  Arming Europe Against Migrants
  High technology and the military? The EU and African refugees: Almost 70 thousand refugees crossed the Mediterranean last year, either fleeing persecution or in search of a better life. It's not uncommon for boats to capsize during the crossing. More and more EU countries are refusing to offer help. The border protection organization FRONTEX was officially created to assist the national coastguard. But FRONTEX pursues its own ruthless strategies. Refugees from Africa are intercepted and forced to turn back immediately under suspicion of illegal immigration, after days of being at sea.Dutch Onions and EU milk - Senegalese farmers have had enough - For years, the EU has been talking about abolishing export subsidies. But at the start of this year, the EU re-introduced them for dairy products. Subsidized milk from EU countries is now flooding global markets with cheap milk powder. In many poor countries, fresh local produce can't compete with it. Senegalese farmers have had enough. They've joined forces and are using high-profile events like the agricultural fair in the capital Dakar to vent their frustration.Of cranes and containers - The global downturn and the Panama Canal: The Panama Canal is like a highway to globalization. Massive container ships carrying goods and commodities from all over the world line up to pass through it. 24-hour waits are common. The billion-euro project to enlarge the canal was given the go-ahead before the global crisis kicked in. Since then, there's been a downturn in the shipping industry, but nobody seems to be worried. On the contrary, in Panama City you're more likely to hear people say "What crisis?" Tower blocks made of steel and concrete are shooting up like mushrooms. duration 26:25   CC STEREO

  European Journal [#2742]
  Banning The Minaret In Switzerland
  * SWITZERLAND: DEBATE ON THE MINARET BAN - The right-wing populist Swiss People's Party (SVP) hopes to enact a building ban on minarets. In the run-up to the referendum on November 29, the SVP is campaigning with a provocative placard depicting a veiled Muslim woman in front of missile-like minarets casting a shadow on the Swiss flag. According to polls, a majority of Swiss voters oppose the ban. But the 400,000 Muslims living in Switzerland are outraged by the campaign, voicing their protest in online forums. Both the Swiss government and the country's churches are criticizing the SVP's attempt and worried about the potential harm to Switzerland's international reputation.
  * BELGIUM: BRUSSELS, THE CAPITAL OF CRIME - Brussels is not just the capital of the European Union - it's also a center for crime. Officials and members of parliament alike have been robbed and beaten in the middle of the city's European quarter. Criminals know that many people here carry a laptop, a pricy cell-phone and a full wallet. Often, the lawbreakers hail from the city's immigrant neighborhoods, home to 40% of the population in Brussels. 1 out of every 2 young people here is unemployed. The police here are poorly equipped and poorly paid - and feel they're fighting a losing battle.
  * CROATIA: BEWARE OF REAL ESTATE FRAUD - Buying real estate in Croatia seems like an attractive proposition: The country has a good chance of gaining EU membership, which would trigger a surge in property values. Beach houses are currently much cheaper here than in Mallorca, for example. But the lack of legal transparency in Croatia makes buying property there a risky undertaking. Some buyers have wound up with illegal homes, and demolition orders.
  * FRANCE: THE LAST RESIDENTS OF CHAMPS ELYSEES - It's still regarded as one of the most beautiful streets on Earth - the Champs Elysees in Paris. Some 300,000 people stroll along the just 2 kilometer long boulevard each day. But the street's few remaining luxury shops only serve as a photo cliche - low-priced fashion chains and fast-food restaurants have since moved in. Residential buildings have been transformed into office space. Only 5 people are still officially registered as residents of the famed street. Meanwhile, some of the city's homeless have been gathering there for decades. duration 26:28   CC TVRE

  Civil War-Era Submarine/Red Cloud's Pipe/The Edison House
  * Civil War-Era Submarine - In Louisiana's bustling French Quarter sits a surprising remnant of American warfare - a Civil War-era submarine. Salvaged from the depths of a New Orleans lake, the origin of this vessel remains a murky mystery. As a young boy, the New Orleans contributor was fascinated by the presence of the iron-clad vessel and its unknown origin. As an adult, he discovered that one of his ancestors may have helped build this sub, contributing to the advanced military innovations spurred by the Civil War. Will the History Detectives rescue the story of this Louisiana man's ancestor and bring the early history of America's secretive underwater warfare to the surface?
  * Red Cloud's Pipe - In California, a viewer owns an American Indian pipe that family legend suggests was given to her ancestor by the famous warrior Chief Red Cloud. The contributor knows that her great-great-grandfather was the Indian agent who moved the Oglala Lakota to the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Would Chief Red Cloud have given such a gift to a U.S. government official? The quest for the answer takes HD back to the turbulent days of the 1 870s; the team uncovers a battle of wills and political scandal reaching the highest levels of government, reverberating today.
  * The Edison House - A Union, New Jersey, resident has heard a strange story about his home: that it was designed and built by inventor Thomas Edison. But Edison is known for inventing the motion-picture camera, electric lighting and wireless telegraphy, not house construction. History detective and architectural historian Gwen Wright investigates and discovers a surprising story of technological innovation, failed inventions and an approach to housing that was 30 years ahead of its time. duration 55:45   CC STEREO TVG
