Our weekly show is broadcast on KBIA-FM, a National Public Radio affiliate in Columbia, Missouri, USA. Additionally, we are associated with the International Press Institute. To listen to past programs or to read the online version of our magazine, please visit our website at http://www.globaljournalist.org. Because the U.N. has declared this year as the International Year of Biodiversity, this week's topic is "the loss of biodiversity--and the ensuing effects." We hope to have guests from the Amazon, Southeast Asia and North America. We also want to include a journalist who can specifically discuss the frog search project, we thought you would be a great candidate in this area. The program will tape on Thursday, August 12, at 9:00 am central time zone. The maximum time required is 35 minutes- five minutes to get all guests on the line and 30 minutes for recording. If you are unable to join the program, would you suggest a colleague who might be able to participate? A prompt reply would be greatly appreciated. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have regarding the program. Thank you! Angela Potrykus Producer, Global Journalist anpgxf@mizzou.edu +1 720-209-2331 Hello Ms. Strickland,
