SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — A magnitude-7.1 earthquake struck central Chile Sunday night, the strongest and longest that many people said they had felt since a huge quake devastated the area two years ago. There were no immediate reports of deaths or major damage.
The quake struck at 7:30 p.m. about 16 miles (27 kilometers) north-northwest of Talca, a city of more than 200,000 people where residents said the shaking lasted about a minute.
Buildings swayed in Chile’s capital 136 miles (219 kilometers) to the north, and people living along a 480-mile (770-kilometer) stretch of Chile’s central coast were briefly warned to head for higher ground.
Residents were particularly alarmed in Constitucion, where much of the coastal downtown at the mouth of a river was obliterated by the tsunami caused by the 8.8-magnitude quake in 2010.
Panic also struck in Santiago and other cities, with people running out of skyscrapers, and many neighborhoods were left partly or totally without electrical power. Phone service was disrupted by heavy use.
“There are some injuries but nothing serious,” said Interior Minister Rodrigo Hinzpeter, who was serving as acting president while Sebastian Pinera is on tour in Asia.

The dedication of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial is taking place this Sunday, October 16th. That’s also the 16th anniversary of the Million Man March, which took place on the National Mall in 1995.
”Alpha Man: The Brotherhood of Martin Luther King” reveals the little-known story of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s fraternity days as a member of the country’s first black fraternity, Alpha Phi Alpha, when he was a 23-year-old divinity student in Boston. Produced by Rainforest Films for Bl ack Entertainment Television (BET), the half-hour special, to be broadcast at 7 p.m. Eastern on Sunday, Aug. 28, was supposed to coincide with the much-anticipated official dedication of the Martin Luther King Memorial statue on the National Mall. But because of Hurricane Irene the dedication ceremonies have been postponed. The statue was scheduled to be dedicated on the 48th anniversary of the March on Washington and Dr. King’s “Dream” speech.
Dr. King’s APA frat brothers were instrumental in making the $120 million, 30 feet tall King Memorial a reality. The special, co-executive produced by Rob Hardy and Will Packer, will feature never before seen footage and first-hand accounts about a part of King’s early life that few people know about. “We did a lot of research and asked a lot of questions about this period in King’s life,” said Hardy. “We got first hand accounts of what happened during those times. We included information to show people what a fraternity is and information about Alpha Phi Alpha in case they didn’t know. This special will give an account of what Dr. King did when he was in the fraternity.”
Pausing, Hardy added, “King was drawn to Alpha Phi Alpha because a lot of people who were influential in that day, including Paul Robeson, Thurgood Marshall, and Duke Ellington, were all Alphas.” Hardy said that the special will include first hand accounts from King associates who knew King during the burgeoning civil rights movement, including when King was arrested in Montgomery and how other Alpha members raised the bail money to get him released from jail. “We also have King speaking at the 50th anniversary of the fraternity, and that was the first and only time he spoke at an Alpha convention,” said Hardy. We have broadcast footage of that speech which has never been heard.” Although Hardy said that King pledged Alpha Phi Alpha in 1952 and was proud to be a member of Alpha Phi Alpha, he said that the future civil rights leader downplayed his association in the fraternity.
“There’s not a lot of detail about King’s life in the fraternity and we spoke with Ambassador (Andrew) Young who said that that was deliberate. King never publicized that he was an Alpha man because at that time he didn’t want to create any more divisions between black people. He felt we were all in the same struggle so he didn’t want to create any more divisions where people viewed him as separate because he is in a fraternity or he’s an Alpha. He just wanted everybody to view him as, ‘We’re all common people on a mission for civil rights’…he was more about solidarity.” Hardy said King’s fight for social justice greatly influenced his fraternity brothers. “The Alphas began launching student sit-ins because they saw King speak at this convention. Because King spoke to the brotherhood, he inspired other brothers to do the same thing and to take a nonviolent approach towards civil rights.” Actor and author Hill Harper serves as host and narrator of the production. “Hill traveled to Boston, Atlanta, D. C. and Dayton to meet some of the people who actually knew Dr. King,” said Hardy, who also told us that Harper and Dianne Ashford served as producers on the project.
One of Bishop Eddie Long’s accusers has been arrested. 24-year old Jamal Parris was one of the four young who accused Bishop Long of sexual misconduct. The four men got a private apology and a $25 million payout that they split. Parris was driving a brand new white BMW that had no tags. Police noticed the missing tags and stopped the car. They smelled marijuana and arrested him. Police also found $1,200 in cash and a hand gun. Parris was arrested in Florida and released.
SEATTLE — For three weeks, Timothy Dampier sang and played music at the New Hope Baptist Church.
He was known as an extremely talented musician, but that all changed when a young man stepped forward and told the pastor that Dampier molested him years ago.
“He had had some experiences that bordered on abuse,” said Rev. Robert Jeffrey. “It was enough for us to say, ‘We needed to call the police.’”
Prosecutors have now charged Dampier with multiple counts of child molestation.
Court documents say at least three victims, who are now in their 20s, accuse Dampier of fondling them on multiple occasions, and showed them pornography.
Detectives say Dampier worked in various group homes, churches and charities, including the Bellevue Boys and Girls Club, where he worked until he was recently suspended.
Seattle police say additional people have come forward since the story broke to say they, too, were molested by Dampier.
“I think people need to understand these things sometimes are (the) tip of the iceberg,” said Jeffrey.
Jeffrey says his responsibility is to the victims and the community.
“The church becomes suspect when it condones in it’s complicity,” he said.
That’s why he stepped forward and called police. He just hopes other victims will feel comfortable enough to step forward, too
“We have a responsibility. Sometimes people get forgiveness confused with justice. Forgiveness is one thing, justice is another,” said Jeffrey.
