radicalization and then a discussion on "counterterrorism through
building strong,
resilient communities."

arguments from both sides of the terrorist threat issue. And former
radicals
discussed lessons learned in their pathway out of extremist ideology.
START is a university-based research center headed by the University of
Maryland They recently published a report in which they examined how
to stop the
radicalization that can lead to terrorism. The group looked at
prisoners in 15
countries to learn what works and what elements could be applied
elsewhere.

September 11th

Dunham, for whom a letter in Jakarta from her son in the United States
could raise
her spirits for a full day, surely wondered about her place in his
life. On rare
occasions, she indicated as much — painfully, wistfully — to close
friends. But she
would not have been inclined to overstate her case. As she told him,
with a dry
humor that seems downright Kansan, “If nothing else, I gave you an
interesting
life.”
