    AM (Medium Wave) and Shortwave Radio in Ukraine

    NEXUS International Broadcasting Association NEXUS International Broadcasting Association Beyond Global WavesNEXUS-IBA, an independent international media network, is increasing its broadcasting efforts to Ukraine and surrounding areas in response to the ongoing conflict. The organisation is utilising AM (Medium Wave) and Shortwave radio frequencies to reach a wider audience, particularly those who may have lost access to local AM and FM radio due to the conflict. Their mission is to provide balanced news and information, offering empathy and hope to those affected by the war. NEXUS-IBA emphasises the importance of providing unbiased news and information, especially in the face of disinformation and propaganda. They believe that Shortwave radio is a particularly effective tool in conflict zones due to its long-distance reach, power efficiency, and resilience against jamming. They are actively seeking donations to support their efforts in delivering crucial information to those affected by the conflict in Ukraine and other conflict zones around the world.

    Radio Rasant

    NEXUS International Broadcasting Association NEXUS International Broadcasting Association Beyond Global WavesRadio Rasant was an ambitious project at the Realschule in Sundern (Germany) from 2000 until mid 2019, managed by a school teacher named Reinhard Marx, that provided a platform for students to develop journalistic and technical skills while engaging with important social issues. The students tackled a wide range of subjects, producing programmes on drug awareness, cultural identity, and the introduction of the Euro. Their collaboration with UNICEF allowed them to create broadcasts focusing on children’s rights and global youth issues. The success of Radio Rasant led to a partnership with NEXUS-IBA and the Italian Radio Relay Service (IRRS), which allowed them to broadcast internationally to Europe, parts of Africa, the Middle East, and even Australia and the Americas. This international collaboration gave students the opportunity to engage with global themes, conduct interviews in multiple languages, and address topics that resonated with a wider audience.

    The Nativity Scene vs. the Christmas Tree: Unpacking the Meaning Behind Christmas Symbols

    NEXUS International Broadcasting Association NEXUS International Broadcasting Association Beyond Global WavesAs the Christmas season unfolds, two beloved symbols - the nativity scene and the Christmas tree - stand out, each with its unique origins and meanings. The nativity scene, introduced by Saint Francis of Assisi in 13th-century Italy, brings the story of Jesus’ humble birth in Bethlehem to life, inviting reflection on God’s love and the simplicity of Christ’s beginnings. In contrast, the Christmas tree, rooted in 16th-century German traditions, blends ancient symbols of eternal life with Christian hope, its evergreen branches serving as a reminder of renewal and resilience. Both symbols have evolved over time, shaped by cultural and historical contexts. The nativity scene spread from Italy to homes and churches worldwide, while the Christmas tree gained widespread appeal after Queen Victoria and Prince Albert popularized it in 19th-century Britain. Together, these traditions enrich the season, inspiring joy, hope, and a deeper connection to the heart of Christmas.

    The Open-Source Crisis

    NEXUS International Broadcasting Association NEXUS International Broadcasting Association Beyond Global WavesThe dispute between WordPress and hosting provider WP Engine has sparked a significant debate about the sustainability and ethics of open-source software. WordPress co-creator Matt Mullenweg accuses WP Engine of profiting from the WordPress ecosystem without adequately contributing to its open-source foundation, demanding they allocate 8% of their revenue to the WordPress Foundation. This clash underscores the fragile balance within open-source models between fostering free access and ensuring financial sustainability. The conflict highlights broader risks, such as undermining trust in open source and increasing reliance on proprietary software, which could restrict innovation and limit access to information. The outcome of this dispute is expected to set a precedent for resolving similar tensions in the open-source community, shaping its future and its role in promoting freedom of information online.

    The Controversial Radio Ministry of Brother R. G. Stair

    NEXUS International Broadcasting Association NEXUS International Broadcasting Association Beyond Global WavesBrother Stair, born Ralph Gordon Stair, established the Overcomer Ministry in 1978 and declared himself a prophet. At its peak, Stair's radio broadcasts reached 120 stations, promoting his fringe Christian beliefs, which included rejecting modern technology and medicine, and propagating conspiracy theories like the New World Order. His ministry, operating from a compound in Walterboro, South Carolina, attracted approximately 70 followers who surrendered all their possessions and lived a life of self-sufficiency under his control. Stair's teachings centred on millennial predictions and warnings of divine judgement. Despite facing multiple arrests for sexual assault and related charges, Stair consistently resumed broadcasting after each legal setback. Although he passed away in 2021, Stair's sermons continue to be aired on numerous radio stations, funded by the donations of his followers. The Overcomer Ministry has been accused of being a cult due to Stair's dominance over his followers' lives, insistence on financial contributions, and the deaths of infants within the community, potentially linked to his rejection of medical care.

    Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday: Feasts, Shopping Frenzies, and Digital Deals

    NEXUS International Broadcasting Association NEXUS International Broadcasting Association Beyond Global WavesThanksgiving, celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, is one of the most cherished holidays in the United States and marks the start of the holiday season. Rooted in the Pilgrims' 1621 harvest feast, it became a national holiday in 1863 under President Lincoln. Families come together to share a traditional meal of roast turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie while enjoying festivities like the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and American football games. A unique tradition is the Presidential Turkey Pardon, where one lucky bird is spared from the dinner table - a custom that gained prominence under President George H.W. Bush in 1989. The day after Thanksgiving is Black Friday, a global shopping phenomenon that originated in 1960s Philadelphia, where police coined the term to describe the chaos caused by swarms of shoppers and traffic jams. Now synonymous with steep discounts, Black Friday has expanded internationally, with countries like the UK, Brazil, and India embracing the shopping frenzy. For online deals, Cyber Monday, launched in 2005, offers major e-commerce discounts on electronics, fashion, and more, making it a global event alongside similar traditions like China’s Singles’ Day and India’s Diwali shopping season.

    Is Bluesky the New Twitter? The Great Social Media Shift

    NEXUS International Broadcasting Association NEXUS International Broadcasting Association Beyond Global WavesThe increase in Bluesky's user base is largely attributed to the shift in X's policies and perceived political bias under Elon Musk's leadership, which has driven users, especially those with left-leaning political views, towards platforms offering a more trustworthy and user-centric experience. X's policy changes, including alterations to content moderation and the use of user data for AI training, have fuelled concerns about user safety and privacy. Moreover, Musk's vocal support for Donald Trump and the platform's perceived leniency towards right-wing content have further alienated left-leaning users, prompting them to seek alternatives like Bluesky, which has gained a reputation for its stricter moderation standards, commitment to a harassment-free environment, and transparency in handling user data.
