A Moment Silence for Sarah, Shane and Josh

Today is the one year anniversary of their capture and imprisonment. Desmond Tutu a second time called for their release. And yesterday President Obama spoke spoke out for their release. It would seem at this point there must be consideration being given to the situation.

In another positive note, the hikers have been charged only with "improperly crossing the border" and not with espionage.

Yesterday's protest in New York City accomplished at least one of its purposes. It let the world know that the families and friends of these children will not forget them and will do all they can to remind us that all is not well until they return safely home.

Let's remember them today.
