reports that there is a resurgence of Gulf War Syndrome. From GERMANY- Some statistics from the French war in Mali and Germany is sending some support soldiers there. The EU has renewed sanctions against the Syrian government but British plans to arm rebels met with strong disapproval. The US remains number one in global arms sales. From JAPAN- A US Congressional think tank is concerned that the US may be drawn into a military conflict between China and Japan. The Chinese military has denied reports that it is involved in cyber attacks against US targets. Municipalities in northern Japan have asked the government to halt construction of a new nuclear power plant.

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
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!
