    The star of TV's The Cosby Show and That's So Raven sat down with Oprah Winfrey and attempted to clarify the misconceptions about who she is. One of the topics the women addressed occurred in August 2013, when the Supreme Court ruled that the ban on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional. At the time, she tweeted, "I can finally get married! Yay government! So proud of you." Many people saw it as her way of publicly coming out. Asked to explain, Raven replied, "That was my way of saying I'm proud of the country. But, I will say that I'm in...

    3/26/2010 - KIRKUK REGIONAL AIR BASE, Iraq (AFNS) -- Airmen here use the RQ-11B Raven, a small unmanned aircraft equipped with cameras, sensors and communications tools, to give coalition warfighters an advantage of eyes in the sky. There are many different types of unmanned aircraft, ranging in size and capability, but Kirkuk Regional Air Base Airmen operate the Raven-B that weighs only 4.2 pounds, has a 55 inch wingspan and measures 3 feet in length.

    Strategy Page ^ | December 27, 2009
    The U.S. Army's most popular aircraft is continuing to evolve. The aircraft in question is the Raven, which weighs less than five pounds, and is a UAV used mainly by combat troops. Infantry companies and platoons regularly use them to get a look at what's over the hill, or behind surrounding buildings. Recent improvements include a "fail safe" mode, where a Raven that has lost contact with its operator, will immediately head for where it was launched from. There is now a location beacon, so that if one crashed over the hill, it can be quickly found. The latest improvements...

    Despite the evidence, the FBI won't let go of its "lone American" theory. 1) OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS, have federal authorities altered their working theory of last fall's anthrax murders? No, not much. On November 9 last year, even before the anthrax outbreak's fifth and final fatality had been recorded, the FBI called a press conference to unveil its "linguistic and behavioral assessment" of "the person" purportedly responsible. It was "highly probable, bordering on certainty," the Bureau announced, that a single "adult male" had prepared and mailed all the contaminated letters at issue. This man "probably has a scientific...

    Killer ravens attack livestock By Bonnie Malkin Last Updated: 8:34PM BST 04/05/2008 Deadly attacks by large groups of ravens on young livestock are on the increase, farmers have warned. Lambs, calves and sheep are being targeted across Britain, but especially in Scotland and Wales. The ravens flock together to attack their victims in scenes which some describe as reminiscent of Alfred Hitchcock's 1963 film The Birds. Even if the animals survive the attacks, they are left in excruciating pain. Ravens, which almost became extinct in Britain during the 19th century, are a protected species, but the rise in the number...
