Guatemala City
Guatemala City (, also known colloquially by the nickname Guate), is the Capital city, national capital and largest city of the Guatemala, Republic of Guatemala. It is also the Municipalities of Guatemala, municipal capital of the Guatemala Department and the most populous urban metropolitan area in Central America. The city is located in a mountain valley called Valle de la Ermita () in the south-central part of the country. Guatemala City is the site of the native Maya civilization, Mayan city of Kaminaljuyu in Mesoamerica, which was occupied primarily between 1500 BCE and 1200 CE. The present city was founded by the Spanish after their colonial capital, now called Antigua Guatemala, was destroyed by the devastating 1773 Guatemala earthquake, 1773 Santa Marta earthquake and its aftershocks. It became the third royal capital of the surrounding Captaincy General of Guatemala; which itself was part of the larger Viceroyalty of New Spain in imperial Spanish America and remained und ...

Women Radio Producers
A woman is an adult female human. Before adulthood, a female child or adolescent is referred to as a girl. Typically, women are of the female sex and inherit a pair of X chromosomes, one from each parent, and women with functional uteruses are capable of pregnancy and giving birth from puberty until menopause. More generally, sex differentiation of the female fetus is governed by the lack of a present, or functioning, ''SRY'' gene on either one of the respective sex chromosomes. Female anatomy is distinguished from male anatomy by the female reproductive system, which includes the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, and vulva. An adult woman generally has a wider pelvis, broader hips, and larger breasts than an adult man. These characteristics facilitate childbirth and breastfeeding. Women typically have less facial and other body hair, have a higher body fat composition, and are on average shorter and less muscular than men. Throughout human history, traditional gen ...

Radio Reloj
Radio Reloj (Spanish for ''Radio Clock'') is a government-owned Spanish-language radio station in Cuba. It carries an all-news radio format and is based in Havana. The station is noted for the sound of a ticking clock in the background, with its hosts announcing the time, every minute of broadcast. The station dates back from an era when some Cubans were too poor to own a watch or clock. They could get the time from listening to Radio Reloj (pronounced "Reh-Loh"). Frequencies The station is heard on various AM frequencies throughout the country, with the strongest signals on 570, 790 and 950 kHz. At night, using a good radio, the station can be heard around the Caribbean and Southern United States. The station also broadcasts on several FM frequencies in Cuba, such as 101.5 FM in Havana. Listenership outside of Cuba From its inception in 1947 until the Internet era, Radio Reloj was generally available only to listeners in Cuba. However, on occasion at night when radio waves trav ...
