------------------
Ed,
         Scola is now offering some limited broadcasts of Al-Jaszeera's half-hour evening news hour.  If you have Scola, check there.
         Here's an interesting note:  I recalled from an NPR story last weekend a mention that Al-Jazeera was streaming live, so yesrterday I tried to check their websites in English and Arabic.  I couldn't find streaming at their new, temporary, English-language website, (the previous one having been pulled down after hackers attacked it) but found a video button at the Arabic site.  However, on two different Internet connections (school and broadband at home), the video never appeared.  Perhaps that is temporary, too.
