Venezuela has the largest proven oil reserves in the world. It was once so rich that Concorde used to fly from Caracas to Paris. But in the last three years its economy has collapsed. Hunger has gripped the nation for years. Now, it’s killing people and animals that are dying of starvation. The Venezuelan government knows, but won’t admit it!!! Four in five Venezuelans live in poverty. People queue for hours to buy food. Much of the time they go without. People are also dying from a lack of medicines. Inflation is at 82,766% and there are warnings it could exceed one million per cent by the end of this year. Venezuelans are trying to get out. The UN says 2.3 million people have fled the country - 7% of the population.

Industry News: Funding for Public Radio & Television

The House of Representatives has voted for a Continuing Resolution to fund the government for the remainder of FY 2011. The CR eliminates all federal funding for public broadcasting and many other programs.

The action in the House is the first step in a process that now moves to the US Senate. Differences will be resolved by a conference committee of members of the two chambers.

Senators and representatives will be in their home districts this week while Congress is in recess. Contact them in person or by phone. You can communicate with Members of Congress and receive updates on the status of federal funding for public broadcasting through:

All Americans are diminished by the House's move to strip funding for public broadcast. Members of this group face a major impact on their employment, too.

Please let your representatives in congress know that you care before it's too late.

In order to avoid all the SCAMS, we decide not to publish all the info of the recruter in the job postings. You'll find this info in our Daily Newsletter.
