harris faulkner has it from the breaking news desk. >> reporter: whose body is it? police talking now with families of missing women in norfolk and sf uffolk counties. they've gone to complicated links using dna and still have no idea who the woman is because of decomposition. so far they have this from the bone and other fragments they've been able to test. she was between the ages of 15-23 years old, 5-foot four, 5-foot 6 inches tall, with high cheek bones. that's not a lot to go on. the story is breaking since sunday in the u.k., when a dog walker came across the remains on a vast property blanking -- belonging to the queen of england, called sandringham, the estate there, where the royals spend a lot of their holidays. there is suspicion today that the dna might match that of alisa demetriava of cambridge, she was last seen 10 miles from those royal grounds. police are now saying they don't want to jump to any conclusions. they, however, there was no ivy growing on the body and that means something to them, like maybe the body wasn't put there any earlier than a

he points out in other ways how as faulkner would say, the past is not the past, it's still with us invery way. like the code name he points out that the navy seals gave to their target in pakistan, osama bin laden: geronimo. most striking to me is something i want to dwell on for a minute s professor cohen's theme that the first sustained campaign against americans was a terrorist campaign. this is the french-sponsored series of indian raids along the american frontier in places like deerfield, massachusetts, not far from where my family lived for many years. in his description the massacre at fort william henry had somewhat the same effect on colonial americans as the attacks on the world trade center and the pentagon did to americans ten years ago. a galvanizing effect that not only provoked a response, but provoked a certain type of response. and i've been thinking about this analogy all week as i've been working on my own book. it had me wondering how far can we take this analogy. for example, the colonial war with indians lasted for decades. now, general officers will tell you re

with each challenge we have as william faulkner said not only endured that prevailed. our endurance and perseverance has been at its best when the water has risen around us. mississippi has become accustomed to rising water. over the last decade alone hurricane katrina and the mississippi river have given us historic and painful examples of the water step. but there is something we have learned from it. they rising water has forced us to higher ground. it has forced us to build stronger and better. it has made us climb to new heights. my fellow mississipians it is true that in the years past our troubles have risen around us like that rising water. but we have persevered and each time we have climbed to the new perspective of that higher ground. and as we make our way deeper into this new century, let us rise together. let us ascend to a place where the troubled waters can no longer touch us, a place where the view of the water is big and wide and beautiful. let us rise together, mississippi, with the guiding hand of god almighty. let us take that first step up togethe
