Help Support the Montauk Surf Museum!
The Montauk Surf Museum needs our support!
The mission of the Montauk Surf Museum, formally known as the Oceans Institute of the Montauk Historical Society, is to tell the story of how Montauk, N.Y. came to be one of the foremost surfing destinations on the East Coast. Surfing, yes, but we aim to reach beneath the waves and along the coast to explain how sea-level rise and erosion are shaping our future.

Metallic Ticking noise coming from engine?

I'd appreciate second opinions on this.
My BMW mechanic replaced my lifters many months back after I heard the same metallic ticking heard in the video below. The noise then went away. It eventually came back though. I don't hear it often, but it is the same metallic ticking sound I heard before my lifters were replaced.
The same BMW mechanic tells me I don't have to do anything about it this time around. He says there is no danger to my car because the sound comes from an air pocket (I don't drive much, so the mechanic says that makes the occurrence of an air pocket, and hence the sound, more likely). The mechanic says he can replace the lifters again, and if he does so, he'll also replace the rocker arms and give me a new valve cover gasket (he has never replaced either of those latter parts).
My car is no longer under warranty. The repair cost isn't prohibitive, but isn't dirt cheap either. Is this something I should definitely replace right away because it poses a danger to my car? And if I have these three things replaced, what is the confidence level that this issue will be finally resolved? Or, are these repairs unnecessary, assuming I can live with the intermittent ticking noise?

Report Roundup
Math and Science
A new report highlights different strategies being taken by teacher education programs to train mathematics and science teachers, addressing a topic that has become a prime focus of elected officials and educators across the country.
The document, produced by the Washington-based American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education, provides descriptions of 50 teacher-education programs around the country. Although the report does not identify any single program or approach as most effective in swelling the ranks of math and science teachers, it says that more institutions are establishing stronger ties between colleges of education, which focus on teacher preparation, and academic programs, which are devoted to training undergraduates in specific academic subjects.
Barriers between those academic departments sometimes prevent talented math and science undergraduates from considering teaching careers, advocates for improved teaching have argued. Those intrauniversity divides also make it more difficult for aspiring teachers to obtain vital content knowl-edge in math and science before entering the classroom, some say.

Child lives with her mother. Child is not in school or attends college
Most emancipated (self-supporting) 19 year-olds don't live with mom. Thus, it is unlikely that your child would be deemed emancipated at this time. In New York, child support is payable until age 21, unless the child is sooner emancipated. If you're not sure whether your child is emancipated, I suggest you consult with a local attorney for more information and specific advice. Good luck!
The issue on emancipation is not merely whether the child works - even full-time. The issue is whether the child, by virtue of her employment, is completely self-supporting. If the child is at all dependent, then emancipation is an unlikely ruling. That said, it's worth it to schedule a follow-up consultation with a NYC Child Support lawyer.
You could file a petition to terminate child support in the Family Court, however you would be obligated to prove that your child was self-supporting through full-time employment. The age of emancipation is 21, not 18. If a parent wants to terminate support prior to the child reaching the age of 21, the parent must prove emancipation which in New York is defined as getting married, joining the military, reaching the age of 21 or working and earning enough money to be self-sufficient. You might consider speaking to the child's mother concerning your desire to terminate support. If she doesn't agree to terminate, she might agree to accept a lower amount of support for the next two years.
Good luck.
Do you have a current support order? Typically it would dictate when your support payments should stop for example age of 18 years old and graduates from high school. Review your current orders and consult with a family law attorney in your area to determine if you should still be paying any support since the child is now an adult at the age of 19 years and is no longer in school.

treating a yeast infection in EP??
Find a Conversation

I am going CRAZY with the worse yeast infection I have ever had in my entire life!!!
|Mon, 03-09-2009 - 11:03pm
Hi Kim,
I did post on your other thread but thought I would answer you directly on this one. I think that your OB is incorrect here - dare I say it. I had a terrible yeast infection with my son and then a mild case with this pregnancy. My Dr. and OB told me that the risks outweigh the benefits - I mean, you can't suffer for months with it - you will go mad. I would call and beg him to reconsider. See link:
Inserting yogurt or acidophilus should be safe, but I'm telling you it won't cure it.
OK, if your Dr. won't agree to giving you the cream, the only other thing that I know will help is to eliminate sugar from your diet as this is what the yeast lives off of. Also, refined foods with yeast. You can also try sitz baths in baking soda. This will help with the itching, but again not a cure.
Anyway, I feel your pain. I hope you feel better soon.

The 'DCT' bit of Honda's new VFR1200F stands for 'Ducal Clutch Transmission', Honda's name for it's all-new, clutchless, semi-automatic transmission system which is so different it warrants a review all its own, and so impressive and revolutionary it heralds the start of an all-new technical era.
1255cc, 96bhp, 145mph, Insurance group 14
While the rest of the motorcycle industry struggles with inflated pricing, Suzuki is offering the 1250cc, full-faired all-rounder GSX1250F for less than £7k. That's partly because mechanically it's almost entirely a Bandit 1250SA – but the fairing and accessories list make it more useful and sportier looking.
997cc, 118bhp, 156mph, Insurance group 15
The Aprilia SL1000 Falco is a generally well-regarded, half-faired, 'street sports' version of RSV which never quite took off in the way it could have. Unique twin beam frame and slightly detuned V-twin made it more streetable, although still very much a sportster. The Aprilia Falco is often overlooked so is a potential used bargain.

Overlooked by many but those who've ridden them know how good they can be. The Kawasaki ZZ-R600 is an unlikely nutter bike but, on speed alone, it's up there in the upper echelons of the "bikes that can get you nicked in second gear" category. Roomy and comfortable, the Kawasaki ZZ-R600 is practical, too, and you can pick them up ...

The Honda VTR1000F Firestorm is a brilliant all-rounder with few foibles: you'd be hard pushed not to have a ball on it. Regular refuelling's a drag but better on post-01 Honda VTR1000F Firestorms, when capacity went from 16 to 19 litres, but it's still thirsty. The Honda VTR1000F Firestorm has wonderful pull when you open it up in the midrange ...

It's not often that you get quality and style along with 'budget'. But Suzuki delivered just that when it produced the RF900R in the late 90s. A sporty sports-tourer, the Suzuki RF900R delivered plenty of punch, decent handling, comfortable versatility and, er, odd styling. Old hat today, but the Suzuki RF900R is still excellent value.
599cc, 95bhp, 135mph, Insurance group 12
In many ways the older Yamaha FZS600 Fazer is better than the new model; much more midrange oomph, better weather protection, more upright riding position. But it does look kinda 80s disco from some angles and it's also a bit greedy on fuel. Otherwise, teh Yamaha FZS600 Fazer is a versatile all-rounder with great brakes and a reliable motor.
749cc, 100bhp, 152mph, Insurance group 14
For many, bike journalists included, the best road bike ever built. In 1994 Honda revised an already exceptional motorcycle, giving it super-model looks while still retaining those quintessential VFR qualities of legendary reliability, consistent performance and supreme comfort. The bodywork become less angular and gained Ferrari-esque louvres on its side panels.
955cc, 118bhp, 155mph, Insurance group 14
Superb British all rounder Triumph Sprint ST pipped Honda's VFR800 simply by using a straight bat when the VFR tried all kinds of trick but ultimately unnecessary technology. Plus the Triumph Sprint ST undercuts the VFR on price too. Superb all-round sports tourer with a grunty three cylinder engine that makes it anything but bland.
955cc, 118bhp, 154mph, Insurance group 14
Never a big seller when new but the Triumph Sprint RS can be a real bargain on the used market. Sporty sports tourer with Triumph's powerful, mellifluous three cylinder engine. The Triumph Sprint RS is similar to the better selling Sprint ST but with a cheaper and lighter conventional swingarm, less plastic, firmer suspension, sharper geometry and a different exhaust.

Ten days in silence at a meditation retreat changed my life
Lena Vazifdar: The day I signed up for a silent meditation retreat, I had no idea what I was getting into. The first day, I piled into a red sedan in San Francisco with a 40-year-old hippie in a Hawaiian shirt, a 20-something product developer from India and a straight-faced, vegetarian Indian woman who had been meditating for years. I thought I was about to embark on a great adventure, but little did I know I was beginning the hardest ten days of my life.

Ten days without talking
Was it possible to survive 10 days of meditating in an Indian retreat without speaking, reading or making eye-contact with fellow guests?
I am sitting cross-legged on the floor in a large hall, surrounded by strangers. Sweat is running down my face, and my thighs are bleating in agony. I'm trying to meditate but my mind keeps calculating how long I've been here (about five hours) and how long there is to go (about another 100).
It is the first day of my silent retreat in Gujarat, India. I am not allowed to talk throughout the 10 days. In fact, I am not allowed to do much at all: I can't make eye contact with my fellow meditators, or read, write, listen …

At end-of-the line prison, an unlikely escape
Deep in the Bible Belt, an ancient Eastern practice is taking root in the unlikeliest of places: Alabama's highest security prison.
Behind a double electric fence and layers of locked doorways, Alabama's most violent and mentally unstable prisoners are incarcerated in the William E. Donaldson Correctional Facility outside Birmingham. Many of them are here to stay. The prison has 24 death row cells, and about a third of the approximately 1,500 prisoners are lifers with no chance of parole.
"You're dealing with the worst offenses that have been committed by humans in the state of Alabama," says Gary Hetzel, the warden at Donaldson.

"Vipassana – the Musical" inspired by author's experience of silent meditation
Kaki Hunter is no stranger to success. Her background includes a career as a successful film actress, a published author and a recognized guru in sustainable building.
Two years ago, however, despite all of her success, Hunter says she found herself miserable and at what she describes as, "an extremely low point in life emotionally, spiritually and physically."
After hearing about friends' experiences with Vipassana, a 2,500-year-old silent meditation technique designed to eradicate human suffering, Hunter decided to enroll in a 10-day retreat.
The program required all participants to abstain from all communication, including talking, eye contact, writing, music, and reading. As Hunter entered into "noble silence" and …

Bangladesh to introduce meditation in prisons
Bangladesh has introduced a meditation course for its jail inmates with prison officials saying the pioneering work at India's Tihar jail prompted them to launch the service to reform prisoners.

Breathe in, breathe out, fall in love
A New York Times article about the phenomenon of "Vipassana Romance" (falling in love on retreat):
At that point in my life I had never attempted a full day of meditation. I was chain-smoking my way through a series of boyfriends because I had no idea how to be alone. I hated the cold spot in the bed and the empty hangers that rattled in the closet. Which is why I started meditating. I thought I'd try wading into loneliness the way you enter the sea, easing myself into the bone-chilling cold a bit at a time — first toes, then calves, then legs.
Today would be the first time I'd plunge in all the way. I was terrified. But after meditating

Teacher who helped shape American Buddhism is still on a quest
Jack Kornfield says 'we're teaching meditation not as a religious activity but as a support for living a wise and healthy and compassionate inner life.'
In 1972, Jack Kornfield stepped off a plane in Washington, D.C., his head shaved and his body swathed in golden robes. He had come home to see if he could make it as a monk in America.
Kornfield had spent several contemplative years at a Buddhist monastery in Thailand, where he lived with few possessions, followed a strict monastic code and retreated each day to the lush forest for hours of meditation.
But in the U.S., he found no monasteries that practiced the Vipassana meditation he …

The Centrality of Impermanence
If there is just one thing you should learn about this world, anicca is it. It may be an exaggeration to say that anicca, or impermanence, is the core of the Buddha's teaching, but when we look closely at this single idea, the whole of the Buddha's teaching begins to open up.
In Buddhism, impermanence is one of the three "marks" of existence, along with dukkha and anattā, or unsatisfactoriness and no-self. Together, these three marks form the core of a Buddhist conception of reality. Understanding this reality is often described as tantamount to awakening.
Indeed, in Vipassanā meditation we are taught to note, or to simply direct the mind to …

In our last OTG, or hybrid flash drive, review of the UD320 from ADATA, I commented how I would like to have a little more write performance for transferring movies to the drive for viewing on my phone. Leef may just have the solution to this with their offering, the Bridge 3.0
The Bridge 3.0 from Leef is not like the standard OTG flash drives. While most use a basic USB 2.0 connection, this new drive utilizes USB 3.0 connectivity on the full connector and USB 2.0 for the OTG setup. The drive is designed as a slider but not in the conventional manner. With the Bridge 3.0, we have what I like to call an open face design.
Compatibility of the Bridge 3.0 extends to modern Windows operating systems and OS X. Leef manages a list of supported Android devices on their website. MSRP of the 16GB Bridge 3.0 is set at $19.99 with a five-year warranty.
The Leef Bridge 3.0 carries branding on the backside of the drive.
On the top of the drive, you can see the open faced sliding design. The center button controls the locking and unlocking of the sliding mechanism.
Above, you can see the USB 3.0 port of the Bridge 3.0.
The Leef Bridge 3.0 is factory formatted with the FAT32 file-system. Usable capacity after formatting is 14.9GB.
Above, we have our results from testing. Here the Bridge 3.0 came in at 82MB/s read and 11MB/s write.
When I first read about the Leef Bridge 3.0, I was really surprised to see them include USB 3.0 support in a hybrid solution. This is something I was truly excited about, but, after testing, I find myself slightly disappointed to find that write speeds were pretty dismal at best.
The issue with OTG drives is they have terribly slow write speeds that lead to longer waits when loading files to take with you on the go. For me, I could care less how fast my Android phone can read the files as long as it's capable of playing video.
This leads me to build quality, where again Leef continues to surprise me with their unique designs. I really enjoy the quality of the device itself; the sliding mechanism felt very solid and locked into place, so there was no movement when plugging in into my PC.
MSRP of the 16GB Leef Bridge 3.0 comes in at $19.99 with a five-year warranty. Current market pricing can be found below.
PRICING: You can find the Leef Bridge 2.0 (NOT 3.0) for sale below. The prices listed are valid at the time of writing, but can change at any time. Click the link to see the very latest pricing for the best deal.

Breastmilk or formula should be your child's sole nutritional source for about the first six months, and the major source of nutrition throughout the first twelve months. During this time, you and your pediatrician will need to pay attention to her pattern of feedings and make sure that she's getting enough for growth.
How will you survive your twins' first weeks of life? Well, the good news is that newborns sleep a lot. Eating and sleeping are the 2 main concerns of any newborn baby. The key to your survival is to make sure that your twins start sleeping at the same time!

Given up on Outlook 2013
Hi there
I usually try out stuff for quite a while - but OUTLOOK 2013 is a DISASTER -- create a new folder but I can't copy stuff to local folders --it says Inbox with say 20 emails in it but clicking on the email it's EMPTY. !! Stuff stays in a new folder in the IMAP folder - not in a LOCAL FOLDER.
All these new software packages seem to do is assume you are 100% connected to the Net -- sometimes even if you are you might want to access and peruse emails while you are OFFLINE.
Also you can't uncheck the box Test email account when creating a new email account - so if you aren't online the system FAILS. I'm using IMAP for my email.
BAD ONE Ms - probably the quickest piece of Software I've ever REMOVED from a system. What was wrong with building on the EXCELLENT Office 2010 -- now re-installed.
I used to think Ms Office was one of the best packages out there --Office 2010 obviously is the Pinnacle --it's all DOWNHILL from now on in -- and don't even get me started on the subscription models of Office 365.
It's now GONE -- Office 2010 re-installed --happy camper again.

Hi there
Now also running it on a Windows 8.1 VM on an external SSD (I've created a Linux system totally bootable from an SSD - doesn't use HOST Disks at all to boot etc and run the W8.1 system under VMware workstation / player for Linux) Runs fine on the SSD so now it doesn't matter wherever I am as I.ve got now a totally portable Windows system which runs on most laptops -- being a VM the image rarely requires activation as the Virtual hardware is usually constant.
I wonder if a Poll would show the most popular office versions --I'm sure it would be 2010 followed closely by 2007. 2013 definitely gets thumbs down in a lot of cases

I am using Office 2013 Pro & I have not experienced any problems, with any of the programs.
What really is the difference between Outlook in Office 2010 & Outlook in Office 2013?. I thought they were virtually the same with just an update here & there, but I can't speak with any comparison experience as I have not used Office 2010.

no they have a bunch of differences, you can upload to skydrive Pro or reg easier right from the program
You can bring in a pdf, make changes to it and re save it as a pdf
Bringing in Pictures is a lot easier
Granted Office 2013 has a lot of quirks in it also that is why jim is tearing his hair out
If you have no patience for this program you will not do well with it- like my husband who is on office 2010, no way I am upgrading him.
I use Office 2013 on two computers and I installed Avery Label maker which I have on my office 2010- on office 2010 it had no problems at all. On the other hand, on office 2013 it totally locked up Office 2013 made it a mess and I had to uninstall the program and manually take out the Avery addons,
When I reinstalled office 2013 pro it now told me that my license was invalid, duh and my login and password to Microsoft where I have it sitting was incorrect. Go on the website I logged into the site fine, sat on the phone with Microsoft 2hours- they had no clue either so they gave me another key to put in which worked- go figure. I never had this problem when I installed office 2010
but actually I like 2013 better even with all its quirks.

Check showtimes to see when Amanpour is on CNN where you are. Or watch online.
By Madalena Araujo, CNN
It is time for the Obama Administration to improve the long-strained relations with Cuba, Ernesto Londoño, a member of the New York Times' editorial board, told CNN's Christiane Amanpour in an interview that aired Thursday.
"I think we've entered a new era and I think the months ahead represent an opportunity for the Obama Administration to take a pretty bold move and to move this relationship in a direction that I think the president himself has long wanted to take it."
The New York Times, arguably America's most important newspaper, has taken a very public stand calling for the end of the decades-old economic blockade of Cuba.
"I think reforms in Cuba and the political landscape in the United States offer the right conditions for this relationship to move on a healthier trajectory, for the two countries, for instance, to think about resuming formal diplomatic relations."
Londoño joined Amanpour from the Cuban capital Havana, following a series of editorials Cuba-focussed editorial in the paper. The more than 50-year embargo was a Cold War measure implemented by the U.S. in 1960 when Fidel Castro, a friend of the then-Soviet Union, came to power.
Londoño said the paper had always seen the policy, which restricts travel and bans trade, "as a failed policy."
"The purpose of the policy we've pursued for 50 years, the purpose has been to try to undermine and bring about democratic change in Cuba through punitive measures. We have five decades of evidence that that policy does not work."
So how would the U.S. benefit from changing its attitude towards Cuba apart from, if ultimately successful, bringing about democratic change?
"There's a number of things," Londoño said. "Perhaps most importantly the United States has found itself diplomatically very isolated in the hemisphere. Cuba keeps coming up in any number of issues that they want to engage on with countries such as Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, Central America."
"Every time there's a diplomatic forum, every time there's a regional effort underway, a lot of these - a lot of these countries are telling the United States we disagree vehemently with your policy in Cuba and Cuba becomes the thorn that stymies many things the U.S. would like to try to do."
The journalist told Amanpour that "the Cuban government has undertaken a number of really significant economic reforms. There is a small and limited private sector that is cropping up."
"And for the first time in a very long time, it's given Cubans an opportunity to start building livelihoods that are somewhat separate from the state, where the state does not have absolute control over their livelihoods."
Londoño, who is in Cuba for the first time in ten years writing and researching the editorials, said he also notices a "far less vitriolic rhetoric from the Cuban government, from the Cuban state media toward the United States."
"We've stopped seeing the kind of demonstrations in front of the U.S. diplomatic mission here. So I think they've sent an unmistakable signal that they want to turn a new page."
It has been a horrific year for journalists.
As long as reporters have done their work, people have tried to stop them from doing it; but the dangers of the profession have been especially apparent this year.
In Iraq and Syria, the Muslim extremist group ISIS has captured and executed journalists in horrific fashion, starting with the beheading of James Foley.
The Committee to Protect Journalists says that 42 journalists have been killed this year alone; last year, 211 were jailed.
Every year, that same organization puts a spotlight on those who, as the Czech leader Vaclav Havel said, strive for "living in truth."
CNN's Christiane Amanpour, who hosted this year's awards ceremony on Tuesday, spoke this week with two of the honorees – Mikhail Zygar, a Russian journalist struggling to keep the country's only intendant TV news station on the air, and Siamak Ghaderi, who served four years in an Iranian prison and received 60 lashes for his work.

President Obama's new action on immigration will provide "real relief" for millions of families who are just trying to find "a better life," Bishop Eusebio Elizondo, Chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops Committee, told CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Wednesday.
"I am very welcoming… [of] his move, his action, of course, because [it] will benefit at least five million people to really legalize their statuses here, and especially for all those adults who have already children, U.S. citizens born here."
"And so it will be great for them to have a legal status and work here normally. And for them it's a real relief."
Last week, through an executive order, the U.S. President announced that he intends to grant large numbers of undocumented immigrants protection from deportation; The Migration Policy Institute estimates that more than five million people could be protected.

The grand jury decision not to indict police officer Darren Wilson over the death of an unarmed black teenager Michael Brown has angered many Americans, who feel that equal justice under the country's law system is failing.
So is that the case? CNN's Christiane Amanpour put the question on Tuesday to Vincent Warren, Executive Director of the Center for Constitutional Rights, and to CNN's Senior Legal Analyst and Former Prosecutor Jeffrey Toobin.
They started by looking into how prosecutor Robert McCulloch handled the investigation into Brown's death, which sparked protests in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson in August. The demonstrations have since spread across the country.
"I would draw a distinction between the process and the result. I actually think the result – no charges – is defensive, but I don't think the process he [McCulloch] followed was appropriate," Toobin told Amanpour.
"The best thing the criminal justice system can do is treat everyone the same, and the process the prosecutor used, using a grand jury, which is rarely used in any kind of setting and throwing all the evidence, rather than a selection of it before the grand jury almost seemed to dictate the result, which was an exoneration."
Fighting for equality can lead to a death sentence, but this week it also led to recognition.
Michael Schwerner, James Chaney, Andrew Goodman - who were murdered by the Ku Klux Klan in 1964 - were honored this week by President Barack Obama with America's highest civilian honor, the Medal of Freedom.
Christiane Amanpour has the story.
By Madalena Araujo, CNN
Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan's sexist remarks serve to reinforce discrimination against women, Turkish parliament member Binnaz Toprak told CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday.
Erdogan triggered a storm of criticism on Monday when he said at a summit hosted by a women's group in Istanbul that women and men are not equal "because their nature is different."
Toprak, a member of parliament from Turkey's main opposition Republican People's Party, started by saying that "I think … what he means by this, that men and women are not equal, is physical equality."
But the Turkish MP went on to explain that when one says "gender equality, the principle has to do with legal equality and equal opportunities and legal rights."
"So I think even if he [President Erdogan] says that it has to do with legality, I think the very statement that men and women are not equal reinforces prejudices against women, reinforces men's ideas that women are not equal and cannot ever be equal and so on in a country where quite a number of people have conservative views on this issue."
Imagine a world where Europe has become the sick and beleaguered grandmother of the world.
It's the world we have now according to Pope Francis, who warned that the continent is "slowly losing its soul." Christiane Amanpour has the story.
By Madalena Araujo, CNN
St. Louis rapper Tef Poe told CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday that he has "come to terms with the fact that in the United States of America it is perfectly legal for police officers to murder people of color."
Poe's comments come as Americans have taken to the streets across the country to voice their frustration at a grand jury decision not to indict the police officer who shot dead an unarmed black 18-year-old in August.
The idea that a police office can kill someone without accountability is something "we're coping with and that's the reality that we live in."
"There is no justice when you are murdered by a police officer when you are a person of color – that is a harsh fact to embrace and accept in today's time."
Poe, who is calling for justice for Michael Brown and for "every victim of police brutality," said today was "a very emotional day" for the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson.
He told Amanpour that, in his opinion, teenager Michael Brown was "murdered because [officer] Darren Wilson feared his black skin."
Peter Greste has been in an Egyptian jail since he was arrested along with two other al Jazeera journalists in December 2013.
In June, he, Mohamed Fahmy and Baher Mohamed were sentenced to seven years behind bars after being convicted of aiding the Muslim Brotherhood, which the Egyptian government now considers a terrorist organization. They steadfastly refuted the charges.
Last week, the prospect that they could be released from prison was raised when President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi told France 24 that he was considering a pardon for the journalists.
On the heels of that news, Greste's grieving parents sent this statement exclusively to CNN's Christiane Amanpour:
We welcome any news and changes of attitude that might lead to Peter being released from prison. However, there is uncertainty and lack of clarity in the latest laws relating to foreign prisoner repatriation. Therefore, we are patiently moderating our expectations.
Nevertheless, two things are very clear.
1. Peter has been punished for merely practicing good and responsible journalism. He has not wronged anyone. None of his stories has been discredited. There is no credible evidence against him.
2. Peter was not, will not nor can be a threat to Egypt's security or national interest. He was in Cairo for a three week appointment. He has no vested interest in Egyptian politics. He did not speak any Arabic. He is not a Moslem. He did not know his work colleagues prior to his arrival.
A side note – Amanpour will be hosting the 2014 International Press Freedom Awards, presented by the Committee to Protect Journalists. You can view their work here.

Scandal-hit FIFA acts as "a power unto itself" and as if it is accountable to no one, a former anti-corruption adviser to the organization told CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Monday.
The governing body of world football has found itself embroiled in controversy amid charges of corruption and bribery in the bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, which were awarded to Russia and Qatar.
"It certainly appears to the public that FIFA is a power unto itself and that it proceeds without any real regard to the reputational damage that it's suffering. And it seems answerable, really, to no one. It doesn't seem to respond to an extraordinary, enormously negative response from the fans.
"Very, very slow start from sponsors and the Swiss government doesn't seem to be exercising much oversight. So really, a power unto themselves," Alexandra Wrage said.
Wrage was a member of FIFA's Independent Governance Committee (IGC), which was organized to make recommendations to improve FIFA's governance. She resigned in April last year in protest against what she described as FIFA's resistance to reform.

I like Sandra Bullock. I think that she is a friendly and funny person. I like the roles she picks, but somehow I have this thing that all or almost Sandra's movies are cute and romantic.

Sorita d'Este
|Sorita d'Este
26 November 1974
Cape Town, South Africa
|Priestess and author
Sorita d'Este was born in Cape Town, South Africa in the 1970s. She is an author, folklorist, occult researcher and prominent teacher and high priestess of Wicca,[1] being an initiate of the Alexandrian Craft tradition founded by Maxine Sanders and Alex Sanders in the 1960s. She is also a leading authority in the Goddess spirituality[2] and the author of 18 books.[3] Sorita currently resides in Glastonbury, England, from where she continues to run her independent publishing company Avalonia, named after the town's mythical origins as the isle of Avalon.
She is the founder of The Covenant of Hekate,[4] an international organisation dedicated to The Goddess Hekate as The Cosmic World Soul.[5] She lit a flame on behalf of The Covenant of Hekate at the multifaith Glastonbury 2012 Harmony and Healing event held at the Chalice Well Gardens, Glastonbury on 21 April 2012.[6] The Covenant of Hekate organised The Hekate Triformis Symposium[7] which took place in Glastonbury 2012 and again in June 2013.
In September 2013, she was named as one of The Wisdom Keepers of The Goddess Spirituality Movement by SageWoman Magazine, recognising her work as an author, but also as a folklorist and priestess.[8]
She is described by the journalist and psychic celebrity Inbaal in an article which appeared in Alternative London Magazine (2004), saying that "...you're struck by her dimples and long limbs, her exotic beauty. Feast them again, having heard she's a Wiccan High Priestess, a lecturer on Witchcraft and The Occult and a full-time writer and researcher, and you're struck by how very normal she is".[9]
In 2010, she facilitated an international ceremony to The Goddess Hekate, The Rite of Her Sacred Fires,[10] in which several thousand individuals participated.[11] The Rite of Her Sacred Fires is now a yearly celebration which takes place annually in celebration of unity and mysticism between those who honour the liminal torchbearing Goddess,[12] and is available in more than twenty languages.[13][14]
The Reverend Mark Townsend, in his book "Jesus Through Pagan Eyes", includes an interview with Sorita.[15] In it, she describes Jesus as "...a man who reached a state of enlightenment and then sought to share the vision of perfection He had experienced...".[16] Her work often crosses the boundaries of tradition, Pagan and Christian, Buddhist and Gnostic. In March 2013., The Somerset Gazette reported that Sorita was to lecture at the Abbey House retreat centre in Glastonbury, giving the first of a series of talks on spirituality in Glastonbury organised by the Friends of the Abbey House on her experiences as a Wiccan High Priestess and the founder of the Covenant of Hekate.[17] In an interview with the TWPT (The Wiccan and Pagan Times), in 2012., Sorita stated that "God doesn't belong to a religion. I have a very strong adherence to this simple truth, no church or synagogue or coven or temple can 'own' God! Rather, I believe that all good religious traditions are united in their search for an understanding and experience of God, or 'The Divine'".[18]
Sorita is a regular speaker at Witchfest International,[19] Pagan Federation and other esoteric and religious related events in the United Kingdom, including The Glastonbury Goddess Conference.[20] She has been featured on the BBC, The Guardian Newspaper, Sunday Times, WitchTalk.[21] Aeon Byte (Gnostic Radio) and The Discovery Channel.

VIDEO: Sneak Peek - Things Go Badly Amiss On DOWNTON ABBEY Ep. 5
On the next episode of PBS's DOWNTON ABBEY, things go badly amiss as Robert and Cora are not speaking. The servants are shunning Matthew's mother Isobel. And Matthew and Robert have fallen out. Also, Bates takes a gamble. Below, watch an exclusive scene from Episode 5 premiering February 3rd on PBS.
About DOWNTON ABBEY:
The much-loved cast of Downton Abbey Season 3 includes Maggie Smith, Elizabeth McGovern, Hugh Bonneville, Dan Stevens, Michelle Dockery, Jim Carter, Penelope Wilton, and a host of others. Written and created by Julian Fellowes, Downton Abbey, Season 3 marks the return of one of television's most beloved and anticipated drama series to Masterpiece on PBS.
Downton Abbey has weathered the war, and the prospect of an impending wedding for Mary and Matthew brings great anticipation, as well as Cora's mother from America, Martha Levinson. New World and Old World are about to clash as Martha tests tradition at Downton, and the patience of the formidable Lady Violet.
Aside from the sparks upstairs, a very real crisis threatens the foundation and future of Downton. Great houses have been crippled psychologically and financially in the wake of World War I, and Downton may not be exempt. In response, Robert clings decisively to his duty to maintain the home at all costs. But in this changing landscape, nothing is assured, and even the Crawleys may be faced with a new battle to safeguard their beloved Downton.
Amidst sweeping social change, budding romances and surprising betrayals, Downton Abbey returns with a riveting third season starring Maggie Smith, Hugh Bonneville, Elizabeth McGovern, Shirley MacLaine and the rest of stellar cast in the award-winning series from Julian Fellowes.

All of the 3,580 known sex offenders that have been banned from the services were located in New York, with Attorney General Eric Schneidman stated that the move was aimed to "block sex offenders from using gaming networks as a vehicle to prey on underage victims."
However, the New York Civil Liberties Union has expressed concern that the act will do little to achieve its stated goal, but that the act does "trample on the right to free speech and expression."
The information that was used to ban the accounts was submitted by the sex offenders themselves, who are required by law to register their email address and their screenname for online services in the state of New York. So far, this is the first time publishers have specifically banned sex offenders from their services.
What do you think? Is this an effective way of protecting children that use online services, or will this only serve to drive the issue underground?
