Gwen Kyles, Wife of Rev. Billy Kyles, 1968
This is an interview with Gwen Kyles, wife of Rev. Samuel Billy Kyles at the time of the Sanitation Strike. She talks about the events leading up to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr's assassination
Rev. Billy Kyles, 2006
Rev. Kyles was and continues to be one of society's most active members in the push for Civil Rights. Reverend Kyles is the last living individual to have shared Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s last living hour with him. He was also an eyewitness of Dr. King's assassination. Reverend Kyles has traveled the country sharing his story of activism and giving a witness to the legacy of Dr. King.In addition to his participation during the Civil Rights Movement, characterized by his participation in marches, integration of segregated businesses and schools, and much more, he has served as the pastor of Monumental Baptist Church for over four decades. Among his many accolades, Reverend Kyles has also served as a panelist at the White House Conference on Hate Crimes
Rev. Samuel "Billy" Kyles, Eye Witness to MLK Assassination, 1968
This is an interview with Samuel Billy Kyles. Kyles was the pastor of Monumental Baptist Church and active in C.O.M.E. and an eye-witness to the death of Martin Luther King, Jr
Rev. Samuel Billy Kyles, People United to Save Humanity (PUSH), 1982
Here, interviewee Reverend Samuel Kyles recounts his work with People United to Save Humanity (PUSH) during the 1960s. He also talks about the effectiveness of boycotts and strikes both in the past and present for creating change
Lattice calculations in the B and K systems
Accurate measurements of the CKM matrix elements can be used to probe the consistency of the Standard Model. The main uncertainties in these measurements are involved in the theoretical calculation of the strong interaction effects on weak decays. Lattice QCD offers the only non-perturbative method to calculate these effects in a model independent way.Neutral kaon mixing is driven in the low energy effective theory by the ΔS = 2 four fermion operator. We study the weak matrix element of this operator in terms of the kaon B-parameter using Lattice QCD with an improved fermion action. The chiral behaviour of the matrix elements compared with the Wilson results show no significant improvement.Extraction of CKM matrix elements from B-meson mixing is restricted by the uncertainty in the B-meson decay constant. We calculate this matrix element using b quarks simulated in the static limit of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory. Smeared interpolating operators are used to extract the ground state and the effectiveness of several smearing functions is studied.We calculate the Bs - Bd and Λb - B mass differences from the lowest order contribution to the static theory. The spin dependent first order corrections are studied in a calculation of the vector-pseudoscalar mass splitting, B* - B. Comparison is made to calculations with Wilson fermions and experimentally measured values. (DX184,249)</p
