SPOILER ALERT: This column discusses events from Sunday's Walking Dead episode. Read with care if you haven't already seen the show. It was the biggest head fake in recent television history. Fans of The Walking Dead Sunday finally got an answer to the question that had been on their lips since late October, when long-running character Glenn Rhee was shown tumbling into a crowd of flesh-eating undead from the top of a dumpster with a hapless friend who had just shot himself. What we saw last night was the simplest of explanations. As some sharp-eyed fans noted, Glenn was positioned under his suicidal buddy Nicholas when they hit the ground, so the "walkers" (Walking Dead never calls them zombies) tore Nick's body to shreds. Though the Oct. 25 episode made it seem Glenn could have been on the menu, too, it turns out that he simply pulled himself under the dumpster and waited until the crowd of walkers left, to emerge freaked out but largely
unscathed. This, of course, has freaked out some fans who have relished the show's ruthlessness in killing off major characters. Saving Glenn in such an obvious way makes the scene shown in October – and the weeks of "is he dead?" speculation the show encouraged – feel like the kind of desperate ploy a program might try in its sixth season to stay relevant. The extent to which producers were nervous about faking out the show's devoted fan base was obvious during Sunday's post-episode analysis show Talking Dead. Host Chris Hardwick deftly avoided all but the briefest acknowledgement of fan anger during the show, focusing mostly on the joy that supporters of the character felt in seeing Glenn emerge alive. That highlights a longstanding criticism of Talking Dead – that it's a vehicle for managing fan expectations and enthusiasm to benefit the series, rather than a real platform to dissect all the questions on viewers' minds. "Sometimes good
guys survive," said Steven Yeun, who plays Glenn, during Talking Dead. Showrunner Scott Gimple explained further: "The story we were telling is one of uncertainty...When they leave (their homebase), that could be the last time you see them. (His wife) Maggie didn't know what happened to Glenn, and I wanted the audience to be exactly where she was." Mission accomplished. But at what cost? On the Oct. 25 Talking Dead episode after Glenn's dumpster plunge, Lost executive producer Damon Lindelof noted how TV shows often have "unkillables" in their cast. These are characters whose storylines are so central to the series, they can't leave the program until the show is over. The strength of the Walking Dead has always been the sense that very few characters are unkillable. Hero Rick Grimes, sword-wielding Michonne and arrow slinging hunter Darryl are surely among the toughest to remove. But fans still had a sense, even if it was sometimes pretense,
that the roster of unkillables on this show was smaller than many others. The reason: preserving the show's brutal sense of reality was more important. Realistically, it's tough to imagine this head-fake harming Walking Dead's popularity in the short term. Many fans had already concluded that the character was alive. For my part, given how handily Glenn shatters stereotypes about Asian-American TV characters, I'm mostly just relieved to see he hadn't died in such a pointless way. In the long term, however, the show has likely lost a little bit of credibility with fans. They now know how far the program will go to mislead them and avoid killing a favored character. It's not the kind of move that sinks a series alone. But too many maneuvers like it will, especially if the thin line between masterful and manipulative storytelling is violated once too often.
Records: Suspect in pastor's wife's death to face 13 charges
23 November 2015, 6:14 pm
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- An 18-year-old man arrested in the fatal shooting of an Indianapolis pastor's pregnant wife during an apparent home invasion will face 13 charges, including murder, according to court records updated Monday. Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry scheduled a Monday afternoon news conference to announce criminal charges in Amanda Blackburn's killing, but provided no other details. Online court records show Larry Jo Taylor Jr., who was arrested overnight on a preliminary murder charge in her death, faces 13 charges that include murder, burglary, criminal confinement while armed with a deadly weapon and robbery resulting in serious bodily injury. It wasn't clear if all the charges arose from Blackburn's killing, or if they might also include charges stemming from Taylor's alleged involvement in the burglary of a nearby home shortly before she was attacked. Taylor was being held at the Marion County Jail and it wasn't
immediately clear whether he has an attorney who can speak on his behalf. Blackburn, 28, was shot in the head during the Nov. 10 attack at she and her husband's Indianapolis home and died the next day. The couple's 15-month-old son, Weston, was at home upstairs in a crib but was not harmed in the attack. Her husband, Pastor Davey Blackburn, had gone to the gym that morning and returned home to find his wounded wife, who was 13 weeks pregnant at the time. He said in a statement Monday that he's "extremely relieved" police have arrested a suspect in her killing but said it doesn't "undo the pain we are feeling." "Though it does not undo the pain we are feeling, I was extremely relieved to get the news of the arrest made last night of Amanda's killer," Davey Blackburn said. Blackburn said investigators have told him they have a "solidly-built case." Blackburn said he hopes the "court system would have wisdom on how to prosecute this man, so that no one
else endures the pain Amanda and our family have had to endure because of his actions." Police have not released additional details on Taylor's arrest or the allegations he faces. Officers from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department's gang and violent crime units arrested Taylor with help from U.S. Marshals, police said in a news release. "All victims of criminal homicides deserve closure, and as a community we must send a collective message that violence is not an option," Police Chief Rick Hite said in a statement. "Our detectives have worked tirelessly going days without sleep to solve murders in our city." Authorities said investigators would continue to follow all leads, including talking with individuals who may have knowledge of the case. Taylor also faces misdemeanor public nudity and public indecency charges stemming from an unrelated June incident where he allegedly exposed himself to a woman in a parking lot, court records show.
Investigators believe the suspect, whom neighbors also reported seeing walking in the area, may have seen Davey Blackburn leave that morning shortly after the suspect allegedly burglarized a nearby house. Police had sought the public's help by circulating images of a man caught on home surveillance cameras. The Blackburns moved to Indianapolis from South Carolina to found the independent Resonate Church in 2012.

22 November 2015, 8:39 pm
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The 32 American men and women chosen as Rhodes scholars include a member of the U.S. National Rowing Team, an Alzheimer's disease social activist and a Harvard student who holds a Guinness World Record for balancing on an exercise ball. The winners announced Sunday by the Rhodes Trust were chosen from 869 applicants who were endorsed by 316 colleges and universities. The scholarships cover all expenses for two or three years of post-graduate study at England's Oxford University starting next October. The winners include Jennifer Hebert, a member of the U.S. National Rowing Team and University of Pennsylvania senior who is concentrating on the biological basis of behavior, and Ericka Wheeler, a senior at Millsaps College in Mississippi who was inspired to become a doctor after watching her grandfather suffer with Alzheimer's disease. Hebert works to help and instruct physically and cognitively disabled rowers. Wheeler
has worked with Alzheimer's patients to write down their life stories, producing documents for their families. "I'm shocked and overwhelmed right now," Wheeler said. "I couldn't believe it when they announced it. I'm still trying to process it." Garrett Lam is studying neurobiology and philosophy at Harvard, where he is the executive editor of the Harvard Crimson. He also holds the Guinness world record for standing on an exercise ball for 5 hours and 25 minutes, a feat he undertook to raise money for charity. "It's really a dream come true," Lam said of the scholarship. "Oxford is the hub of all the things I really care about." Lam told The Associated Press that he wants to go into criminal justice reform and change the "current punitive sentences that we have." The American students will join an international group of scholars chosen from 16 jurisdictions around the world. A total of nearly 90 scholars are selected worldwide each year. The
scholarships are worth about $50,000 per year. --- Online: Rhodes Scholars: http://tinyurl.com/pqbcz4p

22 November 2015, 5:16 pm
NEW YORK (AP) -- Emergency responders in New York City staged a drill simulating active shooters in a Manhattan subway station in the wake of the Paris attacks. The Sunday morning drill in Lower Manhattan came just days before one of the city's most high-profile events, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The drill has been planned for some time but got a last-minute update after the deadly Paris attacks: Officials added an attacker wearing a suicide vest. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio says the drill showed that the city is "fundamentally prepared." Police Commissioner William Bratton says exercises like the subway drill "are vitally necessary" and provide lessons for emergency responders.

21 November 2015, 7:48 pm
WASHINGTON (AP) -- As a Peace Corps volunteer, expert in global health and the mother of a 7-year-old boy, Anita Ashok Datar devoted her life to caring for and helping others, her family said. Datar, of Takoma Park, Maryland, was one of at least 19 people killed in Friday's terror attack on a hotel in Mali, the State Department confirmed in a statement. No other U.S. citizens were believed to have died in the attack, carried out by heavily armed Islamic extremists at a Radisson hotel in the Malian capital of Bamako. "We are devastated that Anita is gone," her family said in a statement issued through the State Department. "It's unbelievable to us that she has been killed in this senseless act of violence and terrorism." Datar, 41, was a senior manager at Palladium Group, an international development organization with offices in Washington, her family said. As a public health expert, she focused on family planning and HIV issues, work that
took her to Africa often in the past 15 years. She also worked in Asia and South America, according to her LinkedIn profile. Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was among those mourning her death. "Anita Datar was a bright light who gave help and hope to people in need around the world," Clinton said in a statement on Saturday. "Anita represented the best of America's generous spirit." Datar was the former partner of David Garten, an attorney who worked as a senior policy adviser to Clinton in the Senate. "Everything she did in her life she did to help others - as a mother, public health expert, daughter, sister and friend," the family statement said. "And while we are angry and saddened that she has been killed, we know that she would want to promote education and healthcare to prevent violence and poverty at home and abroad, not intolerance." The family said that of all her accomplishments, Datar was "most proud of her son." Her Facebook
page is filled with pictures of the boy. Born in Massachusetts, Datar grew up in New Jersey and graduated from Rutgers, her family said. She worked in Senegal with the Peace Corps for more than two years and earned master's degrees in public health and public administration from Columbia. In addition to her son, parents and a brother, she is survived by "many, many friends around the world," the statement said. Clinton said Datar's death should strengthen Americans' will to fight terrorism and radical jihadism. "We face a choice between fear and resolve," she said. "Anita's murder should deepen our resolve. America must lead the world to meet this threat." --- This story has been corrected to show that the official toll from the attack is 19 victims dead, rather than 20.
Town saddened by girl's slaying seeks 'Justice for Gabbi'
21 November 2015, 7:24 pm
SCOTTSVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- Pink ribbons and balloons decorate a town saddened by the slaying of a 7-year-old girl, and a sign reads "Justice for Gabbi." But no one is certain Scottsville, a peaceful community of 5,000, will ever be the same. Kentucky State Police arrested Timothy Madden, 38, of Scottsville, on Friday and charged him with murder, kidnapping, first-degree rape and first-degree sodomy. The arrest came six days after Gabriella Doolin disappeared during a football game and was found dead less than a half-hour later in a creek. The arrest warrant said she died of manual strangulation and drowning. "In a small, rural community like ours, you read about those things happening, but you don't ever imagine them happening in your hometown," Allen County Judge-Executive Johnny Hobdy said Friday. Just before a news conference Friday at the state police post in Bowling Green, Madden was taken in handcuffs to a squad car. A reporter asked
if he had anything to say, and Madden replied, "I'm innocent." Madden's arraignment is scheduled for Monday afternoon in Allen District Court in Scottsville, according to the court docket. Innocent is a word townspeople might have used once to describe Scottsville, a rural town near the Tennessee state line. "It's changed everybody's mindset," Chris Carter, who has four children, said of Gabbi's killing. Carter went away to college but returned to raise his family in the quiet community where he grew up. "Those days are changed," he said. "The real world has come here." At the Doolins' white-frame home outside Scottsville, several vehicles were parked in the yard Friday afternoon. A trampoline was set up in the backyard, a basketball goal in the front, and a cat and kittens were on the front step. A woman answering the door declined to comment and asked a reporter to leave. The girl's father had harsh words about the suspect on his Facebook page posted
Friday. "This animal should not be walking and breathing," Brian Doolin wrote. Madden was being held in the Barren County jail on $1 million bond. State police post commander Capt. John Clark would not release any other details about Madden, citing the ongoing investigation. The police citation in the case said Madden's DNA collected during the investigation matched that recovered from the child during the autopsy. Gabbi, as she was called, was reported missing about 7:40 p.m. on Nov. 14 by her mother while they were at a football game at Allen County-Scottsville High School in south-central Kentucky. Her body was found about 25 minutes later in a creek in a wooded area behind the school. The girl was playing with other children during the game, state police Trooper B.J. Eaton said. The creek where her body was found was just a few hundred yards from the football field. Doolin's funeral was held Thursday at Scottsville Baptist Church. Members of the
Scottsville community lined the streets holding pink and blue balloons to release as the hearse carrying her body drove by. Hobdy said people in Scottsville were mourning with the family. "This whole community shared in the grief and will for a long time to come," he said. Carter, whose two boys and two girls range in age from 1 to 16, said he has already changed his approach to parenting and has become more cautious. "I don't let my kids out anymore without me being right there with them," he said Friday afternoon while picking up one of his daughters from school. Kathy Saylors, picking up her granddaughter from school Friday afternoon, said she expects more precautions to be taken for children as a result of Gabbi's death. Her 8-year-old grandson rode the school bus with Gabbi and told Saylors he was scared after Gabbi was killed. "You take things for granted that nothing's going to happen," she said. "But now that it's hit home, it'll be different.
Allen County will never be the same."
Ta-Nehisi Coates On His Work And The Painful Process Of Getting Conscious

Writer Ta-Nehisi Coates speaks onstage at the 2015 New Yorker Festival last month.
Anna Webber/Getty Images for The New Yorker
It has been quite a year for journalist and author Ta-Nehisi Coates: All of which has taken place at a time when this country has been deeply engaged in questions about race. Coates spoke with All Things Considered's Michel Martin by phone just as he was about to return to Paris, where he and his family have been living for the past few months. Interview Highlights About dedicating his National Book Award to Prince Jones I met him at Howard University. We were friends — not best of friends, but we were friends — and he was killed in 2000 by a Prince George's County police officer who followed him from Prince George's County through Washington into Virginia and shot him mere yards from his fiance's home.... When Prince died, nothing happened. Nothing happened. The officer was not punished by his department, he wasn't prosecuted. ... And I had a young son at the time, and so it really, really bothered me — I'd always been aware
about what could happen to me, but I was very, really very much worried about my son. And so for 15 years I just stewed on this. And it really, really bothered me that people did not remember this young man's name. He just did not deserve to die the way he died, and it was completely forgotten....
There are two burdens of racism in this country. The first is the actual burden — you know, sort of socioeconomics that we see all the time, wealth gap, life expectancy, death rate, those sorts of things. But then there's another portion of this that folks ask you to accept, and that is the notion that somehow this is not really tied to our long history — really our 250-year, almost 400-year history — of policy directed toward African-Americans. That somehow this is our fault, or partly our fault.... Between The World And Me is my complete rejection of that idea. It may well be our responsibility, but it certainly is not our fault. Prince Jones bears no fault in how he was killed. None. Absolutely none. He was not just killed by the officer, he was killed by the heritage of this country, which has for centuries dealt in the criminalization of black folks. And that allowed for the presumption that the son of a radiologist, a Howard University
student with a daughter who had just been born, about to be married — that this man was somehow a criminal. It allowed for police officers to track him through three municipalities and kill him. I just won't say that that was okay. I won't write that off as a mistake. About the popularity and impact of his work There is some group of Americans who are really, really curious to understand how we ended up at this point, where every week it seems like you can turn on your TV and see some sort of abuse being heaped on black people. But I don't draw the conclusion that it's, say, a critical mass of Americans who will go forth and create some sort of long-term policy. I would like that to be true — that'd be beautiful — but I don't think one should confuse the book-buying audience, the audience that reads The Atlantic, with the entire country. It's a big country. About how he writes I try to be as direct as I possibly can. I don't attempt to
make people uncomfortable; I think that my standards in terms of art and journalism always have necessitated my discomfort. The process of getting conscious for me was a very, very uncomfortable, disturbing and sometimes physically painful process. And so that's the standard to which I write, because it was what I've experienced over my time. ... You take a work like, a book like Between The World And Me. As I said, I've been thinking about that for 15 years. Reparations and stuff I've done for The Atlantic mag, these are projects that I've really had — they come from living in the society and thinking and reading about things for a period of time. ... I just went on this long thing about Prince, but see, I spent like years researching what happened in that case, you know what I mean? I talked to his mother, I met Prince's, his daughter, I've met his sister ... I knew Prince. Even as I sound strident in my rhetoric, it's actually rooted on having
actually done some reporting around it. On if he feels there's pressure for him to be a sort of oracle of race I've been very, very careful to tell people what I am qualified to talk about and what I'm not qualified to talk about. And some of that has to do with black folks — black experience is big and it's nuanced and it's broad, and no one person should be the spokesperson for that experience, or no one person should be the oracle or be the articulator. And as I've told young people around the country, they should be skeptical of people who attempt to appoint themselves as that. I don't want that job at all. I think you have a number of talented African-American writers — some young, some more experienced — who've done just brilliant work. Work that I've frankly depended on in my own writing. [Writers] who I think, taken together, can give us some sense of the nuance and the texture of the black experience. But you don't really want to
get that from one person's work, and you certainly don't want to get it from one book. On whether he still fasts on Thanksgiving No! No, no! Although in recent years I've been thinking about bringing it back. My dad, he preferred to use Thanksgiving as a day of reflection. And the main thing we had to reflect on was what had happened to the Native Americans, happened to the land that we live on now. And we would actually think about that. And I hated it when I was a kid — absolutely, absolutely hated it. And then I stopped doing it as I got older. And then I had a family and I stopped doing it then, because I thought family traditions were very important. But as my son has gotten older — he's 15 now — and looking at my own work, and how important history and reflection and memory is in my own work, I don't know that it was such a bad idea. So I've often thought about going back to it. On his father's reaction to his writing This goes
back to the first book — my rule has always been that he should understand what I'm doing before I do it. Because our relationship, to him and my mom, is way more important than any book. And so he's seen everything before it actually came out. With the first book I told him what was going to be in there before I even wrote it, and asked him, was he cool with it? He said yeah, and I showed it to him. ... He read the second book too. He had changes, but none of the changes were about him. They were about things that he thought could make the book better. He's always been very, very firm in the notion that it's my story.

21 November 2015, 7:48 pm
WASHINGTON (AP) -- As a Peace Corps volunteer, expert in global health and the mother of a 7-year-old boy, Anita Ashok Datar devoted her life to caring for and helping others, her family said. Datar, of Takoma Park, Maryland, was one of at least 19 people killed in Friday's terror attack on a hotel in Mali, the State Department confirmed in a statement. No other U.S. citizens were believed to have died in the attack, carried out by heavily armed Islamic extremists at a Radisson hotel in the Malian capital of Bamako. "We are devastated that Anita is gone," her family said in a statement issued through the State Department. "It's unbelievable to us that she has been killed in this senseless act of violence and terrorism." Datar, 41, was a senior manager at Palladium Group, an international development organization with offices in Washington, her family said. As a public health expert, she focused on family planning and HIV issues, work that
took her to Africa often in the past 15 years. She also worked in Asia and South America, according to her LinkedIn profile. Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was among those mourning her death. "Anita Datar was a bright light who gave help and hope to people in need around the world," Clinton said in a statement on Saturday. "Anita represented the best of America's generous spirit." Datar was the former partner of David Garten, an attorney who worked as a senior policy adviser to Clinton in the Senate. "Everything she did in her life she did to help others - as a mother, public health expert, daughter, sister and friend," the family statement said. "And while we are angry and saddened that she has been killed, we know that she would want to promote education and healthcare to prevent violence and poverty at home and abroad, not intolerance." The family said that of all her accomplishments, Datar was "most proud of her son." Her Facebook
page is filled with pictures of the boy. Born in Massachusetts, Datar grew up in New Jersey and graduated from Rutgers, her family said. She worked in Senegal with the Peace Corps for more than two years and earned master's degrees in public health and public administration from Columbia. In addition to her son, parents and a brother, she is survived by "many, many friends around the world," the statement said. Clinton said Datar's death should strengthen Americans' will to fight terrorism and radical jihadism. "We face a choice between fear and resolve," she said. "Anita's murder should deepen our resolve. America must lead the world to meet this threat." --- This story has been corrected to show that the official toll from the attack is 19 victims dead, rather than 20.
Town saddened by girl's slaying seeks 'Justice for Gabbi'
21 November 2015, 7:24 pm
SCOTTSVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- Pink ribbons and balloons decorate a town saddened by the slaying of a 7-year-old girl, and a sign reads "Justice for Gabbi." But no one is certain Scottsville, a peaceful community of 5,000, will ever be the same. Kentucky State Police arrested Timothy Madden, 38, of Scottsville, on Friday and charged him with murder, kidnapping, first-degree rape and first-degree sodomy. The arrest came six days after Gabriella Doolin disappeared during a football game and was found dead less than a half-hour later in a creek. The arrest warrant said she died of manual strangulation and drowning. "In a small, rural community like ours, you read about those things happening, but you don't ever imagine them happening in your hometown," Allen County Judge-Executive Johnny Hobdy said Friday. Just before a news conference Friday at the state police post in Bowling Green, Madden was taken in handcuffs to a squad car. A reporter asked
if he had anything to say, and Madden replied, "I'm innocent." Madden's arraignment is scheduled for Monday afternoon in Allen District Court in Scottsville, according to the court docket. Innocent is a word townspeople might have used once to describe Scottsville, a rural town near the Tennessee state line. "It's changed everybody's mindset," Chris Carter, who has four children, said of Gabbi's killing. Carter went away to college but returned to raise his family in the quiet community where he grew up. "Those days are changed," he said. "The real world has come here." At the Doolins' white-frame home outside Scottsville, several vehicles were parked in the yard Friday afternoon. A trampoline was set up in the backyard, a basketball goal in the front, and a cat and kittens were on the front step. A woman answering the door declined to comment and asked a reporter to leave. The girl's father had harsh words about the suspect on his Facebook page posted
Friday. "This animal should not be walking and breathing," Brian Doolin wrote. Madden was being held in the Barren County jail on $1 million bond. State police post commander Capt. John Clark would not release any other details about Madden, citing the ongoing investigation. The police citation in the case said Madden's DNA collected during the investigation matched that recovered from the child during the autopsy. Gabbi, as she was called, was reported missing about 7:40 p.m. on Nov. 14 by her mother while they were at a football game at Allen County-Scottsville High School in south-central Kentucky. Her body was found about 25 minutes later in a creek in a wooded area behind the school. The girl was playing with other children during the game, state police Trooper B.J. Eaton said. The creek where her body was found was just a few hundred yards from the football field. Doolin's funeral was held Thursday at Scottsville Baptist Church. Members of the
Scottsville community lined the streets holding pink and blue balloons to release as the hearse carrying her body drove by. Hobdy said people in Scottsville were mourning with the family. "This whole community shared in the grief and will for a long time to come," he said. Carter, whose two boys and two girls range in age from 1 to 16, said he has already changed his approach to parenting and has become more cautious. "I don't let my kids out anymore without me being right there with them," he said Friday afternoon while picking up one of his daughters from school. Kathy Saylors, picking up her granddaughter from school Friday afternoon, said she expects more precautions to be taken for children as a result of Gabbi's death. Her 8-year-old grandson rode the school bus with Gabbi and told Saylors he was scared after Gabbi was killed. "You take things for granted that nothing's going to happen," she said. "But now that it's hit home, it'll be different.
Allen County will never be the same."
Ta-Nehisi Coates On His Work And The Painful Process Of Getting Conscious

Writer Ta-Nehisi Coates speaks onstage at the 2015 New Yorker Festival last month.
Anna Webber/Getty Images for The New Yorker
It has been quite a year for journalist and author Ta-Nehisi Coates: All of which has taken place at a time when this country has been deeply engaged in questions about race. Coates spoke with All Things Considered's Michel Martin by phone just as he was about to return to Paris, where he and his family have been living for the past few months. Interview Highlights About dedicating his National Book Award to Prince Jones I met him at Howard University. We were friends — not best of friends, but we were friends — and he was killed in 2000 by a Prince George's County police officer who followed him from Prince George's County through Washington into Virginia and shot him mere yards from his fiance's home.... When Prince died, nothing happened. Nothing happened. The officer was not punished by his department, he wasn't prosecuted. ... And I had a young son at the time, and so it really, really bothered me — I'd always been aware
about what could happen to me, but I was very, really very much worried about my son. And so for 15 years I just stewed on this. And it really, really bothered me that people did not remember this young man's name. He just did not deserve to die the way he died, and it was completely forgotten....
There are two burdens of racism in this country. The first is the actual burden — you know, sort of socioeconomics that we see all the time, wealth gap, life expectancy, death rate, those sorts of things. But then there's another portion of this that folks ask you to accept, and that is the notion that somehow this is not really tied to our long history — really our 250-year, almost 400-year history — of policy directed toward African-Americans. That somehow this is our fault, or partly our fault.... Between The World And Me is my complete rejection of that idea. It may well be our responsibility, but it certainly is not our fault. Prince Jones bears no fault in how he was killed. None. Absolutely none. He was not just killed by the officer, he was killed by the heritage of this country, which has for centuries dealt in the criminalization of black folks. And that allowed for the presumption that the son of a radiologist, a Howard University
student with a daughter who had just been born, about to be married — that this man was somehow a criminal. It allowed for police officers to track him through three municipalities and kill him. I just won't say that that was okay. I won't write that off as a mistake. About the popularity and impact of his work There is some group of Americans who are really, really curious to understand how we ended up at this point, where every week it seems like you can turn on your TV and see some sort of abuse being heaped on black people.

SentinelOne has added a feature to its endpoint detection products that can restore files encrypted by cybercriminals, a common type of attack known as ransomware.
The "rollback" feature will be available in the 1.6 versions of its Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) and the Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) products at no charge, said Dal Gemmell, director of product management.
SentinelOne is among several vendors that are trying to displace traditional antivirus vendors with products that detect malware using deep analysis rather than signature-based detection.
The company's products use a lightweight agent on endpoints such as laptops and desktops, which looks at the core of the operating system -- the kernel -- as well the the user space, trying to spot changes that might be linked to malware.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- State investigators looking into the death of an unarmed black Minneapolis man shot by police during a scuffle are trying to determine whether he was restrained at the time, as some witnesses allege. Police initially said Jamar ONeal Clark was not handcuffed when he was shot, but authorities later said handcuffs were at the scene and that they are trying to determine whether Clark was restrained. "We're still examining whether or not they were on Mr. Clark or whether or not they were just (fallen) at the scene. That's what we're trying to ascertain," state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension Superintendent Drew Evans said at a news conference Tuesday. Clark, 24, died Monday, a day after police shot him during an early morning dispute. Police said the incident began when they were called to north Minneapolis around 12:45 a.m. Sunday following a report of an assault. When they arrived, a man was interfering with paramedics
who were helping the victim, police said. Officers tried to calm him, but there was a struggle. An officer fired at least once, hitting the man, police said. The shooting sparked protests, including one Monday night in which hundreds of people blocked traffic on an interstate highway, leading to 42 arrests. A nationwide movement - Black Lives Matter - spawned by the killing of black 18-year-old Michael Brown in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson last year has demanded an end to police killings and the use of excessive force against unarmed black suspects. Evans said investigators have video from several sources, including an ambulance, a mobile police camera stationed in the area, public housing cameras and citizens' cellphones. But he said none of the videos captured the entire incident and none will be released while the investigation is ongoing to avoid possibly tainting it. Asked whether any of the video shows Clark in handcuffs, Department of Public
Safety spokesman Bruce Gordon reiterated that it captures a portion of the incident, but not everything, and said officials can't discuss specifics because it could potentially taint witness statements. Pressed on the timeline for results of the BCA investigation, Evans said two to four months is typical but that the Clark case "has been given top priority." The FBI also has agreed to conduct a civil rights investigation into the shooting. Authorities have said the officers involved weren't wearing body cameras. Evans said there is no police dashcam video of the shooting. He declined to release any identifying information about the officers, including their race, pending interviews. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office ruled Tuesday that Clark died from a gunshot wound to the head. Clark's father previously told The Associated Press that his son was shot over his left eye. Clark's brother, Jamine Robinson, 32, of Rochester, told the AP that
family members went to the hospital Monday evening to take Clark off life support. He said he didn't go because he didn't want to see his brother in a hospital bed. "I want the officer to be arrested, prosecuted and put in jail for eternity. Life without parole," said Robinson. Protesters have set up tents around the 4th Precinct station near where the shooting occurred and said they won't leave until authorities release any video they have of the incident along with the identities of the officers involved. The protests are just the latest expression of tension between the department and minorities in the city. The rocky relations have led to discussions between police and minorities and the creation of task forces designed to quell concerns. This spring, Minneapolis was selected for a U.S. Justice Department program to rebuild trust between police and the communities they patrol. --- Follow Amy Forliti on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/amyforliti .

Calls mount to remove metal detectors from NYC schools
18 November 2015, 2:12 pm
NEW YORK (AP) -- A student has not been shot in a New York City school over the past 13 years, an era when school shootings across the United States have become sadly commonplace. But there is a growing cry to rid the city's schools of metal detectors, the very tool some observers credit with keeping them safe.
Some parent groups and advocates say the scanners installed at the city's most troubled institutions more than two decades ago are now unneeded because of low crime rates, and they condemn them as discriminatory, since by and large they sit in schools serving minority neighborhoods.
