Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
23 - 29 March 2009

Solar activity was very low. Isolated low-level B-class flares were detected early on 26 March. The visible disk was spotless.

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at normal levels throughout the period.

Geomagnetic field activity was at quiet levels at all latitudes on 23 March. Field activity increased to quiet to unsettled levels on 24 March with minor storm periods detected at high latitudes. Activity increased to quiet to active levels on 25 March. Activity decreased to quiet to unsettled levels during 26 - 27 March. A further decrease to quiet levels at all latitudes occurred during 28 - 29 March. ACE solar wind observations indicated the 24 - 25 March activity increase was associated with periods of enhanced solar wind velocities (peak 526 km/sec at 24/2352 UTC), weakly enhanced interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bt (peak 8 nT at 23/1958 UTC),
and intermittent southward IMF Bz (minimum -6 nT at 24/1225 UTC).

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
01 - 27 April 2009

Solar activity is expected to be very low.

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to increase to high levels during 10-14 April. Normal flux levels are expected during the rest of the period.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at mostly quiet levels through 08 April. Activity is expected to increase to unsettled to active levels during 09 - 10 April due to a recurrent coronal hole high-speed stream. Activity is expected to decrease to quiet levels during 11 - 19 April. Activity is expected to increase to quiet to unsettled levels during 20 - 21 April. Activity is expected to decrease to quiet levels during 22 - 27 April.

SATURDAY 28 March
*** The State We're In ***
US President Obama has said he's considering negotiating with 'moderate' elements of the Taliban. But Afghan parliamentarian Fawzia Koofi tells us that giving the Taliban any kind of power would be a disaster for women's rights.

We look at the right to learn and speak with teachers in Zimbabwe who are regularly beaten by government thugs on suspicion of having voted for the opposition. And we report from Beijing were school discipline can be so strict that not only students get beaten, sometimes the parents do too.

And do animals have rights? We let two thinkers on rights of our four footed friends and food duke it out on the air.

*** Global Perspectives (primary programme) ***

Radio Books takes a break as we present our annual documentary exchange series featuring eight national and international broadcasters giving their perspective on a topic of global interest. This year the theme is 'Islands'.

'A Prison within a Prison'
When one thinks of prison islands many names spring to mind - Devil's Island, Robben Island, Alcatraz Island, to name a few. Gaza may not be an island or a prison, but it feels like both to many residents - especially since an Israeli blockade has isolated them from the rest of the world.

In October 2008, RNW producer Eric Beauchemin travelled to Gaza for a mental health conference and spent time with the Saleh family. Fouzan Saleh suffers from depression. He's had to close his small textile factory and one by one sell off the sewing machines to support his family. He lives in a small apartment with his wife, three children and his 60 year old mother.

This week on Earthbeat, we hear what noise you can get from a traffic cone, some drain pipes and a funnel. Recycling never sounded so good as we get a tour backstage with the Lost and Found Orchestra.

We also dig into an idea to make concrete out of carbon dioxide and find dodgy foundations to the scientific theory.

We have a report on Islam-friendly microfinance initiative and also discover why developing countries should reach for the stars, even when they have more immediate problems closer to home.

This week in Earthbeat we do some digging behind the buzz-phrase 'cradle-to cradle'. The idea is a version of recycling, where nothing is wasted - where at the end of a product's life, you still have exactly what you had at the start. But is this idealism ever possible? We look at a couple of examples; following the life cycle of leaf plates in India, and carpet tiles made here in the Netherlands.

CBC makes drastic cuts

CBC cuts hit news, drama, sports, radio
Last Updated: Thursday, March 26, 2009 3:19 PM ET
CBC News

CBC English Services plans to cut up to 80 positions from its news division and a further 313 from sports, entertainment, current affairs, sales and support across the country as part of its efforts to make up a $171-million shortfall in 2009-10.

Richard Stursberg, executive vice-president of CBC's English Services, announced details of the cutbacks to radio and TV in a speech to employees on Thursday. The details came a day after CBC president and chief executive Hubert Lacroix announced the public broadcaster would have to cut about 800 full-time positions in total at the CBC/Radio-Canada, as well as selling about $125 million in assets.

The cuts to programming at CBC English Services will mean fewer episodes of many prime-time television shows and cuts to entire programs on both Radio One and Radio 2, Stursberg said.

Changes coming to Radio One and 2

Changes on Radio One include:

* Cancellations of The Inside Track, Outfront and The Point.
* Reduction of regional noon-hour programs to one hour.
* Reductions in drama.

Changes on Radio 2 include:

* Cancellations of In the Key of Charles and the weekend edition of The Signal.
* Reductions in live music production and recordings.
* More consolidations with Radio 3.

On CBC-TV, investigative programs such as The Fifth Estate and Marketplace will have reduced budgets, though it's not yet known whether that will mean fewer episodes.

Canadians can also expect to see more repeats of many prime-time programs, with shorter seasons ordered for ones including:

* The Border.
* This Hour Has 22 Minutes.
* Being Erica.
* Little Mosque on the Prairie.

The CBC will also reduce spending on new children's programming and cancel the Living programs produced in each region.

In CBC Sports, there will be reductions or cutbacks in coverage of:

* International figure skating.
* CONCACAF Champions League soccer.
* World aquatics.
* World athletics.
* Skiing.

The CBC will also drop its Blue Jays baseball telecasts.

CBC Radio loses 121 jobs

About $14.4 million must come out of radio, leading to a reduction of 121 jobs, including 20 in Toronto.

There will also be job losses in the Ontario cities of Windsor, Thunder Bay and Sudbury, in Quebec City, in the New Brunswick cities of Moncton and Saint John, in Sydney, N.S., and in Corner Brook, Gander and Grand Falls in Newfoundland and Labrador. There will be budget reductions at CBC North. (Perhaps an excuse to do away with CBC NQSWS?-FW)

One-person bureaus in La Ronge, Sask., and Thompson, Man., will be closed.

About 109 positions will come out of television entertainment, including the previously announced cancellations of Fashion File and the placing of Steven & Chris on hiatus. A further three jobs will be cut from CBC-TV Sports.

A total of $7 million must be cut from the news division, including 80 jobs in radio news, current affairs and TV current affairs.

The number of people who lose their jobs could be reduced if a number of employees opt for a retirement package to be announced in April.

Stursberg also said there would be further details released about cuts in news on April 16.

He called the cuts "painful" and said he was worried about the future of news, TV drama and children's programming. He noted that the cuts in drama will also have an impact on dozens of independent producers and their employees.

"We want to maintain as much as we can and stay on strategy as much as possible as we make these cuts," Stursberg said.

He emphasized that radio morning and afternoon drive shows have been spared and radio remains ad-free. On television, the CBC will keep 80-per-cent Canadian content in prime time and increase it during the day, with shows such as Martha Stewart and The Simpsons expected to be cancelled.
Cuts needed despite high ratings

He said the CBC tried to make cuts that would maintain the strong position it has now with high ratings in radio and television.

"The irony is, we are in financial difficulty when we're doing better than we've ever done before," he said. More than 20 million Canadians tune in to CBC Radio, CBC-TV and CBC.ca every week, he said.

Stursberg said he didn't know whether further cuts would be necessary, perhaps a year from now.

Ad revenue by all conventional broadcasters has been falling and private broadcasters, like the CBC, have experienced a steep decline in revenue.

"It depends in very large measure on what happens to earnings. If ad markets recover, we will be in much better shape," Stursberg said.

"We can't really see where the bottom is. No one has any sense of when the economy is going to come back."

At a speech in Montreal on Thursday, Lacroix warned there would be deeper cuts if the CBC is unable to sell off assets.

He announced on Wednesday that the CBC was hoping to sell $125 million in assets — but those sales must be approved by the federal government.

Lacroix criticized the Conservatives for leaving the CBC in limbo over its budgetary allocation for 2009-10, saying the government has not yet let the CBC know whether it approved the special $60 million for programming it has received since 2001. The CBC's new fiscal year begins in five days.
Supper hour newscasts cut in Quebec

Lacroix said no part of Radio-Canada will be untouched by the cuts.

Among the large cuts on the French side are the elimination of noon hour news shows in Quebec City, Ottawa, Moncton and Sherbrooke and reduction of the supper hour newscasts in those markets to half an hour from an hour.

The programs Vous êtes Ici and Macadam tribus have also been cancelled.

Lacroix also announced Radio Canada International will eliminate its Ukrainian and Cantonese services.

President of the Canadian Media Guild's CBC branch Marc-Philippe Laurin said employees face a hard six months.

"It's sad that we've come to expect layoffs as a way of life at CBC," he said in memo to CMG members, saying these decisions "cut to the very heart of what we do and who we are."

"It is also very disappointing that the Conservative government has let this happen at a time when our members and the public broadcaster are doing better than ever in every market across the country in providing valuable and informative programming to Canadians," he added.

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
16 - 22 March 2009


Solar activity was very low. No flares were observed. The visible disk was spotless.

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels on 16 - 18 March. Normal levels were observed on 19 - 22 March.

Geomagnetic field activity was at predominantly quiet levels from 16 March to mid-day on 20 March. During this time, ACE solar wind velocities gradually decreased from 473 km/s to a minimum of 271 km/s at 19/1947 UTC. The interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bz
ranged between -4 nT and + 5 nT. Activity increased at mid-day on 20 March, as a recurrent coronal hole rotated into a geoeffective position. Quiet to unsettled conditions were observed at
mid-latitudes through early on 22 March. Major storm periods were observed at high latitudes on 21/09 - 15 UTC. During this period, ACE solar wind velocities increased to a maximum of 472 km/s at 22/0550 UTC. The IMF Bt increased to a maximum of +12 nT, and Bz reached a minimum of -9 nT at 21/0928 UTC.

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
25 March - 20 April 2009


Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels.

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to increase to high levels during 10-14 April. Normal flux levels are expected during the rest of the period.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at predominantly quiet levels through 08 April. Activity is expected to increase to unsettled to active levels during 09 - 10 April, with a chance for minor storm periods at high latitudes due to a recurrent coronal hole high-speed stream. Mostly quiet activity is expected for the rest of the period.

Forty years of Radio Veritas in Asia
Radio Veritas Asia (RVA) will celebrate forty years of broadcasting on 15 and 16 April, 2009. The station first aired its regular overseas and domestic programs on 11 April, 1969 after a longer period of test broadcasts. The jubilee celebration on 16 April will be preceded by a symposium on 15 April. Radio producers, programmers and other invited professionals will share their experiences and insights on the theme “Catholic Radio Broadcasting in Asia.”

The jubilee celebration proper on 16 April stands under the heading “Crossing Borders, Sharing Christ.” It will be opened by Archbishop Claudio Ma. Celli, president of the Pontifical Council for Social Communications in the Vatican, who will give the keynote address. This will be followed by greetings and reflections from the Apostolic Nuncio in the Philippines, Archbishop Joseph Edward Adams, and other Church and secular authorities.

Radio Veritas Asia operates in the responsibility of the “Federation of Asian Bishops’ Conferences” (FABC). It broadcasts in 15 different Asian languages via shortwave. Some programmes are also available via the Internet. The studios of RVA are in Quezon City, Metro Manila; whereas the transmitter site is in Palauig, Zambales, some 230 km north-west of Manila. Major parts of the programmes are produced in the local target areas, wherever this is possible.
