" What do you think theyre doing Its just that people should be aware of how much information barely literate rural police officers can get up in about 15 minutes But you do think that its necessary Absolutely How can you not have it With keyword technology you say bomb and there is a level that you can put on language that can be monitored I would say to 99999% of Americans this isnt a problem You think theyre actually gonna listen to your phone calls Theyre gonna listen to your phone calls if a key word goes off And they should be No matter what you think about the Patriot Act all youve gotta do is look at the sophistication of ISIS Its a whole new ball game Whats your opinion on someone like Edward Snowden I think he should stay in Moscow There is a lot to be worried about but having your phone calls monitored should not be high on the list But if the guy three doors down is planning to blow up the stock exchange and is stupid enough to be talking on the phone I hope theyre monitoring it What was the inspiration for the character of Chay Maryland the New York Times journalist I wanted to put a journalist in an interesting moral conundrum Im totally in favor of freedom of the press but where do you get into areas of what is not only the moral but the legal and social responsibility I hate to make it sound too grand but thats been the thesis of everything [my] company has done whether it was Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee or Law & Order A long time ago I said to a shrink "Am I paranoid" He said "No you just carry around a lot of anticipatory negativity" I said for years that there are no black and white issues everything is shades of gray That still holds truethere are things in terms of barbarity toward civilians in a variety of venues where I cant see much of a shade of gray But short of terrorist acts there is a legitimate point of view for many many sides of very difficult questions Its a scary time I think “If you see something say something” is very true Im not suggesting that we should all go around paranoid about strange-looking delivery vans but if somebody had seen the first Tsarnaev put down his backpack and walk away from itwho knows What do you think is our biggest national security threat Terrorism writ largeand thats domestic and foreign What new TV shows movies and books do you think are addressing issues like terrorism in the most interesting ways I hate to say not many Homeland obviously The Americans which I have no objection to but dont watch on a regular basis Im at a loss I dont know really nothing is leaping to mind Do you think more people should be trying to make art out of these issues Look “making art” is complimentary but Ive never considered myself an artistIm a storyteller and a producer Honestly I can say Law & Order and SVU have done a good job at being incredibly accurate in their depictions of many issues Ive said for years the first half is a murder mystery and the second half is a moral mystery in the episodes that really work Those types of moral conundrums to me are morally interesting but they are not the raison dtre for many other shows on television Mariska [Hargitay] has become not a feminist but a female icon for an incredibly important cause: rape kitsits kind of mind-boggling that the information is literally sitting on shelves Anytime I get an opportunity and can wrangle everybody around the idea of doing difficult areas its great The books are an attempt to explore [these] areas in more depth than you can in an hour of televisionbut I sure hope somebody will buy them because I think theyd be a great hour-long standalone series Speaking of new series what can your fans expect from your new show You the Jury If we get to do this and it comes out the way we all hope it will its going to be unique and really fun to take the type of technology thats already being used in The Voice and have an audience be able to literally participate in a trial by having the ability to answer the question when somebody is testifying of “Do you believe this guy or not” The cases are misdemeanor civil cases so its not as if youre going to have to judge somebody going away for 20 yearsalthough I sure would love to do a criminal version but thatll never happen But I dont consider that a moral issue show I think thats bread and circuses Contact us at editors@timecomEight persons have been confirmed killed in the last 48 hours in Barkin Ladi LGA of Plateau State by unknown gunmen Five of them were said to have been killed on Tuesday at Gana-Ropp village while the other three which included a Pastor were attacked and killed at Nding village of Barkin Ladi LGA on Thursday morning Reacting to the attack the Christian Association of Nigeria CAN condemned the killings calling on the residents of Barkin Ladi to be very vigilant as security agencies embark on a manhunt for the perpetrators The chairman of CAN (Northern zone) Rev Yakubu Pam in a statement on Thursday said the gunmen escaped from the scene of the attacks after killing their victims at the mining site He expressed regrets on the manner the local miners were shot dead noting that it was an indication that some people were plotting to return Plateau State back to its dark days of the past The statement read in part: “Let me tell you that there is no resting place for the wicked; these evil men would definitely be caught by the law enforcement personnel very soon” Pam stressed “The killers of Gyang Jillim Lamba David and a woman named Rebecca at the tin mining site of Razat must be brought to justice to serve as deterrence to other merchants of death planning such heinous crimes” Meanwhile the spokesperson of Plateau State Police Command Matthias Tyopev a Deputy Superintendent of Police

sexual abuse back when she was 15 and he was the sports physician at Michigan State University On the stand she spoke to Nassar of the biblical description of the final judgment "where all of God’s wrath and eternal terror is poured out on men like you"She continued: "Should you ever reach the point of truly facing what you have done the guilt will be crushing And that is what makes the gospel of Christ so sweet Because it extends grace and hope and mercy where none should be found And it will be there for you I pray you experience the soul-crushing weight of guilt so you may someday experience true repentance and true forgiveness from God which you need far more than forgiveness from me – though I extend that to you as well"On her Facebook page Denhollander cites quotes from the Rev Edwin H Rian and theologian and Presbyterian pastor Francis SchaefferAfter quoting CS Lewis during her statement she said "Larry I can call what you did evil and wicked because it was And I can

extraterrestrial Emery Smith This strange ‘alien’ skeleton is actually a human fetus with genetic bone defects By Matt WarrenMar 22 2018 1:00 PM Ending a long-standing mystery that once set the unidentified flying object community abuzz researchers have sequenced the entire genome of a strange 15-centimeter-tall human skeleton and identified mutations that may be responsible for its odd appearance The specimen discovered in the Chilean desert in 2003 had puzzled scientists because of its skeletal deformities and bone development that seemed much more advanced than its size suggested But a comparison of its DNA to that of another human has revealed several mutations in genes involved in bone disorders—and confirmed once and for all that this being is definitely from our world The skeleton was apparently discovered in a small leather sack in a deserted village in Chile’s Atacama Desert (giving the specimen its name Ata) though the study’s senior author Garry Nolan an immunologist at Stanford University in Palo Alto California acknowledges that its history is “a bit murky” Ata eventually found its way to Spain where it caught the attention of filmmakers producing a documentary about alien life Nolan offered to sequence the specimen’s DNA—on the condition that if he found that it wasn’t an alien the documentary would make that clear As Science reported at the time Nolan found that Ata was very clearly human but he was left questioning what exactly caused the specimen’s odd skeletal structure One of the central questions was why Ata—only 15 centimeters tall and thus the size of a 5-month-old fetus—had bone development in the growth plates of its knees that would normally be seen in a 6-year-old This led to speculation that Ata could be a child with a new form of dwarfism But others believed that Ata was a fetus with genetic mutations that caused its advanced bone age as well as a raft of other disorders such as having two pairs of ribs fewer than normal and an oddly shaped head The team took samples from Ata’s bone marrow and sequenced the DNA mapping it against a human reference genome They found once again that Ata was most definitely human but also that she was female and based on the preservation of her DNA was born within the past 500 years—though her skeleton was discovered so well-preserved that she is probably mere decades old Nolan says Ata’s DNA also indicated that she was likely to be of Chilean origin; she had traces of European and Asian ancestry that suggests she is a product of fairly recent migrations The analysis of Ata’s DNA identified about 3 million single nucleotide variants (SNVs) places where a “letter” in the genetic code differs between individuals To examine whether any of these could account for her abnormalities the researchers focused just on SNVs in regions involved in creating proteins and filtered out variants that are commonly found in the general population whittling them down to just 54 Many of these mutations had never been described before but the researchers found that most of them occurred on genes known to be involved in skeletal formation and which had previously been implicated in bone disorders they report today in Genome Research For example they identified SNVs in genes encoding the collagen proteins that make up bone and cartilage and in genes where other mutations have caused defects similar to Ata’s such as fewer-than-normal ribs or short stature Nolan says the analysis reveals that Ata was almost certainly a preterm birth who had an assortment of mutations in her DNA that together could explain her unusual disorders “This specimen had the bad luck lottery” he says “We all are born with multiple mutations and that’s evolution but sometimes the mutations all align badly” Not everyone agrees with these conclusions Geneticist Michael Briggs from Newcastle University in Newcastle upon Tyne UK, design a game that really encourages experimenting
