B71 #17: David Yau urges to privatize

HKU BSc1971: "Edward Sin said:
Attention to all. Please respond to #12. Thanks"

David Yau said: Ah eSin, shall we not first privatize our blog before posting our contact numbers?

Edward Sin said: Let me try to privatize it now, and let's experience with it.

B71 #16: HKU BSc1971

HKU BSc1971 David Yau said:

For those who don't already know, Tom Chung the "naughty boy" should be better known, among us, as Chung Wing Hin. His Christian name, as reported, was actually inspired from his teen-age idol Tom Jones the singer's. Just a tip to remember Chung's new name: Tom Jones but without the "ass"..... LOL

Edward Sin said:

Attention to all. Please respond to #12. Thanks

B71 #11: Privatizing the Blog

Please read the article :Jailed for a Blogpost

In a cramped jail cell in Alexandria, Egypt, sits a soft-spoken 22-year-old student. Kareem Amer was remanded to over a month in prison for allegedly "defaming the President of Egypt" and "highlighting inappropriate aspects that harm the reputation of Egypt." Where did Amer commit these supposed felonies? On his weblog.

If the Alexandria prosecutors' standards of censorship were applied in the US, thousands of Americans would be behind bars. The Egyptian authorities' decision to jail an obscure student for his blogposts reveals a larger struggle for free speech playing out between dissident bloggers and state prosecutors across the Middle East.

For decades, the region's dictators maintained a monopoly on public information. Newspapers, radio stations, and national television broadcasts were nearly all owned by the state. These regime-controlled media outlets toed the government line, aligned political opponents, and blocked critical voices. By inverting the watchdog role of the press - where journalists expose, investigate, and question - what should be a critical independent institution was instead transformed into a mouthpiece for government propaganda.

The advent of blogs in the past few years, however, has reshaped the playing field. While some regimes (like Algeria) may still own the main printing presses and control the national supply of ink, any citizen can access free blogging services. Now an individual's voice - even that of a random student at Al-Azhar University, like Kareem Amer - can reach audiences around the globe.

Regimes accustomed to control have struggled to respond. In Tunisia, web publisher Zouhair Yahyaoui was dragged from an Internet café by security forces and tortured into revealing his site's password after he posted a quiz mocking President Zinedine Ben Ali. In Bahrain, the Information Ministry blocked the blog of entrepreneur Mahmoud Al-Yousif for covering a political scandal. In Iran, authorities arrested student Mojtaba Saminejad after he condemned the arrest of several fellow bloggers and "insulted the Supreme Leader."

Protecting free speech in the Middle East hinges on the fate of young activists like Kareem Amer. Raised in a strict Islamic household, Amer was placed in Al-Azhar's religious school system at the age of six and watched as his sisters were forced to quit school and wear the niqab (the full-body black veil). After 18 years in the rigid world of the Al Azhar system, Amer evidently felt trapped. Rather than embrace the religious establishment, he became a critic of discrimination against women and non-Muslims.

Blogging became Amer's outlet - and his downfall. When Al-Azhar officials discovered a blogpost criticizing extremist professors, Amer was expelled and his case referred to the public prosecutor.

Although a human rights lawyer accompanied Amer to his interrogation, prosecutors made clear they were indicting Amer for his beliefs. "Do you fast on Ramadan?" they demanded. "Do you pray?" They even insisted he reveal his opinions on the Darfur crisis. Amer would not retract his blogposts, so prosecutors threw him in jail - and laughed at the human rights attorney present, openly mocking the concept of standing up for individual rights.

Only a few years ago, the arrest of a student at Al-Azhar would have been met with silence and indifference from the outside world. But today, hundreds of fellow bloggers and readers from around the world have raised the alarm. Over 1,500 have sent letters to the Egyptian government and the State Department demanding Amer's release. The technology that has empowered unknown students in closed societies to speak to the world also gives readers everywhere the ability to rally together to protect free expression.

It also enabled Amer to smuggle blogposts out from his Alexandria cell. "A person using his brain and expressing his ideas freely," he observed, "is more dangerous in our country than someone who destroys others' property or deals drugs."

Amer's arrest - for writing on a website few people have ever read - comes as the future of the Middle East hangs in the balance. While recent years have witnessed a surge in young voices challenging the status quo, powerful forces are trying to close down that window of greater liberty. In the campaign to hold Egyptian authorities accountable for criminalizing free speech, much more than the fate of one young blogger is at stake.

Dalia Ziada is a staffer at the Cairo-based Arabic Network for Human Rights Information. Jesse Sage directs the HAMSA project of the American Islamic Congress.

For sanitary and security reasons, we shall be privatizing our Blog soon. Please join in as member the soonest possible.

Borrowed description for your reference:
(路線參考：漁護署網頁http://parks.afcd.gov.hk/ )

薄扶林至龍虎山 (We shall go in reverse direction)

難得幾天假期，一家出外遠足，選一條既可盡興又不難走的路線，最後決定到兩個位於港島的郊野公園，嘗試一口氣走完。

乘搭巴士到薄扶林道起步，經過香港首座儲水庫 - 薄扶林水塘。聽父親說，香港天然水源不足，開埠初期僅依靠山澗和水井供應食水，到了1850 年代，政府因人口日增，設賞金徵求開發水源的方案，建築師匠心獨運，利用薄扶林山谷地形闢建水塘，將雨水聚。工程 1863 年完竣後，附近居民獲益匪淺。

信步前行，未幾抵達太平山頂。相傳太平山原名「硬頭山」，海盜張保仔曾盤踞山上，揚旗為號，故又名「扯旗山」。稍作休息，欣賞維港景色，天高海靜。

沿爐峰自然步道前往龍虎山，參觀松林炮台。炮台位處海拔三百米高地，已有上百年歷史，曾改裝作防空用途，堪稱本港炮台之王。如今營房荒棄，廢堡滄桑，只能從說明牌追憶昔日雄風。

日落前趕抵摩星嶺，在青年旅舍細賞青洲的日落餘暉，短宿一宵，一家共度平靜而喜悅的聖誕。

B71 #9: January 10D, 11D or 12D (refer #21)

Sin Wing Sang is organizing a lunch. The details are given below. The original is in Chinese but I am still struggling with Blogger.com to get it through. So, sorry, it is a poor English equivalent.

If you are coming, please notify him at his usual e-mail address (or as an experiment, leave a comment), hopefully by September 25.

He intends to publish the final participation list by 5:30 pm on
Sept 26.

Restaurant: Chuen Cheung Kui

489 Hennessy Road - 8th floor, Causeway Bay Plaza Phase One

Cost: about $100

Tel: 2577 3833

B71 #4: Fields Medal (message from CY Lam)

Terry Tao, the son of 1st-class-honours classmate Grace Leung and husband Billy Tao, recently won the Fields Medal which is treated by many as the equivalent of the Nobel Prize in mathematics.

Half of Terry's genes came from Grace, according to biological textbooks. So we may proudly consider that there is half a Fields Medal in the class.

See the notes given in the website of the Australian Mathematical Society:

http://www.austms.org.au/Publ/Gazette/2006/Jul06/Supplement/

B71 #3: Click to magnify (message from CY Lam)

Some people said that they could not read the names of the students in the letter.

I found that with Internet Explorer, you could magnify the letter image by clicking, maybe doubly, to get an icon which when clicked would enable the magnification.

Good luck.

B71 #2: BSc 1971 awards (message from CY Lam)

We created the BSc Class of 1971 Prize a long time ago. It is awarded to the best students finishing their second year of studies in the Faculty of Science.
