A murder conviction was overturned and it was in large part because of the work by a University of Kansas law student and Shawnee native.
Kimberly Sharp
LAWRENCE, Kan. - A murder conviction was overturned and it was in large part because of the work by a University of Kansas law student and Shawnee native.
Abby West spent more than 100 hours on Kimberly Sharp's case with the Project for Innocence.
On July 2, 2006 authorities found the body of David Owen near the Kansas River in Topeka.
Owen called himself an advocate for the homeless and often tried to convince them to reunite with their families.
Four homeless people were charged in the crime including Sharp. She was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison.
Jean Phillips is the Director for Project For Innocence at KU, which works on cases where people may have been wrongly convicted.
Because of the project's work, a federal appeals court threw out Sharp's conviction last week.
Phillips explained, "It was a long, hard-fought battle. Those cases are not won very often. They are rarely granted, as a matter of fact."
The judge said detectives falsely led Sharp to believe she would not go to jail if she cooperated with the investigation.
The case's lead researcher was Blue Valley North grad and then-KU law student West.
"To be able to help someone out like this is a really unique experience that not a lot of people get to have while in law school," remarked West.
It was an accomplishment, but also an important learning experience, she said.
Phillips explained, "I suppose we try to achieve justice on a broader scale. We train people to do it correctly because the system works when it's done correctly."
Sharp isn't out of prison.
The Shawnee County District Attorney and Kansas Attorney General's Office will decide whether to retry her case.
Shannon Halligan can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

With more than two dozen dead in less than a week in Rio de Janeiro as drug traffickers allegedly fight back against a police crackdown, some wonder how the city can cope with the magnitude of its violence problem.
With the cholera death toll climbing to more than 1,100 and 1.3 million people still living in displacement camps, presidential candidate Michel 'Sweet Micky' Martelly is calling for a change in leadership.
With more than 1,000 deaths from cholera, Haitians are directing anger at UN peacekeeping forces whom many suspect of having introduced the disease. The protests are undermining treatment efforts.
Entering the ranks of global leadership, Brazil's President-elect Dilma Rousseff becomes the 18th woman head of state currently in power when she takes office in January.
Brazil voters elected Dilma Rousseff in hopes of extending the policies of popular outgoing President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. After handing over the sash of office Jan. 1, what will Lula do next?
The Haitian government announced Tuesday that a 3-year-old in Port-au-Prince tested positive for cholera. Officials suspect dozens of other cases across the earthquake-ravaged city.
US woman Lori Berenson was paroled Monday night after serving nearly 15 years in Peru for aiding leftist rebels. Her case could have an impact on other inmates serving terrorism sentences.
Antonio Ezequiel Cardenas Guillen, also known as 'Tony Tormenta,' the highest-profile leader of the powerful Gulf Cartel, was gunned down by Mexican government forces this weekend.
For residents of Haiti, still struggling to recover from last January's destructive earthquake and more recently trying to cope with an outbreak of cholera, the country dodged a bullet.
With Haiti recovering from an earthquake and cholera outbreak as hurricane Tomas hit, Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive told the Monitor, 'It's just piling on us, just making bigger and bigger problems.'
Mexican police uncovered a mass grave this week with aid of a YouTube video posted online by a drug gang. Rival gangs have turned to social media before to publicize the crimes of their enemies.
As authorities in Mexico and Columbia crack down on the drug trades in their countries and the US-Mexico border becomes harder to sneak across, drug rings are moving their operations into the Caribbean.
The Mexican government and police efforts in the Mexican drug war are often undermined by the control that organized crime has on the political system.
Hundreds of thousands of Haitians lack access to clean water in Port-au-Prince, a situation expected to worsen after tropical storm Tomas makes landfall on Friday.
Some 1.3 million Haitians in the capital's tent cities have nowhere to go as potential hurricane Tomas approaches, even as 120,000 homes sit vacant and easily repairable.
Storm Tomas was downgraded today to a tropical depression, but forecasters expect the storm to pick up speed before it touches down on Haiti on Friday.
Current leaders of Mexico and Colombia were relieved that Prop 19 failed, but former leaders feel more free to express their support of relaxing drug laws.
Dilma Rousseff won 56 percent of the vote in a Brazil election runoff after running on a campaign promising continuity with incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's policies.
Dilma Rousseff, the handpicked successor of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, headed into today's Brazil election poised to beat centrist challenger, Jose Serra, according to polls.
Three brutal killings in Mexico in the past few days, including today's car wash massacre, killed at least 41 people. Most of the victims were formerly involved with drugs.

(Haven City)
Torn, Sig, and Daxter had barely passed the City gates when they received a transmission from the Palace. "Commander Torn Rafael and Sig are to report to Her Majesty, Queen Keira Mar, immediately."
Torn, Sig, and Daxter didn't need the summons; they were headed for the Palace anyway. They got to the Palace and went straight to the Throne Room, where Keira was waiting for them. Keira stood up from her husband's, Jak's, Throne.
"Where's Saphira?" Keira demanded.
"How's Jak?" The trio asked at the same time as Keira. There was a pause.
"Sorry," Torn said. "You first."
"Where's Saphira?" Keira repeated.
"Well, we got to Spargus and received a kind enough welcome once they found out who Saphira was. We met their King a man named Falkor. He told us of a group of traders that seem to come from Precursa. We waited a day there. Saphira made contact with the traders, but they apparently refused to give her a ride. That night, the traders left and your daughter left. She left this behind…" Torn handed the note that Saphira had written to Keira and she glanced over it.
"What does she mean, 'I'll succeed where our ancestor failed'?" Keira asked, looking up from the note.
"I don't know." Torn said. "She must be talking about Mar, though. He's her most famous ancestor."
"I'll try to relay her message to her father." Keira said, her green eyes filling with sadness.
"What do you mean, 'I'll try'?" Daxter asked. "What's wrong with Jak?"
"He's not doing very good." Keira said. "He's in pain most of the time, and the other times… I don't know…"
"He's fluxuating." Everyone turned around, Samos was walking in. "His body is rejecting the Dark Eco in his system, so his body is trying to… relieve itself."
"What do you mean by 'relieve itself'?" Torn asked.
"I mean his body is trying to get rid of the Dark Eco the normal way… by transforming into his Darker Self every few hours… if only for a few seconds. But, he can't seem to get rid of the Dark Eco. The manifestations are doing more harm then good. It's the second stage of Eco Poisoning. He'll be fine one moment, and slashing the next. We've had to restrain him forcefully… several times…"
"He's broken out of several sets of chains…" Keira had a single tear running down her cheek. "No one can approach him without the fear of getting torn apart."
"However, this stage will end soon and he'll be safe for human contact… sort of…" Samos said, but before people could inquire are the 'sort of,' Sig spoke.
"What about Gol and Maia?"
"They've organized a Metal-Head army. Ten thousand strong." Keira said. Sig, Torn, and Daxter all gasped at the same time. "And Jak's been unable to organize our defenses… considering the state he's in. I've tried, but I don't understand war. Torn, Sig… Daxter, you are the only ones left with an understanding of war and Metal-Heads, will you lead us?"
"What about Ashelin?" Torn asked.
"She's busy with other stuff." Keira said shortly.
Torn, Sig, and Daxter looked at each other. "We'd be proud to defend this City." They said as one.
"Then, on behalf of my husband, I put this City's defenses in our hands." Keira said. "Protect us well."
"May we see Jak?" Daxter asked.
"Yes… as long as you don't get within arms reach." Keira said as she turned and began to lead the way down the hall. She stopped before Jak's door and placed her long ear against the door, listening for the violent howls that signaled that it was unsafe, there wasn't a sound. She slowly opened the door. "Stay close to the walls, just in case." She advised Torn, Sig, and Daxter as they walked in.
The trio gasped. The once noble man was now reduced to a pale, sweating, trembling figure that was chained to his bed. Jak was in a pained sleep, his body convulsed as yet another wave of pain assaulted his weak and tired body. His breath came in short, ragged gasps.
"Who'd a thunk it?" Sig asked sadly. "That Cherry would ever be reduced to this?"
"I can't believe I'm saying this, but I hope that Jak pulls though. Things would be a lot less complicated without him." Torn laughed, an once-in-a-lifetime event. "Life would be… less fun."
"Jak is going to pull though!" Daxter said stubbornly, though he wasn't so sure. "He is!"
"We should start organizing Haven's defenses." Sig paused, thinking. "How are we going to repel an army ten thousand strong?"
"I don't know, but we'd better come up with a plan… fast." Torn said. He, Sig, and Daxter left the room and left the sleeping, very sick man.
(Metal-Head Nest)
Gol and Maia stood around a large Eco ball floating in mid-air. The surface of the ball could show the viewer anything they wanted, sort of like a crystal ball.
"Jak's sick?" Gol snorted in annoyance. "Eco Poisoning? What a pity… I wanted to be the one to kill him."
"They are afraid of the Metal-Head army we've raised." Maia pointed out, and then she spat. "Dumb brutes! Once they've served their purpose, can I dispose of them?"
"Of coarse." Gol said, smiling with pointed fangs at his sister. "You can have that blasted mechanic, Keira, and their daughter too."
Maia laughed. "I can almost see the look on Jak's face when I snap their necks before his eyes!"
Gol smiled at the image of Jak's horror at the death of everything he loves. "And, once you go that, I'll find some way to… put him out of his misery."
Maia's tail practically knotted itself in happiness. "And, once Jak is out of the way, we'll be free to continue our noble work with the Dark Eco!"
Gol nodded, "The world will be reshaped to our liking, and we will be the rulers! And then… everyone will see the beauty of Dark Eco!"
"They haven't got an organized defense yet." Maia said. "I know you gave them a week, but why not attack them now while they are weak?"
"What is the fun of fighting a weak opponent?" Gol asked. "No, we'll give them a week, as promised… the Calm Before the Storm. And then, we'll attack and get our revenge that we have waited five-hundred years for!"
"I love it when you talk that way!" Maia said with happiness.
"Might as well get our army ready." Gol said. With that, Gol and Maia turned and left the room.
(Haven City, Palace)
"Didn't the old system have wall-mounted cannons?" Torn asked, shifting though the late Baron Praxis' notes on the defense system with the help of Sig and one of the Krimzon Guard Captains.
"Yeah." Captain Gotan, for that was his name, snorted, holding up a piece of paper. "But the dear Baron had them disconnected. Used to much Eco."
"Damn you, Praxis!" Torn spat at that late Baron. "You've made my job a lot harder!"
"By the looks of this, the late Baron was depending too much on the Krimzon Guard to protect him." Sig snorted. "Like they were any help when, back in the old day, Cherry could take on dozens at one time without breaking a sweat." Sig suddenly gave Captain Gotan a look and added. "No offence."
"None taken." Captain Gotan said. "I agree with you. The late Baron shouldn't have depended on us so much. Long ago, when I was still a recruit, the Baron was still in power. He made it sound like he had back-up plans… we all believed him…"
"He did have back-up plans." Torn said. "Only one plan." He held up some documents. "The Dark Warrior Program." Torn quickly looked though the documents, disgust etched on his face as he read what the late Baron and Erol did to all those poor souls, including Jak. "Simple enough, really. Find Channelers, give them the ability to channel Dark Eco, then set his Dark Army upon the Metal-Heads." Torn paused, thinking.
Sig saw the look on his face and misinterpreted it. "Jak wouldn't be very happy if we had to resort to the Dark Warrior Program."
"I know, I wasn't thinking that." Torn said. "If I suggested the we start another Dark Warrior program to Jak, he'd probably put me in it just for suggesting it." Torn sighed, looking down at the papers. "Well, it looks like the wall-mounted cannons are our best hope. Get a techie reconnecting them…"
"But, the Eco supply…" Captain Gotan said, trying to remind Torn that the City was low on Eco.
"I don't care about the Eco supply!" Torn roared. "If we don't repel this assault, there won't be a City left to use it!"

|Years of service

|Vietnam War
|See below
Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force David J. Campanale (born October 7, 1952) was the eleventh person appointed to the highest noncommissioned officer position in the United States Air Force.
Military career[edit]
Chief Campanale was born in Worcester, Massachusetts. He graduated from North High School and entered the Air Force in October 1970. He completed technical training as an aircraft maintenance specialist at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas. In February 1971, he was assigned as a B-52 Stratofortress crew chief in the 2nd Organization Maintenance Squadron, Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. While there, he completed three successive tours at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, in support of B-52 Operation Arc Light missions in Southeast Asia. His career includes tours at bases in Indiana, Hawaii, New Hampshire, and Nebraska. He served as Senior Enlisted Advisor to the 93rd Bomb Wing, Castle Air Force Base, California; and Air Mobility Command, Scott Air Force Base, Illinois.
CMSAF Campanale served as the Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force from October 1994 to November 1996. He retired from active duty effective January 1, 1997. He now resides in southern Arizona and frequently speaks at Air Force gatherings.
His most notable contributions during his time as CMSAF include a push for single dorm occupancy, which led to the current dorm single occupancy policy, and a reduction of DUI incidents at Castle Air Force Base in 1 year from over 190, to less than 5.
Chief Campanale also fought a uniform change which removed name tapes and rank insignia from the battle dress uniform. The Air Force swapped for a short time to a single black label worn over the left breast pocket which contained text including the rank, name, and position of the individual. Disagreeing with this change, Chief Campanale said, "To prove my point, I had the secretary of a 3-star General remove the stars [rank insignia] from the Generals' BDU collar, then affixed the black label over his nametape as would be worn by everyone else. I then challenged that if he were to walk with me around the base, nobody would salute or render courtesies, since they couldn't read it. He accepted my challenge, and after about an hour of walking, someone finally recognized the General and said, "Hey.. aren't you General so and so?"" Within a few weeks, the black patch was being phased out, and the rank insignia/name tapes were on the way back in.[1]
Chief Campanale was accused of being a personal friend of a Bataan POW impostor, whom he was promoting for an NCO of the year type award. Despite being advised of serious discrepancies in the impostor's story and credentials, Chief Campanale dismissed all allegations. After Chief Campanale was replaced by Chief Benken the matter was re‑assessed.[2] Since then the US government has introduced the Stolen Valor Act.

|Litre Meter Press Release
Litre Meter has appointed two new distributors in South East Asia to deliver its flow measurement solutions and chemical injection packages for the offshore oil and gas industry in Asia and Australasia.
The new distributors are Wehaya in Selangor, Malaysia and Lasindo based in Jakarta, Indonesia. Litre Meter has appointed the two new distributors following the creation of an office in Singapore earlier in 2015.
Litre Meter has seen increasing business in the region over recent months with significant orders for its VFF positive displacement flowmeters for oil and gas production projects including the Kinabalu NAG project in Malaysia and Bien Dong 1 in the Nam Con Son basin off Vietnam.
The company felt the time is now right to increase its capabilities in the region to meet demand and demonstrate that it can deliver products, commissioning and engineering solutions on a regional level directly to the market.
Wehaya distributes flowmeters, sensors and other instrumentation for a number of industry sectors including oil and gas, petrochemicals and processing industries in SE Asia and China. Lasindo is a supplier specifically to the oil and gas industry in the region, providing product solutions and engineering services.
Commenting on the new distributor agreements Litre Meter CEO Charles Wemyss said: Last year Claus Weihermueller was appointed as regional manager of KEM/TASI Flow Asia Pacific & Middle East Operations based in a new KEM/TASI Flow office in Singapore.
Litre Meter, along with KEM, is part of the TASI Group and our products are promoted via the Singapore office. However, we felt that it would enable us to further increase our customer support by having our own distribution network in the region.
We have now appointed two distributors, one in Malaysia, the other in Indonesia, which gives us comprehensive coverage throughout the SE region and as far afield as China. This presence in Asia means that we can respond quickly to requests for our products and swiftly deliver commissioning and engineering solutions.
Litre Meters VFF flowmeter is ideally suited for use in the oil and gas industry and in particular for low flow / high pressure applications, which is why we are securing orders in offshore oil and gas production around the world.
Years of experience in chemical injection applications onshore and offshore have confirmed our instruments capability to reliably measure fluids under extreme conditions of both temperature and pressure and we now have representation to deliver them for various projects in Asia and Australasia.

In the canon of great composer-portraits (Opmeer's Josquin, Delacroix's Chopin, Picasso's Stravinsky), there's a lesser-known but absolutely brilliant painting of György Ligeti by Aliute Meèys. In it Ligeti is falling apart, many times in many ways: there's actually about five impeccably illustrated Ligetis, all cardboard placard-peers clad in ruffled green suits, with gray hair and worried looks, each about to topple over or crack in half -- and each barely being held in place by one another amidst rocky ruins. Meèys' portrait would just be a joke -- "Ligeti split" -- if it didn't look so much like Ligeti's music sounds: both have that same polyrhythmic track of hysteria and precision, humor and disaster, webbed into a kind of recognizable, exact chaos.
Ligeti's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra from 1992 is a relatively late work, but in many ways it's the brother of Meèys' portrait: its five movements have the same quality of falling apart into fantastic ruin, and each also gleams with the immaculate shimmer of carefully crafted illusions. Like the painting, this concerto is a desperate but tragic essay in keeping it together. At the compositional stage, Ligeti eventually conceived a walloping eight-movement scheme, but half in fragments. The final solution yielded a rhetorical stroke of genius: violinist Gawriloff collaged the scraps of the unwritten movements into a wild finale-cadenza; coming after waves of seriocomic catastrophes, it suggests a tramp scrambling from the mouth of banal death -- old-style Paganinian virtuosity wearing musical hand-me-downs.
But this schizoid flavor also constitutes the sound of the concerto as well, which radiates layered skins like a sonic onion. The polymeters so characteristic of Ligeti's music from the 1980s onwards are brazenly present, especially in the concerto's first and final movements. Here the soloist is often lost in an illuminated mirrored hall, surrounded by musical doppelgangers moving at different speeds. Ligeti adds to the rhythmic and timbral layeredness an extraordinary mis-tuning of the ensemble; among other examples, a violin and viola must de-tune their strings to the natural harmonics of the double bass. The effect, amidst a harmony calculated to sound neither tonal nor atonal, manifests Ligeti's wish for a "glassy shimmering character" emanating "fragility and danger."
The second movement is another of Ligeti's mock-folk pieces, thirsting after the anonymous sincerity of Eastern European peasant song, but continually splintering into weird ironic homelessness; interspersed with botched variations of a modal melody Ligeti inserts delusional passages for ocarinas. The fourth movement's passacaglia is a terrifying tightening of the screw, its "Lento intenso" witnessing the slow rise of a chromatic scale through the entire ensemble; a procession of fearful quiet and violent outburst force a gravity on the whole work, turning surreal play into a sincere anxiety. The final movement's caustic, ruinous humor barely alleviates this new darkness, and by the time of the violinist's histrionic soliloquy, one gets the pervasive sensation that all is lost. But the effect is far more provocative than depressing, basking in paradox: how can something so radiant also be so black?

Take advantage of cool winter days to warm yourself up with a bowl of creamy mushroom soup that nourishes the soul, tastes great and is easy to make. Don't forget, mushrooms have many health benefits and are a great source of both protein and vitamin A. With a variety of mushrooms available, use your favorite; I prefer stronger mushroom flavors such as porcini or shiitake. However, for this recipe, basic button mushrooms such as cremini will do.
Ingredients (serves 6)
1 pound of mushrooms
½ cup organic, quality butter
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 small onion, sliced
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
3 ½ cups organic chicken broth (I prefer frozen or home made)
1 teaspoon salt (add more if your broth has no salt)
¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup heavy cream
Lemon zest for garnish
1. Trim tough stem end of mushrooms and discard; remove stems and save for later. Slice mushroom caps thinly.
2. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and cook sliced mushrooms and lemon juice until mushrooms are tender. Reduce heat to medium-low, and remove all the mushrooms to bowl, leaving behind the juices and butter. In the same saucepan, cook onion and mushroom stems until onion is tender. Stir in flour until well blended. Cook for one minute stirring the mixture constantly.
3. Gradually stir in chicken broth while stirring constantly until mixture is thickened. Boil soup for 15-20 minutes. Using an inverted or emulsifier blender, puree mushrooms until creamy.
4. Add salt and pepper. Check to see if more salt is needed. Stir in cooked mushroom slices and cream.
5. Serve soup in individual bowels. Garnish with lemon zest or use traditional herbs such as thyme or parsley.
