Three men, one on death row, may be set free today after a deal is made between state prosecutors and defense attorneys. For seventeen years the men have been incarcerated for the murders of three 8-year old boys in West Memphis, Arkansas on May 5, 1993.
The DNA Evidence
New DNA evidence surfaced in 2007 showing that none of the DNA evidence found at the scene of the crime could be attributed to any of the defendants.
This evidence was eventually reversed by the Arkansas Supreme Court but newly tested evidence from July 2011 of materials from the crime scene were found to not match any of the defendants yet again.
All three men received severe punishments for the committed crimes. According to officials the slayings of the young boys were part of a Satanic ritual.
- Jason Baldwin was sentenced to life in prison.
- Damien Echols was sentenced to death.
- Jessie Misskelley Jr. was sentenced to life imprisonment and two 20-year sentences.
The DNA evidence will not completely exonerate the men but it does make the case circumstantial because there is a lack evidence implicating any of them.
The HBO documentary series Paradise Lost sparked much of the criticism about how law enforcement handled the crime scene and the case. According to the films, there was also very little blood evidence found by the bodies, indicating that the boys were probably not even murdered at the same location that their bodies were found.
Mystery Hearing
The defense argued that much of the substantial evidence gathered by the police was actually gained by coercion. Misskelley confessed to the crime but later recanted. It was this confession that sealed the conviction for the 'West Memphis Three.'
"I don't know what kind of deal they made," said Steve Branch, the father of victim Steven Branch. "Now you can get some movie stars and a little bit of money behind you and you can walk free for killing somebody," he added.
Many legal experts, celebrities and defense attorneys support the innocence of the three defendants.
From the New York Times:
"Should Mr. Echols be freed, it would be the highest profile release of a death row inmate in recent memory."
These men were boys when they were arrested and have spent years in prison. Will DNA evidence be enough to set them free?
What do you think?
CNN is streaming the video live from the hearing.
There is also a Free the WM3 Support Fund created by a group of individuals fighting for what they believe is the "truth."
UPDATE (8/19/11 1:30PM EST) : An Arkansas judge has set the three men, Echols, Baldwin and Miskelley, free. To regain their freedom and get out of prison the three men agreed to pleading guilty, preventing the possibility o a civil lawsuit against the state of Arkansas.

Ways and Means Committee Members Seek Additional Information from AARP
Thursday, April 21, 2011
In the letter to Mr. Rand the three members wrote, "Based upon comments you or Lee Hammond, President of AARP, Inc., made at the hearing, there are a number of documents and answers that AARP agreed to provide the Subcommittees. Likewise, there are unresolved matters or areas that require further clarification. To that end, this letter is intended to follow up on those matters." The letter calls on AARP to answer questions, share information and provide documentation by May 5, 2011 that was promised by AARP during a Committee hearing held on April 1, 2011. The members outlined fifteen requests in the six-page letter, which fall into three different categories. Examples of the questions and information request from each of the three categories are included below: Information AARP agreed to provide during the hearing "[Please provide the Committee with] the amount of money AARP earned on the interest from holding insurance premiums for AARP-branded insurance products and the amount of taxes paid, if any, on the interest earned, in each of the last ten years. Also provide the length of time the premium money is held by AARP, in accordance with the contracts, for each AARP-branded insurance product." Questions and clarifications related to inaccuracies or misstatements "When asked, 'What percentage of AARP's Medigap premiums will AARP keep in each year from 2011 until the current contract expires in 2017?' you responded that, 'I can't answer the future. We have not talked about that.' "Given that AARP's Medigap contract with UnitedHealth Group runs through 2017, the royalty payment (defined as percentage of Medigap premiums retained by AARP) that AARP receives in future years covered under the contract should be readily available. Please provide us with information detailing the percentage of the Medigap premium that AARP will receive in 2011 through 2017." Questions that were unanswered or that AARP refused to address "You were asked twice, by two different members, whether AARP would commit to forgoing any Exchange insurance product-related revenue, whether by royalty commission, or otherwise, beginning in 2014. You failed to answer the question both times it was asked. We would like you to answer this very simple question: "Will AARP commit to not endorsing or selling insurance in the government-run Exchanges? Will AARP decline any royalty, commission payments, licensing fees, or revenue from any insurance company that is related to an insurance product offered in the Exchange?"

N-Dex: Strong growth potential in info-sharing
Information technology solutions are likely to be the primary ingredient in nationwide efforts to let state and local authorities share police reports on activity judged to be suspicious and potentially linked to terrorism.
Authorities say local police efforts to record and share activities that could be related to terrorism are critical to the government's counterterrorism effort. However, the specifics of how thousands of jurisdictions will record the reports and then share them through IT systems with federal counterterrorism officials remain open questions.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence's Program Manager for the Information Sharing Environment (PM-ISE) is leading the national Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) initiative. In January, the office released standards for SARs that are to be shared across the national Information Sharing Environment, or ISE-SARs.
An initial privacy and civil liberties analysis for the PM-ISE-led effort, released last month, provides detail of a yearlong evaluation project that will test various technologies and workflows for the
ISE-SAR process at 12 sites nationwide.
According to the study, authorities are not trying to create a single system for accessing or storing ISE-SARs. Instead, they are taking a federated approach, allowing jurisdictions to operate their chosen systems. However, those systems must comply with an enterprise architecture and use common data standards to manage user access to the different systems.
State and local intelligence fusion centers and FBI Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTF) will also play a role in determining whether information qualifies as an ISE-SAR. Establishing the needed policies to make the systems work together is a challenge for federal and local authorities.
The government is testing suspicious-activity reporting processes and measuring how the ISE-SAR standards further the government's counterterrorism goals. The evaluation process, called the ISE-SAR Evaluation Environment, seeks to test various aspects and technologies in the ISE-SAR process.
One concept under consideration is a PM-ISE project called Shared Spaces. Participants post ISE-SARs through a fusion center's shared space so other authorities can view it.
Once the jurisdictions involved standardize access, system certification and accreditation rules and apply them to the system, users will have access to information across those shared spaces rather than having to use multiple systems.
Meanwhile, officials also will test SARs sharing by using the FBI's eGuardian system, which is designed to enable state and local law enforcement authorities to share suspicious-activity reports with the FBI's JTTF at a nonsecret level.
Federal officials say testing Shared Spaces and eGuardian will let them refine the systems and the process.
Sharing suspicious-activity reporting is one way to identify relationships among seemingly unrelated occurrences, the proverbial connecting of the dots that many analysts say intelligence authorities failed to do before the 2001 terrorist attacks.
Jurisdictions have different priorities and laws regarding the sharing of criminal intelligence and raw police data. In addition, states and localities have vastly diverse technological and analytic capabilities, and varying levels of funding and experience with terrorism issues. The increased recording, maintaining and sharing of information on observed behaviors that are not inherently criminal also raise privacy and civil-liberties issues.
However, not all experts agree that information sharing needs great expansion. Michael German, policy counsel at the American Civil Liberties Union and a former FBI agent, said he is concerned that tasking local and state law enforcement with suspicious-activity reporting could cause them to open investigations that are not pressing, thus diverting resources from more important con erns.
Encouraging law enforcement officials to track legal behaviors that could be considered suspicious invites profiling, he added.
Joan McNamara, assistant commanding officer of the Los Angeles Police Department's Counter-Terrorism and Criminal Intelligence Bureau, said her department has tried to build a SAR system based on behaviors, not individuals. The LAPD, which has led the way in developing local SAR reporting procedures and implemented its departmental policies in March, will be one of the sites testing both eGuardian and Shared Spaces.
"You have to develop the process at the local agency to get the dot" and then the policies for sharing the dots, she said. "There's certainly technology that exists so that these systems, both of them, will complement each other. They won't be siloed systems."
John Cohen, a senior adviser at PM-ISE, said that the goal of the evaluation process is to confirm that the assumptions about the SAR processes are valid and to make modifications, if necessary.
He added that the government was also making sure standards that protect privacy rights and civil liberties were in place. Cohen said the effort's goal is not to create a big database of information, but to provide frontline authorities with an expanded toolset.
In July, the Justice Department proposed amending long-standing rules that govern how state and local law enforcement entities gather, store and share criminal intelligence data in federally funded systems.
The proposed amendments would put terrorism and its material support into the category of criminal activities state and local law enforcement agencies should monitor. In addition, they would establish standards for how information can be used for prevention purposes, something that the regulations do not currently mention.
German said the changes are unnecessary and amount to creating a domestic intelligence apparatus.
The proposed changes would expand the regulation to include terrorism and allow data to be held for 10 years without review, rather than five, and apply to organizations rather than just individuals. However, the proposed changes would not remove the standard of reasonable suspicion of criminal activity under which criminal intelligence can be shared.
Gerald Rogero, an FBI supervisory special agent who is the business program manager for eGuardian and the FBI's classified Guardian system, said that is the standard used for vetting and to determine retention in eGuardian.
He also said eGuardian will offer a flexible record-retention policy to accommodate state and local laws for maintaining information that are more stringent than federal regulations.
Rogero said eGuardian is different from the Shared Spaces concept in that a report remains in draft mode while it resides on the FBI server. Under eGuardian, a state or local agency sets up accounts and determines how it wants reports to flow through the system, he said. FBI then provides administrative rights to the nonfederal agency. Users enter their initial reports in draft mode and FBI can access them and incorporate them into their own secret eGuardian system once the decision is made that it does meet the criteria for sharing.
"We actually are able at this point now to bring information and develop a richer picture for the future," McNamara said. "Now, how that information is shared and how we do it, keeping in mind all of these very stringent guidelines, is the task ahead and I think we've got the right people at the table."

Wall Street Journal Slams Norm Coleman For Health Care Repeal Comments | Conservatives are pushing back against former senator and Romney campaign surrogate Norm Coleman (R-MN) for claiming that a Republican president won't be able to repeal the Affordable Care Act and are pressing the former Massachusetts governor to distance himself from Coleman's assessment. This morning, the Wall Street Journal weighed in, describing Coleman as a counselor of "despair" who wants to "sign a health-care armistice before the battle lines are even drawn." If Romney's "real ObamaCare convictions are akin to Mr. Coleman's—if Republicans ought to 'repeal the bad and keep the good,' as Mr. Romney once put it in 2010—then voters should know that now, before he becomes the nominee," the paper writes, "If those aren't his convictions, then Mr. Coleman shouldn't be anywhere near his campaign." All of this is pure bravado, of course, designed to whip up Republican votes in November. Like the Romney campaign, the WSJ understands that unless Republicans win a 60-vote majority in the Senate, outright legislative repeal of the law is practically impossible. Coleman's slip-up was a rare moment of truth, no matter how much the GOP establishment would like to pretend otherwise.

The Portico 5043 embodies two independent Compressor-Limiters (Channels A and B) housed within a half rack, 1U module. They can be used independently or connected in sequence to provide two separate control slopes. When used independently, for example, as a stereo pair, linking the D.C. control circuits via a front panel Push-Button, enables the level of each unit, A and B, to be held in a constant relationship. Rear panel TRS connections are provided to link multiple 5043s. This linking may also be extended to the former AMEK CIB and DMCL units.
When used in sequence, the Portico 5043 can be configured easily to provide dual slope compression and limiting as suggested in the graphs below.
A part of the audio signal is rectified and smoothed to produce a suitable control voltage for the V.C.A. which has to respond very quickly and have low distortion. If the response is too fast, low frequency signals will themselves, be gain controlled! If the response is too slow, the signal will overshoot and the first few cycles will not get compressed. The speed and accuracy of the response, known as the attack, and the time frame that gain remains under the initial control, known as release or recovery and plays a large part in the way a compressor sounds.
All Portico modules use input and output transformers and, almost entirely discrete component amplifiers. In fact the Line amplifiers on their own, inserted into the signal chain, are capable of enhancing the sonic quality of many signal sources, especially those of digital origin. These are some of the factors that enable, the Portico 5043, to work so unobtrusively within the context of a very high quality audio chain.
If the V.C.A. Control voltage is taken from the 5043 input, (i.e. before the V.C.A.) the V.C.A. knows right away that a gain change is required and there is almost immediate response. This is known, logically, as a Feed-Forward compressor.
Ratio and Threshold are closely inter-dependent. If a RATIO as high as 40:1 has been set, then if the THRESHOLD is set at 0 dBu, even when a massive signal of +40 dBu (unlikely!) is presented to the input, the output signal will only be +1 dBu. RATIOS as high as this would normally be set somewhere above 0 dBu - say at +14 dBu, in order to prevent the output signal level exceeding just over +14 dBu to protect, for example, a digital recorder. Similarly, if a RATIO of 5:1 has been set, an input signal which is 10dB above THRESHOLD will only rise by 2dB above that THRESHOLD at the output.
THRESHOLD control covers the Range from below -30dB to +22dBu. When THRESHOLD set at a low level, with a fairly high RATIO the amount of gain reduction will be considerable and it may be necessary to use some GAIN after the compressor to restore the apparent signal level.
Setting the right values of RELEASE and ATTACK is what compression is all about! Once the principles are understood a Compressor-Limiter such as the 5043 provides a powerful tool that actually appears to enhance the dynamic range of a recording and so provide greater musical enjoyment.

Support Guatemala Trip
You can be a part of a life changing missions trip to Guatemala without even leaving the state.
We're excited about the doors that have opened for a team of 24 people, led by STAR 88.3 and Compassion International to go on a missions trip to Guatemala, July 26 - Aug. 1. Each team member feels called to go and honored to get to serve these precious children and their families. These children live with their families on dirt floors, no running water and no electricity. They need the hope of Jesus and love from us to have a vision for their future to be better. All the team members are raising money for their expenses. If you feel led to support this outreach you can call Michelle Sinn at the station at 260-483-8236 or email her at firstname.lastname@example.com. She will respond to you and get your information. Your gift is tax deductible when you write out a check to STAR 88.3. Write Compassion Intl. in the memo or Michelle will get back to you to get your credit card information processed. You can also send a check to STAR 88.3: 8 Martin Luther Drive, Ft. Wayne, IN 46845.
We thank you for your investment into these precious lives. We also would ask that you pray for this missions trip and the team that's going. We will be sending reports and pictures when we go.
Sharing HIS hope,
Melissa Montana
And...if you missed out on our fall campaign, STAR 88.3 still invites you to sponsor a child in Guatemala. There are 125 children in one specific village that we know need sponsors, and we know this entire village can be changed by all of us here in Northeast Indiana. Click here to sponsor a child.
Watch the videos below to hear the stories of these special children. Our own Melissa Montana adopted her daughter, LaShay, from Guatemala 14 years ago. Click here to see the faces and learn more about these precious children that need your support. Below are pictures and video from Melissa's trip to Guatemala last summer.
When you sponsor a child, it makes prayer time before a good meal possible. So sweet!

The link now seems to be sending to a Compassion page that doesn't have all the students from that center. Do we need a new link?
Lon Keaton said on Oct 28, 2012 at 8:16pm
We missed the boat last week during the Compassion supporting of the 150 children in the Guatemalan village. We saw the picture of Yadira (ID GU9490380) and was wondering if she is part of the village and still available to be supported? We would like to sponsor her if she is still available. Thank you for your help. Lon and Gwen Keaton

God has been working on my heart with your effort in Guatamala. I listen to Star 88.3 whenever I am in the car and have somehow (God thing I mean) been "forced" to belive that this is something I am suppose to do.My own situation is so trivial compared to what these children are facing. So, I started searching by birthdays and age (youngest) and then just for girls and had no matches, so I decided to look for the oldest child who could learn and then teach the younger kids!! He could be a LEADER!! So I am now sponsoring Jose Manuel Sosa Perez who is 9 years old. Thank you for partnering with God on this mission and allowing me to be a part of it. :o)
Shannon Feigel said on Jan 28, 2013 at 5:41pm
Hello, My name is Shannon Feigel and I have been praying about going on a missions trip and I was listening to you advertise about the missions trip to Guatamala, Please send me information for this trip.
Stephanie said on Jan 30, 2013 at 2:45pm
Cheryl Walker said on Feb 13, 2013 at 1:42pm
I am interested in the Guatamala trip this July. I've been on a previous mission trip as the parish nurse at our church. I've also had Red Cross training. Please advise. Thank you.

Sofas With Flange
Typically sofas have welt, they can have contrast welt, self-welt, double-welt, no welt, decorative trim, gimp detail, fat welt, thin welt, and there are more. One that is not seen very often is a flange-welt. Done right this look can be casual and relaxed, but done badly and, well the flange reminds me of what young boys are rid of during a bris, slouchy and not particularly useful. Here are some fine examples for you to decide if you agree or not.

White Bean Salad
at a glance
main ingredients Lemon Juice, Vegetable, Radish, Sugar Snap Pea, Legume, Bean
type Entertaining, Vegetable, Salad
dietary considerations Vegetarian, Healthy
yield: Serves 6 to 8 as a starter
- 1 cup dried small white beans, such as cannellini or Great Northern, or 1 15-ounce can
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon honey
- 1 tablespoon chopped shallot
- 1 cup snow peas or sugar snap peas
- 1/2 bunch fresh chives, chopped
- 5 mild radishes, such as Lady Slipper radishes, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1. If you're using dried beans, first rinse them, picking out any stones, and place in a bowl. Cover with cold water and soak for 8 hours, or overnight, then drain the beans and place in a pot. Add the garlic and bay leaf and enough water to cover the beans by at least 1 inch. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender, about 1 hour.
2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, and shallot. Whisk to combine.
3. When the beans are done, drain them well and place in a medium bowl. Discard the bay leaf and garlic clove. Add one third of the vinaigrette to the warm beans and toss; then let stand for 15 minutes, tossing occasionally. If using canned beans, rinse and drain them, then toss with the vinaigrette.
4. In a small pot of boiling water, cook the snow peas or sugar snap peas for 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, place them in a bowl of ice water. Drain, pat dry, and slice thin.
5. In a large salad bowl, place the cooled beans, snow peas, chives, radishes, and basil. Pour the remaining dressing over and toss lightly. Serve immediately.

Kansas City LAP-BAND, REALIZE Band & Gastric Sleeve
We know you can lose the weight. All of our patients have been successful dieting. Most of them could teach a nutrition class. The problem is, you can't lose enough weight and you can't keep it off.
The constant mental stress, aside from the obvious physical stress of obesity, is exhausting. It's that never-ending roller coaster: this month, you're down 20 pounds, but the diet isn't one you can sustain for the rest of your life. When you do finally give in and decide to eat like a normal human being, the weight comes right back, and this time you end up heavier than where you started.
This is a very familiar story — we hear it every day.
The LAP-BAND, REALIZE Band, Sleeve Gastrectomy and Malley Surgical can give you a permanent solution, finally! No more yo-yo diets, no more constant weighing, no more guilt. You will overcome this obstacle, and we will be there every step of the way.
Learn more about the different weight loss surgery options at Malley Surgical:

- Kansas City REALIZE Band Surgery
- Kansas City Sleeve Gastrectomy (Gastric Sleeve)
Take your life back!
Kansas City is the home of our cutting-edge bariatric surgery practice. Dr. Stephen Malley, one of the pioneers of the LAP-BAND® System surgery in the Midwest, is a leader in the bariatric surgery community. With thousands of successful lap banding procedures under our belt, we know how to guide you to weight loss success.
Are you ready to reveal the real you? You've already taken the first step. Let Malley Surgical show you how the LAP-BAND® System procedure can change your life.
Click here to Get started!I've been obese my entire life and I didn't realize how limiting it was...
After years of failed diets, I realized the LAP-BAND was something I could do...
I investigated other surgeons, but Dr.Malley was someone I could relate to...

Did you say strangely?The frame and its mysteriesģ
Wander is a sideways movement of the motorcycle. Unpleasant more than dangerous, there are generally solutions, unless it is a design fault (frame not rigid enough).
The first in line culprits are the tyres (worn or under-inflated), the suspensions (worn, badly adjusted or unsuitable for the load), the steering column (worn bearings).
By looking at these parameters we can return some of the stability to the machine. The riding position also plays a role : the rider wearing a somewhat roomy jacket, driving fast on a bike with no fairing, could be responsible for wander.
More unpleasant and dangerous than wander, head shake is both sudden and brutal. It most usually occurs when accelerating, and causes steering wobble with the fork even going as far as smashing the steering buffers. The rider can be thrown off and injured due to head shake.
This can happen on all motorcycles, but there are nevertheless certain pre-requisites : a motorcycle with a high torque engine (engine torque is the capacity to deliver the power instantaneously), with a rigid frame and short wheelbase will be more subject to it than a trail bike with its more flexible frame and less powerful engine.
Tyre wear, suspension adjustment (front fork too hard, or using worn oil) are aggravating factors. A steering damper can overcome the problem, but this often reduces the agility of the bike.
Shimmy is a type of head shake which occurs when decelerating and at low speed, when the motorcycle is switching from its "gyroscopic" type of balance to its natural "gravity" type of balance. Shimmy may be violent, and its cause is worn or unsuitable tyres or a worn or tight steering.
Worn tyres or suspension can also be the source of vibration with more far-reaching effects for your motorcycle. The good road-holding of a motorcycle is a question of balance between the different parameters: tyres, suspension, fluids etc. It just needs one of these parameters to change to upset everything. Imagine the head-ache, for example when refurbishing a used sports bike!

Rethinking Religion
There is a ferment in the world's religions. We have all heard about conservative and fundamentalist religion. But we hear much less about religion that is deeply spiritual and nondogmatic, that builds empathic communities and inspires people to activism to create a caring, democratic, egalitarian, and environmentally sane society. Learn about such religion and spirituality here, in articles by experts and lay members of many religions, by "spiritual but not religious" people, and by atheists and agnostics who appreciate much of what, beliefs aside, religion or spirituality does for people's lives.

The Futilitarian Heresy
by Gene Wesley Marshall
A heresy with regard to Christian hope has arisen. I will call it "futilitarianism," having stolen that name from one of its adherents. Futilitarianism is a fairly sober and comforting faith. It allows its believers to be honest about the current crises without having to think through how a positive outcome might be strategized and accomplished.

Red Flags Round Pope Francis
by Matthew Fox
Like everyone else on earth, I wish the new pope well and I hope he truly emulates some of Francis of Assisi's priorities of defending Mother Earth who is in so much peril, living simply (how one does that in a palace like the Vatican surrounded by an obsequious court is another question), speaking out on behalf of the poor, impoverished, sick, and neglected, and speaking out on those social and economic structures that institutionalize injustice. I also hope he cleans up the rat's nest of corruption, pedophile cover-up, ego mania, and power-addicted prelates who run the curia that in turn runs the Vatican. Good luck and God's Blessing!

For your Passover Seders or Easter Gatherings
by Michael Lerner
Both Passover and Easter have a message of liberation and hope for the downtrodden of the earth. Yet too often we fail to see the continuities between the original liberatory messages of these holidays and the contemporary need for liberation and resurrection of the dead parts of our consciousness. This is our first attempt to craft a Seder addressing the needs of the 99 percent.

The Religious Roots of the Minimum Wage
by Jonathan Zimmerman
Will raising the minimum wage put more money in the pockets of America's working poor? Or will it have the opposite effect, throwing more poor people out of work? That's the question we ask whenever anyone proposes a hike in the minimum wage, as President Obama did in his State of the Union Address. But it's also the wrong question, diverting us from the biggest one of all: what are the rights that we share as human beings?

How the Papal Conclave Could Renew Religion: My Two Votes for Pope
by Matthew Fox
Because the Vatican is so sick and infested with evil spirits, it is time to admit that in its present configuration history has passed it by, the Holy Spirit has exited, and its usefulness has run out. But electing a person of genuine spiritual and ethical stature such as the Dalai Lama who also stands for global intelligence and peace and who calls compassion "my religion" would be a genuine act of humility and vision by the voting cardinals. It would also draw us nearer to the real teaching of Jesus and the person who Jesus was. Electing a non-westerner and a non-Christian who recognizes the spiritual genius of Jesus and the truth of the "Buddha Nature" or "Cosmic Christ" in all beings would refresh the move for interspirituality and interfaith that our planet needs so badly. (A bishop of Rome could be elected, hopefully by the people, who would live in that bishop's place—the Lateran—and preside over the Roman flock meanwhile.) This creative and visionary act by the conclave would help turn the tide of history at this time when our species is in mortal danger of destroying itself by weaponry and wars and/or by continued ecological imperialism, destroying the very nest that feeds and nourishes us.

Overcoming the Sexual and Religious Legacies of Slavery
by Bernadette Brooten
Because of the U.S. history of slavery, assumptions about the sexuality of African American women in the United States differ from those made about European American women. The sexual stereotype of enslaved women as licentious extends far back into history; modern racism extended it to all Black women and also used the myth of Black hypersexuality as a reason to enslave Black people.

Nature: An Original Duckumentary – 7pm
Ducks fly through the air on short stubby wings — traveling in large, energy-efficient formations over thousands of miles. There are some 150 species of them, representing a wide variety of shapes, sizes and behaviors. Some are noisy and gregarious, others shy and elusive. They are familiar animals we think we know. But most of us don't really know these phenomenal, sophisticated creatures at all. This program follows a wood duck family as a male and female create a bond, migrate together across thousands of miles, nurture and protect a brood of chicks, then come full circle as they head to their wintering grounds.
NOVA: Ultimate Mars Challenge – 8pm
In August, a rover named Curiosity touched down inside Mars' Gale Crater, carrying 10 new instruments that will advance the quest for signs that Mars might once have been suitable for life. But Curiosity's mission is risky. After parachuting through the Martian atmosphere at twice the speed of sound, Curiosity was gently lowered to the planet's surface by a "sky crane." This first-of-its-kind system has been tested on Earth, but there was no guarantee it would work on Mars. With inside access to the massive team of scientists and engineers responsible for Curiosity's on-the-ground experiments, NOVA was there for the exhilarating moments after Curiosity's landing — and is there for the spectacular discoveries to come.

Wireless sensor networks have evolved rapidly in recent years. Nowadays, even application areas like industrial monitoring (example below) are targeted. These have been precluded for wireless sensors, since they have highest demands towards the reliability of network connections. Routing protocols which target this application area must provide a very high end-to-end reachability. Several methods are applied in state-of-the-art protocols to achieve this, e.g. channel hopping, multi- path routing, or retransmissions. A very interesting method is multi-path routing since it might enable the network to route packets around interferers and it can even cope with device failures. In the industrial environment there is heavy interference of the wireless channel in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, e.g. caused by machines, workers' mobile phones, or microwaves in the break room. In order to handle these circumstances reliable routing protocols usually utilize information gained from an estimation of the link quality. But interferences are usually unpredictable and therefore the link quality is also changing unpredictably. Thus the estimation of the link quality might not always be correct. Algorithms used for estimation of link quality are based on measured parameters like packet reception rate or received signal strength. Aim of this thesis is to examine how the accuracy of link quality estimation is influencing the performance of a routing protocol that relies on this information. Therefore, existing link quality estimator algorithms must be analyzed and a suitable model of a link quality estimator must be developed within an Omnet based simulation framework. Additionally, a routing protocol, e.g. WirelessHART (example above), must be implemented for the Omnet simulator which can be used for concluding evaluations.

Grounded oil rig: Waves smash over Shell ship but amazingly there is NO SIGN of a spill on Alaska shoreline
- The Kulluk was being towed by a 360-foot anchor handler and a tugboat when it broke away
- Grounded on rocks at the small uninhabited island of Sitkalidak in the Gulf of Alaska
- The Coast Guard planned to fly out early on Tuesday to plan a salvage operation and possible spill response
- The drilling rig drafts up to 40 feet and is carrying 150,000 gallons of diesel and about 12,000 gallons of lube oil and hydraulic fluid
- Team looked at site by air, determined that hull wasn't breached, no leaking
Crews aboard two aircraft flew over an oil drilling ship Tuesday that went aground in a severe Alaska storm and saw no sign that the vessel was leaking fuel or that its hull had been breached.
The Royal Dutch Shell drilling rig used this summer in the Arctic was aground off a small island near Kodiak Island, where the ship, the Kulluk, appeared stable.
'There is no sign of a release of any product,' federal on-scene response coordinator Capt. Paul Mehler said during a news conference at unified command center at an Anchorage hotel.

Stormy seas: Waves crashed over the mobile offshore drilling unit Kulluk, pictured, after it ran aground near Sitkalidak Island, Alaska
When the storm eases and weather permits, the plan is to get marine experts onboard the Kulluk to take photos and videos, and then come up with a more complete salvage plan.
The rig ran aground Monday on a sand and gravel shore off an uninhabited island in the Gulf of Alaska.
Mehler said the Kulluk is carrying about 143,000 gallons of diesel and about 12,000 gallons of lube oil and hydraulic fluid.
A Coast Guard C-130 plane and a helicopter were used to fly over the grounded vessel on Tuesday morning.
Ran aground: The Kulluk drilling rig, pictured, ran aground on an island in Alaska on Monday night during a fierce storm
Towing: The Kulluk drilling rig, pictured center, was being towed by a 360-foot anchor handler, the Aiviq, and a tugboat, the Alert, when it was grounded on rocks
Tug: The tug Aiviq, pictured, was towing the Kulluk when it broke away on December 31 and was driven to rocks just off Kodiak Island
The severe weather did not permit putting the marine experts on board the drilling rig, which is near shore and being pounded by stormy seas.
Mehler said there was a team of about 500 people working on a response to the situation 'with many more coming.'
The goal remains to get salvagers aboard the Kulluk and the ship refloated, he said.
A Shell official said the drilling rig was built with a double-sided hull of reinforced steel that is 3 inches thick.
It recently had undergone $292million in improvements before being put into service for a short time this past summer in the Beaufort Sea off Alaska's north coast.
Stormy weather eased Tuesday with waves 25 to 30 feet and winds reduced to about 35 mph. Winds were 70 mph and waves had reached 50 feet overnight, the National Weather Service said.
The drilling rig's difficulties go back to Thursday when it separated from a towing vessel south of Kodiak Island as it was being towed to Seattle for maintenance.
The rig grounded Monday night on a sand and gravel shore off the southeast side of Sitkalidak Island, an uninhabited island in the Gulf of Alaska.
Spill: The Coast Guard planned to fly out early on Tuesday to plan a salvage operation and possible spill response
Coast Guard: The Coast Guard HC-130 Hercules aircraft flies over the tugs Aiviq and Nanuq tandem as they towed the mobile drilling unit Kulluk 116 before it ran aground
Sean Churchfield, operations manager for Shell Alaska, said once the situation is under control an investigation will be conducted into the cause. He did not know whether the findings would be made public. The Coast Guard said it also would be investigating and its findings would be public.
U.S. Representative Ed Markey from Massachusetts, the top Democrat on the Natural Resources Committee, issued a statement Tuesday expressing his concerns about the Kulluk situation.
'Oil companies keep saying they can conquer the Arctic, but the Arctic keeps disagreeing with the oil companies,' Markey said.
Help: The crew of the Coast Guard Cutter, pictured, attempted to attach a tow line to the tug Aiviq in 20-foot waves 50 miles south of Kodiak, Alaska, on December 28, before the vessel lost its connection to the Kulluk
Calmer waters: The Kulluk drilling rig, pictured right with the tug Aiviq, is one of two Shell has stationed in Alaskan waters (file photo)
'Drilling expansion could prove disastrous for this sensitive environment.'
The Kulluk was being towed Monday by a 360-foot anchor handler, the Aiviq, and a tugboat, the Alert.
The vessels were moving north along Kodiak Island, trying to escape the worst of the storm. About 4.15pm, the drill ship separated from the Aiviq about 10 to 15 miles off shore.
The tug boat crew guided the drill ship to a place where it would cause the least environmental damage and cut it loose. It grounded at about 9pm.

After last week's post featuring my beloved Erdem blouse from Spring 2011, I continue to gleefully shop my own closet for warm weather clothes. From the deepest, darkest corner I pulled out this Inhibitus jumper from an incredible China trip 2 years ago. I had hoped that putting it on again would instantly transport me back to the fabulous shopping malls and bustling night markets of Hong Kong, but it sadly hasn't happened yet.
On the upside, I also managed to find my FLARE x ALDO wedges in the mess that is my shoe closet. I wore them out and about in some of the priciest luxury boutiques in the city one day, and the compliments came non-stop. These babies are universally adored. I always feel bad breaking the news, though, that they were a limited edition shoe from last year that has long since sold out. Perhaps we're due for another fabulous shoe collab. How about it, FLARE, ALDO?
