Hard Sub said it was coming, and this week we finally get there. It s full on Shakespeare as we take on the (2011) Ralph Fiennes directed adaptation of his lesser known anti hero CORIOLANUS A solid cast that includes Gerard Butler, Brian Cox, Jessica Chastain and Vanessa Redgrave brings us the tale of Caius Martius Coriolanus (played by Fiennes), a revered and feared Roman General is at odds with the city of Rome and his fellow citizens. Pushed by his controlling and ambitious mother Volumnia to seek the exalted and powerful position of Consul, he is loath to ingratiate himself with the masses whose votes he needs in order to secure the office. When the public refuses to support him, Coriolanus s anger prompts a riot that culminates in his expulsion from Rome. The banished hero then allies himself with his sworn enemy Tullus Aufidius to take his revenge on the city. We round it all out with our Top 3 Uncompromising Movie Characters and we won t compromise on that.

Professor Charles Derber: The Unavoidable Connection Between War and Climate Change
Sept. 28, 2014, 12:55 p.m.
Boston College Sociology Professor Charles Derber spoke recently at a Boston event focused on getting people to New York City for the September 21 rally. His purpose was to explain the unavoidable connection between wars and climate change. Derber is author of "Greed to Green: Solving Climate Change and Remaking the Economy," and several other very special books. He is introduced (in a separate MP3 file posted here) by local organizer Paul Shannon.
We are at a crossroads, faced with a climate crisis that threatens to end our world as we know it. We canât afford the greenhouse gas emissions arising from the way we live and from war and preparation for war.
The sponsors of this event went to New York with the following demands:
(1) Re-direct military spending to the creation of millions of green jobs and to research for a rapid transition from fossil fuels to non-polluting energy sources.
(2) Stop building new fossil fuel infrastructure, including the Keystone pipeline project. Rapidly end fracking projects and the awarding of any new offshore drilling contracts
(3) Move quickly toward mutual abolition of all nuclear weapons as required by the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
(4) Stop blocking the proposals for effective international action on climate change being put forward by the Group of 77 and other developing countries.
We canât effectively address climate change without ending war and militarism and the massive carbon pollution which they directly and indirectly generate. And we canât end war without ending the fossil fuel energy system which war protects. The specter of nuclear war hangs over a world in which there are 10 current wars, 32 limited conflicts, 9 nuclear-armed nations and 17,000 existing nuclear weapons. Climate change will cause massive displacement of impoverished and desperate people leading to regional hostilities and increasing the danger of nuclear war and world wide annihilation.

#343 -- Beauty and Diet (Part 2)
Sept. 27, 2014, 6:45 p.m.
More of R.A. Song's interesting talk about our bizarre standards of beauty--and the purposes of these bizarre standards.
This week she focuses on the "War on Obesity." The medical science behind the anti-obesity crusades is dubious; diets and diet drugs seldom work for long; and the health risks of repeated dieting are substantial. She finds this "war" blames the victim (often the working poor) while the perpetrators (the 1%) rake in the profits.
Last, some suggestions on fighting back.

Labor Highlights From the Peoples Climate March
With our future on the line and the whole world watching, labor and community groups joined forces to take a stand to bend the course of history. And as the people took to the streets to demand that the world we know is within our reach: a world with an economy that works for people and the planet; a world safe from the ravages of climate change; a world with good jobs, clean air and water, and
healthy communities, we were there. Building Bridges was there to now bring you labor voices from the Peoples Climate March .

The Case of Omar Khadr: A Conversation with Dennis Edney
Sept. 26, 2014, 5 p.m.
Omar Khadr is a Canadian born of Egyptian and Palestinian parents. As a child, he had moved to Jalalabad, Afghanistan with his family. He was 15 when the 9/11 attacks happened. Ten months later, he was captured following a battle with US forces in the village of Ayub Kheyl, Afghanistan.
Khadr, injured during the melee was accused of throwing a hand grenade and planting bombs targetting US Troops. In October Khadr was transferred to Guantanamo Bay, suspected of being an enemy combattant. He would reside at that facility for a decade before being released based on a plea bargain.
Khadr's lawyer is Dennis Edney. Edney has taken on the Khadr case pro-bono and has been involved since 2003 representing his client at the Supreme Court of Canada and at the United States Supreme Court. Dennis Edney is recipient of the 2008 National Pro Bono Award and of the 2009 Human Rights Medal awarded by the Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia for work that âhas helped to promote and further human rightsâ.
The Global Research News Hour contacted Edney during his visit to Winnipeg, Canada on the occasion of the Grand opening of that city's brand new Human Rights Museum.

Chris Black gives the history of General Augustin Ndindiliyimana, who was falsely charged with genocide in Rwanda during the 1994 conflict. Gen. Ndindiliyimana was one of the most senior military figures tried by the court based in Tanzanian, Arusha.
Ndindiliyimana spent 7 years in trial refuting lies and 14 years imprisoned. The General was not allowed to visit his dying young son in Belgium.
He was acquitted of the major charge of participation in massacres in June of 2011 and acquitted of minor charges related to oversight of personnel in February, 2014. On September 22, 2014, Gen. Ndindliyman was released to Belgium where his family resides.
The trial judges made a very significant statement that charges against Gen. Ndindilyiman were politically motivated. They clarified: When Gen. Ndindiliyimana refused to falsely testify against General Bagosora, false charges were laid against Ndindiliyimana to further pressure him.
Festival of Hypocrisy: From Ferguson to the NFL
Sept. 25, 2014, 4:29 p.m.
Ishmael Reed explains how the race card is played with violence in all its forms -- from sports, to police, to domestic violence, and to media bias, which literally colours the tone of the violence.
Cases discussed range from the police murdering Michael Brown in Ferguson, and Oscar Grant in Oakland, to the current focus on NFL Black players' violence against their wives and/or children. This wrongly makes domestic violence a solely "Black" American issue. There is media censorship against blacks and female journalists who deviate from the corporate line.
Out of the Woods - Show #232 - 9-25-2014
Sept. 25, 2014, 4:28 p.m.
This version of the program is divided into 6 segments so broadcasters who desire to use this content can insert your station info, etc. The segments vary in length.
Out of the Woods is an earthy, wires and wood, mostly acoustic program featuring some of the best new and established artists from the worlds of folk, bluegrass, singer-songwriters, alt.country, Americana, classic country, old-time, Celtic, and everything that falls in between. The show is an unpredictable mix flowing like a river between moods, often with an edge or in a melancholy minor key. On occasion, Out of the Woods features interviews and live in-studio performances with national and international touring musicians. Past guests have included artists such as Bela Fleck, Si Kahn, Brown Bird, Dana Robinson, Steve Gillette & Cindy Mangsen, Kate MacLeod, Bill Bourne, Karl Shiflett, Rachel Bissex, Darryl Purpose, Bow Thayer, Cosy Sheridan and many others. Out of the Woods grew out of Jon 'Chip' Colcord's former acoustic programs, The Song Swap and Music For The Mountain, separate folk and bluegrass programs which aired in New Hampshire during the 1990s. As a child, Colcord grew up a ravenous music fan with an ear for both rock and folk, from Arlo Guthrie to Aerosmith. All of these influences converge on Out of the Woods to bring you a mix which is as much on the edge as it is down home. Folk music with a rock 'n' roll soul

A stark contrast of material for you this week. We begin with an uplifting reading of Toni "El Suizo" Rüttimann giving the flavor of his latest expedition to Myanmar, in which he built half a dozen bridges of up to 100m in length in a 12 day period. Most of the show is a detailed exposition of old world malfeasance - Kevin Ryan on who he suspects committed the terrorism of Sep 11th - Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney and a bunch of lesser known names, some of whom have been quite successful in evading the limelight, but all of whom appear to be covert operatives for the Deep State.
