GREAT NEWS!
Posted by: Spetrm, 11:53 AM GMT del 20 Gennaio 2012 +1
Starting in the next few month I'll be on the Global TV station NHK world, I'm posting this info here because WU was one of my launching points for me to begin writing weather forecast to the general public, even if only in blog form. Back in 2005-2006 I spent nearly every day on here and made a lot of great friends.

With that said I still have a lot of friends here and even though my time online has waned I still have not forgotten about you.

If you don't have the channel you can get the NHK WORLD APP or look up the website where they stream the news live.

I'll post again when my first casting is. Thanks again everyone!

Rob so proud of you. You worked hard and it has really paid off for you. You are part of my extensive Navy family. I will get the app for my IPad and will watch you when I can. Where is NHK??

NHKWorld
Combines general service broadcasts in English and Japanese, and regional service broadcasts in local languages.


Think I just answered my own question.
