■ Full documentary. This series (Amazonia: Last Call) travels across Brazilian landscapes by way of one of the main links still binding the essence of humanity with the Earth: the Amazon. The filming of the first point of contact with an isolated race, the Zo'E, the encroachment on areas of the Amazonian forest previously uncaptured on film, the evidence relating to the development of the illegal trafficking of species or the recording of the immeasurable value of Brazil's natural spaces; these are just excerpts from the series. The underlying theme is the conflict between the development and conservation of one of the key natural areas underpinning the stability of the planet.

Saeb Erekat, a Palestinian official, is now being quoted in the media as "backing" the efforts of Secretary of State John Kerry to get peace talks back on track. Specifically, he tells the media that the Palestinians have no preconditions to resume talks with Israel. None. Except that Israel must first freeze all building in the disputed territories and release all Palestinian prisoners. But -- he tells the reporters, those are not pre-conditions. You and I understand that if you say -- "I will not talk to you unless you first do the following" that is a pre-condition. Yet the journalists nod their heads and accept Erekat's lie.
Everyone who has followed news from the Middle East knows that Erekat is a serial lier. I'm not going to go through and rehash all the lies that he has peddled over the years. Read some of them in this article published on the HonestReporting website when he resigned two years ago. He resigned? That was another lie. Is it that easy to manipulate the media? After the first lie, he then throws in that Israel is an Apetheid state -- far worse that South Africa ever was.
Worse than South Africa? And none of these reporters asked him how many black members of the South African parliament served during Apartheid. No one pointed out that Arabs serve in the Israeli judiciary, the military, hospitals, schools. Yet again - they print his lies. If you are as fed up about anti-Israel bias in journalism, do me a favor. Published on May 26, 2013 by HonestReportingVideo

Haiya .... perhaps we have entered a time when we do not have to open our eyes wide in observing problem. Honestly I feel a bit disgusted look a pair of men or women kissing and eventually of course they will engage in sexual acts. Moreover, if so far this case is only about the legitimacy of sexual orientation issue. But honestly anyway I do not understand how to address this phenomenon if genetically they are inherited abnormalities of DNA structure.
Imagine this situation at all places of worship. Maybe there is a question in the doorway, "Wait a minute! Is there a religion that justifies same sex to marry?"
And they continue to practice as adherents of a particular religion by asking back, "Are there any verses in the religion which explains that its followers are just normal people and not the same sex? We just enthusiasts of the same sex, not atheists."
And in their prayers, they complained to the same God with different voices, but it could be the same quality of piety.
"A Pious Gay? A Pious Lesbian?"
Some nouns joined to make a new adjective in my mind. Wonder. But I pretended not to hear and not see them, because I do not like if my prayers can be easily heard by others. What is the meaning of piety? What is the meaning of gay and lesbian?
We are said to be virtuous if we are obedient to the teachings of religion. Well, and what is described by religion about homosexuality?
Ah, well, please continue my thoughts and you will easily find what I mean. If you find a deadlock mind, please come here and sit next to me. Well, now what are we gonna do? We are only observers, not the patients. And we do not have to commit suicide because frustrated by the social environment or religious paradigm. But I was always determined, "If homosexual behavior and lesbianism is just a kind of a contagious disease, then I would be happy to be its volunteer doctor." - Seriously.

"What? Do not play smartass, Cisca! Remember what was said by your fiance? "Maybe you are a woman who has the potential to make a man be a real man, but you also has the potential to make all normal men suffer form sexual impotence."

■ Classics of the Concorso d'Eleganza Ralph Lauren's 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic - Start Up & Exhaust Sound. During the 2013 Concorso d'Eleganza of Villa d'Este, in Italy, I filmed the Ralph Lauren's Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic (chassis 57591). This car is deemed as "the most beautiful car ever made" and "the ultimate Bugatti creation" by many people. I'm not sure I belong to one of these category of people (probabily because I'm not a fan of luxury and very old cars) but I had to admit this car has left me quite amazed.
The car was the last one of only four Type 57 SC Atlantic ever made. It was built in 1938 for a British enthusiast who kept it for about three following decades. In the subsequent 20 years, the car passed to various hands untill, in 1988, it was acquired by the fashion designer Ralph Lauren who decided to restore it (when it was produced this Atlantic was painted in a sapphire blue colour). In 1990, after a two years restoration, the car made its post-restoration debut and immediately won the "Best of Show" award at the Pebble Beach Concours.
The Atlantic is moved by a 3.3 liter Supercharged straight 8 engine which can produce 210 bhp @ 5500 rpm and reach a top speed of 210 km/h (130 mph). The car is also well known to be the world's most expensive car after that, in April 2010, the first 1936 Bugatti Type 57 SC was sold privately for an amount between 30$ - 40$ million.

Mt. Everest, Nepal — Climbers navigate the knife-edge ridge just below the Hillary Step on their way to the summit of Mt. Everest.

Fallout over race to climb Mt. Everest. It is almost 60 years since humankind accomplished what many thought impossible. New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Nepalese sherpa Tenzing Norgay became the first people to reach the summit of the world's highest peak, Mount Everest on May 29, 1953. Since then many have followed in their footsteps. But the increasing number of climbers are leading to tension on the mountain, and even fatalities. Al Jazeera's Steve Chao reports from Mt. Everest.
