room, beth did something very important. she realized that the library's collections of papers of leading colonial and national figures contained papers and, and information about people who were not those people, but other people, the people who surrounded them, and very often, those people were slaves. that information takes the form of, men, mentions in letters, journals, and farm records, but sometimes it consists of letters written by the slaves themselves, and this was the case of paul jennings, the paul jennings letters that beth found in the dolly madison papers. often, documents, it's interesting to realize that documents like these survive very often really just because they were swept up into the papers of prominent people, people who were recognized for being prominent. and in some cases, we can assume that these records are the only written records of these lives. so they're really very valuable things that we more or less incidentally have in the manuscript division. beth's accomplishment in this book is that s

the beth shalom synagague draws a packed house for its annual latke party. the feast on sunday featured the always- popular potato latkes and something new this year: traditional matzah ball soup. congregation members worked togther to make thousands of matzah balls for the meal. the annual celebration has special meaning to peter boe. he is a holocaust survivor and pastor at st. paul lutheran church. he was evacuated from latvia to germany when he was 5 years old and to america when he was 11. law enforcement officers and emergency personnel from dakota county are treated to a meal. the south sioux city knights of columbususut on a free dinner saturday for the agencies. organizers say it's a way to thank them for their service. it's also a chance for veteran members to bond and share stories with younger members. the dinner was made possible through donations from dakota county businesses. people in developing countries around the world will be able to have clean, safe drinking water thanks to the efforts of zens of volunteers a aunited methodist church in

mary beth, good to have you on the program. look, this group led by muktar bel muktar claiming credit for this attack, what more do you know about him? first of all, is he alive or is he dead? >> i don't think anybody really knows. certainly the libyan government reported him to have passed as a result of u.s. air strikes this past june, but as you know, al qaeda has denied that from the beginning. he's certainly evaded death before. >> the organization that he leads is one of a number of islamic groups, correct, that have been active in mali this year with at least two other attacks, correct? >> that's correct. actually, earlier this year the particular group that muktar led had an opportunity to join isis, and he declined toosdz, which is interesting i think. >> as recently as 2013, french forces, if we're talking about greater mali reversed an all-out al qaeda take-over of most of mali, correct? i believe timbucktu was essentially gone. and the forces were moving close to bamako, correct? >> they were. they were pushed back

beth, linn county attorney jerry vander sanden told jurors to just believe their eyes and ears. surveillance video captured the knife attack and witnesses heard what the defendant said. but defense attorney david grinde said that evidence wasn't the whole story. the prosecution told jurors the action of the defendant couldn't be clearer. he replayed a 10 minute video of the knife attack and read portions of luerkens journal in which he made a "to do" list that included killing lynnsey. the defense emphasized the evidence that showed luerkens suffered from a major depressive disorder. the defense wants jurors to consider a lesser charge. "there's no hesitation, no waffling the is passed. just vicious, just brutal " "he obviously suffers from a mental illness, a disease. so the jury can consider a variety of charges starting with a conviction of first degree murder. luerkens defense lawyer did not ask for a verdict of not guilty. rather, he suggested a conviction of 2nd degree murder due to the defendant's mental issues. one thing the jury can't consider is not guilty by reason of
