An extraordinary thing happened today. State TV -- there's a state-run television channel which has a news program. It's called Nile TV. And one of their main anchors resigned, saying she no longer wanted to be part of this disinformation, essentially. She joins us now. Her name is Shahira Amin. And also joining me is Heba Morayef with an organization, Human Rights Watch, which has also come under great pressure here. Shahira, why did you -- why did you give up your job as an anchor? SHAHIRA AMIN, FORMER NILE TV ANCHOR (via phone): Anderson, I've been with state television since 1989, and I worked with Nile TV since the very beginning. I've been very fortunate, because the freedom ceiling at Nile TV is slightly higher than on the other Arabic channels, because we have a different target audience. Nile TV broadcasts are in English and French, so the message is directed at the more elitist, or the educated members of society, not the illiterates. And as you know, in Egypt, where approximately 35 percent of the population is illiterate, television is one of the main sources of information. Now, I felt that, you know, I had done sensitive stories before, controversial -- what they call controversial stories. And I've been reprimanded on several occasions by state security for "tarnishing the country's image," quote unquote.

Konbanwa! Hi Everyone, Here is the senior solo I choreographed for my dance troupes spring 08' show, I messed up and dropped the cane twice since I was really nervous so I cut those parts out, but I still think I did ok as my first time performing a whole song solo infront of a crowd. Ironicly the very next day I was emergency hospitalized and had to have a blockage removed from my intestines two days later, they said I could have died, so although i have a large surgery scar now it is better than the alternative. Cheers! ~Cherry4225
