Cleric resigns after allegations of 'inappropriate' conduct with priests
LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's most senior Roman Catholic cleric resigned on Monday following allegations he behaved in an inappropriate way with priests, and said he would not take part in the election of Pope Benedict's replacement.
Cardinal Keith O'Brien said he had tendered his resignation some months ago, ahead of his 75th birthday in March and because he was suffering from "indifferent health".
The Vatican said the pope, who steps down on Thursday, had accepted O'Brien's resignation as archbishop of St. Andrews and Edinburgh.
O'Brien, an outspoken opponent of gay marriage, has been reported to the Vatican over allegations of inappropriate behavior stretching back 30 years, according to Britain's Observer newspaper.
The cardinal, who last week advocated allowing Catholic priests to marry as many found it difficult to cope with celibacy, rejected the allegations and was seeking legal advice, his spokesman said.1
"Looking back over my years of ministry: For any good I have been able to do, I thank God. For any failures, I apologize to all whom I have offended," O'Brien said in a statement, which made no reference to the recent allegations.
He said he would not attend the election next month of a new pope, saying: "I do not wish media attention in Rome to be focused on me - but rather on Pope Benedict XVI and on his successor."
The Observer, which gave little detail on the claims, said three priests and a former priest, from a Scottish diocese, had complained over incidents dating back to 1980.
One said the cardinal formed an "inappropriate relationship" with him while another complained of unwanted behavior by O'Brien after a late-night drinking session.
Last year, O'Brien's comments labeling gay marriage a "grotesque subversion" landed him with a "Bigot of the Year" award from British gay rights group Stonewall.

Adele Oscar Dress 2013: See Her Red Carpet Look! (PHOTOS)

The English singer-songwriter looked breathtaking at the 2013 Oscars in a beaded black tulle Jenny Packham gown with sheer sleeves. And her half-up, half-down hairstyle and thick liquid eyeliner add the finishing touches.

Kantar: Android back on top of US smartphone share in January with Sprint's help
Most US smartphone market share estimates last fall saw Apple retake the lead as it rode a wave of iPhone 5 sales. While there was always a question as to how long that trend would last, new data from Kantar Worldpanel supports beliefs that it was really more of a momentary pop. Android reportedly took back the lead at 49.4 percent of American sales between November and January, improving its overall position versus the same month last year. Not that everyone else was necessarily hurting -- iOS still had a 45.9 percent slice of the pie, and the continued Windows Phone 8 rollout took Microsoft up to 3.2 percent. The real wounds were dealt to a pre-transition BlackBerry and Nokia's outgoing Symbian.
We seldom get an explanation as to why such shifts take place, but the researchers suggest that a significant chunk of the January switch-up can be assigned to one carrier: Sprint. Its decision to cut the Galaxy S III's contract price to $99 supposedly helped Samsung's flagship climb from 14 percent of Sprint sales in October to 39 percent over the more recent 3-month span. The Galaxy S III didn't play as much of a role elsewhere, Kantar says. Sprint's average contract pricing for Android also dipped to $95 at the same time, helping Samsung alone get 60.3 percent of the network's business as customers snapped up bargains. Big Yellow only played a small part in the overall US market, as you'll see in the detailed charts after the break, but it may have been large enough to tip the balance in OS preferences at the start of 2013.

White House will soon revive cybersecurity legislation push
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A senior adviser to President Barack Obama said the White House will soon renew efforts to push cybersecurity legislation through Congress, though he foresaw an uphill battle given the failure of the last attempt.
Daniel said the White House has begun drafting "key legislative principles" for a new bill that it believes can pass both the House and Senate this time.
"We very much want a bill," White House cybersecurity coordinator Michael Daniel told Reuters while in San Francisco to meet industry experts and business leaders at a security conference. But he added: "I don't want to leave anybody with an impression that we underestimate the challenges."
"We will do our best to work with Congress," he added. "You will see that develop over the next couple of weeks to months," he said.
Cybersecurity legislation backed by the Obama administration died in the Senate in November amid fierce opposition from businesses that complained about over-regulation.
That bill would have increased information-sharing between intelligence agencies and private companies, with some privacy protections. It also would have set voluntary standards for businesses that control electric grids, water treatment plants and other essential facilities.
In the absence of overarching legislation, the Obama administration will pursue other means to improve cybersecurity, he said. Those included implementing an executive order the president signed this month that seeks to better protect critical infrastructure from cyber-attacks.
The order directs federal authorities to improve information-sharing on cyber-threats - including some that may be classified - with companies that provide or support critical infrastructure.
"It would be a mistake to assume you can't make any progress in the absence of legislation," he said.
The principles that the White House will support in new legislation include requiring that a civilian agency must be in charge of information-sharing, Daniel said.
Last year's Senate plan likewise would have put the Department of Homeland Security squarely in charge, though it could turn to the military's National Security Agency for assistance.

RT's Oscar Picks 2013 - Results
How did we fare this year in our Academy Awards predictions?
Best Picture: Argo
Momentum has been building for Argo in the past few weeks; it took home best picture honors at the Golden Globes, the BAFTAs, and the Critics' Choice Awards (and not to toot our own horns, but it won the Golden Tomato Award for Best Wide Release as well). Argo hits several sweet spots that the Academy voters find irresistible: it's inspirational, but loaded with historical gravitas; it was both a mainstream hit and a critical favorite; and, perhaps most importantly for voters, it's a celebration of the power of movies and the people who make them. Lincoln and Silver Linings Playbook have enjoyed some dark horse cache, but we think Argo will be the first film since Driving Miss Daisy to win Best Picture without garnering a Best Director nod.
CORRECT
Best Actor: Daniel Day-Lewis for Lincoln
This category has been in the bag since the ink was dry on Daniel Day-Lewis' contract.
CORRECT
This was the toughest category for RT editors to whittle down. At opposite ends of the age bracket, Emmanuelle Riva and Quvenzhan? Wallis each gave remarkable performances, and Riva in particular could muster some votes. Even more likely is Naomi Watts, whose physically grueling work in The Impossible has also generated buzz. Early on, it looked like Jessica Chastain had this category all sewn up, as critics societies around the country were heaping praise on her. However, in the last couple months, all the Oscar mojo has seemingly shifted toward Jennifer Lawrence; with a Golden Globe, a Critics Choice, and a SAG award under her belt, we think Lawrence will walk away with the Oscar as well.
CORRECT
Best Supporting Actor: Tommy Lee Jones for Lincoln
Each of the nominees has an Oscar to his credit, so there aren't any unjustly ignored sentimental favorites to choose from. Christoph Waltz won the BAFTA and the Golden Globe, but it seems unlikely he'll win just a few short years after his breakout role in Inglourious Basterds. Robert DeNiro has a strong chance, especially since his work in Silver Linings Playbook helped to erase memories of the great actor's string of mediocre films. However, we think Tommy Lee Jones - who was already honored by the Screen Actors Guild --will ultimately claim the Oscar.
INCORRECT - Christoph Waltz, Django Unchained. We shouldn't have discounted Waltz's previous award season victories.
Best Supporting Actress: Anne Hathaway for Les Mis?rables
Anne Hathaway has enjoyed almost universal Oscar buzz since before Les Mis?rables even hit theaters, and her wins at the Golden Globes and the BAFTAs confirm her status as the front-runner here. It's possible, though unlikely, that either Helen Hunt or Jacki Weaver will steal this category; if Weaver wins, it could be an early sign that Silver Linings Playbook will have a huge night.
CORRECT
Best Director: Steven Spielberg for Lincoln
Since Ben Affleck was inexplicably snubbed in this category, we think Steven Spielberg will take home the hardware as a consolation prize.
INCORRECT - Ang Lee, Life of Pi. It just wasn't Lincoln's night, and the Academy was obviously more enamored with Life of Pi overall. It's still a mystery why Ben Affleck wasn't even nominated in this category.
The Usual Suspects, Fargo, Lost in Translation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Juno... The screenplay awards are the place where the Academy honors innovative stuff that's a little too wild and wooly for Best Picture. Quentin Tarantino's consolation prize for Pulp Fiction losing to Forrest Gump was a Best Original Screenplay trophy, and he'll pick up another one for Django Unchained this year.
CORRECT
Adapted Screenplay: Argo
Following up on the last entry, we must make note of the fact that because there are two screenplay awards, it makes sense that one goes to something a little left of center, and the other goes to whatever won Best Picture. So chalk up Argo for the Academy Award for Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay).
CORRECT
Best Foreign Language Film: Amour
Given that Amour was also nominated for Best Picture (not to mention noms for Michael Haneke in the direction and screenwriting categories), this one seems like a lock.
CORRECT
This was another contentious award for RT editors. In a year of particularly strong choices, we think it's down to a three-way race between Searching for Sugar Man, The Invisible War, and The Gatekeepers, with the feel-good vibes of Sugar Man carrying the day over its more somber, issue-oriented peers.
CORRECT
Animated Feature: Brave
Another tough call. We think the competition is ultimately between Brave and Wreck-It Ralph. However, because graying Academy voters can't tell Call of Duty from The Call of the Wild, we're gonna go with the little redhead. (It must be noted that RT editor-in-chief Matt Atchity insists Frankenweenie will win, loudly telling the rest of the staff, "You're all wrong." Sure thing, chief.)
CORRECT
Best Cinematography: Life of Pi
Life of Pi's visual splendor is so mind-blowing that it seems improbable that anyone could steal this category from its cinematographer, Claudio Miranda.
CORRECT
Best Film Editing: Argo
Argo already took home the BAFTA in this category, and we think three-time nominee William Goldenberg will add to the film's Oscar haul.
CORRECT
Best Music - Original Score: Lincoln
John Williams is one of the most nominated figures in Academy history, and hasn't won in a long time. We think he'll win Oscar number six, but Mychael Danna's eclectic score for Life of Pi could surprise some people.
INCORRECT - Life of Pi. We had a feeling Mychael Danna could steal this one, especially since John Williams has so many Oscars to his name already.
Best Music - Original Song: Skyfall
These days, award shows exist for one reason, and one reason alone: to bestow trophies upon Adele.
CORRECT
This looks like a tossup between Anna Karenina and Les Mis?rables. We decided to go with the period piece based on a classic novel. And when we realized we were being forced to choose between two period pieces based on classic novels, we picked Anna Karenina, because Leo Tolstoy had cooler facial hair than Victor Hugo.
INCORRECT - Lincoln. We got this one completely wrong. Probably should have considered the painstakingly recreated period detail of Civil War-era Washington.
Take this one to the bank, comrades.
CORRECT
The controversy over Zero Dark Thirty's politics have hurt its Oscar chances in a number of categories. Still, few questioned the film's technical brilliance, and we think it's here that Zero Dark Thirty will take home the hardware.
HALF CORRECT - Ties are rare in Oscar history, but not unprecedented. Zero Dark Thirty split the honor with Skyfall.
A big deal was made about the fact that the cast of Les Mis?rables sang their songs live on camera. That's pretty tough to record, especially with canons going off everywhere.
CORRECT
Best Visual Effects: Life of Pi
Dude, remember the tiger in that movie? It was all CGI. Pretty cool, huh?
CORRECT
Those ears didn't get pointy all by themselves.
INCORRECT - Les Mis?rables. We were so focused on the pointy ears we neglected to take note of the grit and grime that accumulated on the faces of the actors portraying 19th Century Gauls.
Best Short Film - Live Action: Curfew
An idiosyncratic dramedy about a depressed writer tasked with babysitting his precocious niece, Curfew has racked up a bunch of festival awards, and we think it will add an Oscar to its haul.
CORRECT
Best Short Film - Animated: Paperman
Paperman is the wistful tale of an office drone who goes to great lengths to reconnect with a beautiful woman he glimpsed on the subway. It's sweet, it's beautifully animated, and it had the benefit of being the opening act for Wreck-It Ralph in theaters.
CORRECT
Best Documentary Short: Open Heart
This is a particularly solemn year for documentary shorts. We think Open Heart, the tale of eight Rwandan children traveling to Sudan for heart surgery, will earn both tears and votes from Academy members.
INCORRECT - Inocente, the story of a homeless girl who dreams of becoming an artist, took home the Oscar.
FINAL TALLY
CORRECT: 18
INCORRECT: 6
