( cnn ) the united states is urging china to release five young feminists who face years in prison over their campaign for gender equality . authorities detained the women in three cities -- beijing , guangzhou and hangzhou -- a few days ahead of events planned for international women 's day on march 8 . `` each and every one of us has the right to speak out against sexual harassment and the many other injustices that millions of women and girls suffer around the world , '' u.s. secretary of state john kerry said in a statement friday . `` we strongly support the efforts of these activists to make progress on these challenging issues , and we believe that chinese authorities should also support them , not silence them . '' the detention of wei tingting , along with wu rongrong , li tingting , wang man and zheng churan has drawn harsh criticism from the international community . protesters in several cities have called for their release and taken to social media with the phrase `` free the five '' as a hashtag . wang qiushi , the lawyer for wei , said police recommended monday that prosecutors press charges of `` assembling a crowd to disturb public order .

'' wang said he did n't know why the charge against the women changed . `` neither should constitute a crime , '' he said . campaign group amnesty international said the new charge was less serious but still carried a maximum prison term of five years . `` the women were doing nothing wrong , nothing illegal . they were simply calling for an end to sexual harassment , '' said william nee , china researcher at amnesty international . wang said that wei was subjected to lengthy cross examinations during her detention . two of the women are said to be in poor health . he added that the charges relate both to the activities the women planned for international women 's day and earlier campaigns against domestic violence . the five are members of china 's women 's rights action group . they had planned to hand out stickers with slogans saying `` stop sexual harassment , let us stay safe '' and `` go police , go arrest those who committed sexual harassment !

( cnn ) five years after the deepwater horizon rig exploded and unleashed the largest marine oil spill in the nation 's history , we are still experiencing -- yet only beginning to truly understand -- its profound environmental and economic repercussions . the immediate aftermath of the oil spill has been well documented , with declines in tourism and the seafood industry , as well as the significant destruction of wildlife in the region . since then , the amount of oil in the area has dissipated and communities have started to show signs of recovery . in fact , reports indicate that the gulf of mexico 's seafood industry , which supplies the united states with roughly 40 % of its seafood , is finally starting to rebound . however , profound challenges remain , in part because so many questions about the long-term consequences remain unanswered . to this day , it 's still unclear where all of the oil went , exactly how much remains or whether the reappearance of wildlife is a result of adaptation or a signal that the crisis is truly abating . one of the populations that can provide insight into these questions is the gulf crab . crabs play an important role in the region : roughly 60 million pounds were fished in the gulf in 2012 , earning tens of millions in revenue . yet in the aftermath of the spill , changes to crustacean communities in the area were quite apparent to the naked eye . researchers documented substantial differences in appearance , and deformities in crabs that were affected by the spill including lesions so numerous they ate through the joints , forcing limbs to fall off . these traits have affected not only the crabs ' market value but also likely their ability to survive . while these changes in outward appearance have dissipated in the short-term , the health of these crabs could still be precarious . i have been working with colleagues at florida international university and university of louisiana at lafayette to better understand what might be happening biologically inside the crab when it is exposed to oil and the dispersant used to respond to the spill . using the power of genomics and computational biology , we analyzed the genes of flat back mud crabs that were exposed to oil from the macondo prospect where the deepwater horizon rig was drilling when it exploded or to a combination of oil and dispersant in the lab . by studying gene expression , the process that turns information from a gene into a product that functions within a cell , we searched for indicators that might signal exposure to oil and , based on the types of changes we might see , clues as to how the crabs respond . although we are still in the early stages of our research , we are seeing significant differences in gene expression connected to exposure -- meaning the crabs are turning some genes on or off in response to oil and dispersant . we are still working to determine whether these changes impact their ability to survive and reproduce . it 's not just gulf crabs that are experiencing changes . research on different species and other aspects of the regional environment is starting to show that there could be long-term effects resulting from the oil spill and the response to the spill . this not only has consequences for the gulf area , where oil drilling continues , but also for communities along the atlantic coast , where the obama administration has recently announced a plan to open unprecedented oil and natural gas exploration . ( bp 's vice president of communications , geoff morrell , told cnn that wildlife species in the gulf have `` bounced back and `` there is no data that suggests there are any long-term population-level impacts to any species . '' ) with the virtual certainty of more spills , we need a lot more information on the consequences of these disasters and how we can combat them effectively and efficiently . the u.s. department of the interior and the environmental protection agency are making some progress . in coming months , they are releasing changes to regulations and response plans based on the early lessons learned from the deepwater horizon spill . but government agencies can not just rely on the short-term data to determine the best response for the next oil spill crisis . instead , the government and oil companies should work together to support ongoing , long-term ecological research so that we have a better grasp of what `` normal '' looks like and what factors are important in maintaining those conditions even after a disastrous oil spill . only then will we truly understand the impact of offshore drilling and the best ways to respond to crises to protect our most important natural resources .

( cnn ) if you 're famous and performing the american national anthem , be prepared to become a national hero or a national disgrace . facts are facts . just ask vince , whitney , roseanne , jimi and michael . mötley crüe 's vince neil reminded us again this week of the dangers of tackling `` the star-spangled banner . '' sure , he can shred it on `` girls , girls , girls '' and `` dr. feelgood , '' but this is a different story -- a completely different story . to say neil butchered the song before the las vegas outlaws arena football league game would be unkind to those in the profession . there 's less carnage when butchers are done with their work . the late whitney houston set the modern standard for the national anthem at super bowl xxv . in the early stages of the gulf war in 1991 , a patriotic america saluted her performance . just six months earlier , comedian roseanne barr may have established the low-water mark . the crowd at the san diego padres game booed her rendition and president george h. w. bush called it `` disgraceful . '' there 's nothing quite like getting the presidential thumbs down . one of the most controversial and beloved versions of `` the star-spangled banner '' comes from 1969 . guitar slinger jimi hendrix inflamed mainstream america with his psychedelic take on the national anthem to the delight of the woodstock generation . and then there 's michael bolton 's version . overly wrought songs are his specialty and he does n't disappoint in that department when he sings at the american league championship series in 2003 . bolton belts it out , but there 's one little problem -- the words . can anyone say crib notes ?

( cnn ) it did n't seem like a fair fight . on one side were hulking football players and pro wrestlers , competing as teams of two to eat as many pounds of steak as they could , combined , in one hour . on another was a lone 124-pound mother of four . and sure enough , in the end , sunday 's contest at big texan steak ranch in amarillo , texas , was n't even close . molly schuyler scarfed down three 72-ounce steaks , three baked potatoes , three side salads , three rolls and three shrimp cocktails -- far outpacing her heftier rivals . that 's more than 13 pounds of steak , not counting the sides . and she did it all in 20 minutes , setting a record in the process . `` we 've been doing this contest since 1960 , and in all that time we 've never had anybody come in to actually eat that many steaks at one time , '' bobby lee , who co-owns the big texan , told cnn affiliate kvii . `` so this is a first for us , and after 55 years of it , it 's a big deal . '' in fairness , schuyler is n't your typical 124-pound person . the nebraska native , 35 , is a professional on the competitive-eating circuit and once gobbled 363 chicken wings in 30 minutes . wearing shades and a black hoodie , schuyler beat four other teams on sunday , including pairs of football players and pro wrestlers and two married competitive eaters . she also broke her own big texan record of two 72-ounce steaks and sides , set last year , when she bested previous record-holder joey `` jaws '' chestnut . the landmark big texan restaurant offers its `` 72-ounce challenge '' daily to anyone who can eat the massive steak , plus fixings , in under an hour . those who ca n't do so must pay $ 72 for the meal . schuyler , who now lives in sacramento , california , won $ 5,000 for her efforts . her feat will be submitted to guinness world records . but mostly , she just seemed pleased to enjoy a hearty meal on the house . `` it 's free , so i 'm pretty happy about that , '' she told kvii . `` otherwise it would have cost me about 300 bucks . ''

des moines , iowa ( cnn ) martin o'malley told reporters in iowa on friday that inevitability -- a term bandied about regarding democratic presidential frontrunner hillary clinton -- is not unbreakable . `` i 've seen it before , '' the former governor of maryland and possible presidential contender said . `` history is full of examples where the inevitable frontrunner was inevitable right up until she was no longer or he was no longer inevitable . '' clinton was considered inevitable to win the nomination in 2008 but ended up losing to barack obama . o'malley had previously dropped the inevitability comment in a television interview last month . the former governor , who capped off his two-day trip to the first-in-the-nation caucus state with a speech to the polk county democrats in des moines , said that although clinton is an `` eminently qualified candidate , '' the democratic party is full of `` good leaders . '' `` history is full of examples where people who are not very well known nationally can be very well known once they are willing to make their case to the people of iowa , '' o'malley said . in some polls , he has scored in the low single digits in the state . in a march cnn/orc poll of national democrats , only 1 % picked o'malley . in a january poll by bloomberg politics and the des moines register , o'malley was also at 1 % among iowa democrats . clinton , who leads most polls by upwards of 40 points , is planning to launch her presidential candidacy on sunday through a video message on social media , a person close to her campaign-in-waiting told cnn on friday . while he would n't say much about clinton , when asked about her candidacy , o'malley said , `` if leaders believe that they have the experience and the framework to move our country forward , they should run . and they should engage with voters and our country would be the better for it . '' o'malley , like other democrats , appears to refrain from directly attacking clinton . although last month on abc , he said that the presidency is `` not some crown to be passed between two families , '' he has not focused on her . he has , however , openly teased a presidential run . `` i know that , as democrats , we expect -- and i have heard this all over the country -- the democrats expect a robust conversation about the issues we face as a nation and the challenges we face , '' he said . `` they believe that that conversation needs to take place in something as important as a presidential primary . '' he concluded : `` it would be an extreme poverty indeed if there was only one person willing to compete for our party 's nomination for president . ''

( cnn ) the american pharmacists association is discouraging its members from participating in executions . on monday , the group voted at its annual meeting to adopt a ban as an official policy , stating that `` such activities are fundamentally contrary to the role of pharmacists as healthcare providers . '' this bolsters the association 's previous positions to oppose the use of the term `` drug '' for chemicals used in lethal injection and to oppose laws that require or prohibit pharmacists from participation in lethal injection cases . the group acted this week because of increased public attention on lethal injection , said michelle spinnler , spokeswoman for the american pharmacists association . that spotlight includes a january supreme court decision to stay the execution for three death row inmates in oklahoma . this was prompted by clayton lockett 's execution by lethal injection nearly one year ago in which he writhed on a gurney for 43 minutes before he died from a heart attack . in georgia last month , the execution of female death row inmate kelly renee gissendaner was postponed as a precaution when the execution team checked the medications and discovered they looked cloudy . thirty-two sates allow capital punishment , and lethal injection is still the most common method . last month , utah gov . gary r. herbert signed a law reinstating firing squads as a method of execution in cases in which lethal injection medications are not available . of the eight inmates currently on death row in utah , three opted for the new choice of death by firing squad . pentobarbital is the preferred drug used for lethal injection . in texas , the department of criminal justice told cnn in march they are running out of their supply . in july 2011 , lundbeck inc. , the manufacturer of pentobarbital , decided to no longer provide the drug to prisons for use in capital punishment . the companies that manufacture the products traditionally used in executions almost unilaterally decided to stop selling to institutions that used the products for that purpose , so states then turned to compounded preparations , spinnler said . `` pharmacists should not be involved in preparation of these products or involved in executions in any other way . '' she says . the new declaration by the american pharmacists association aligns with positions held by other professional medical organizations such as the american medical association , the american nurses association and the american board of anesthesiology .

( cnn ) the united states is urging china to release five young feminists who face years in prison over their campaign for gender equality . authorities detained the women in three cities -- beijing , guangzhou and hangzhou -- a few days ahead of events planned for international women 's day on march 8 . `` each and every one of us has the right to speak out against sexual harassment and the many other injustices that millions of women and girls suffer around the world , '' u.s. secretary of state john kerry said in a statement friday . `` we strongly support the efforts of these activists to make progress on these challenging issues , and we believe that chinese authorities should also support them , not silence them . '' the detention of wei tingting , along with wu rongrong , li tingting , wang man and zheng churan has drawn harsh criticism from the international community . protesters in several cities have called for their release and taken to social media with the phrase `` free the five '' as a hashtag . wang qiushi , the lawyer for wei , said police recommended monday that prosecutors press charges of `` assembling a crowd to disturb public order . '' prosecutors have seven days -- until monday -- to decide whether to pursue the charges , according to the lawyer . `` we can do nothing but wait , '' wang said . the five were initially held on suspicion of `` picking quarrels and provoking trouble . '' wang said he did n't know why the charge against the women changed . `` neither should constitute a crime , '' he said . campaign group amnesty international said the new charge was less serious but still carried a maximum prison term of five years . `` the women were doing nothing wrong , nothing illegal . they were simply calling for an end to sexual harassment , '' said william nee , china researcher at amnesty international . wang said that wei was subjected to lengthy cross examinations during her detention . two of the women are said to be in poor health . he added that the charges relate both to the activities the women planned for international women 's day and earlier campaigns against domestic violence . the five are members of china 's women 's rights action group . they had planned to hand out stickers with slogans saying `` stop sexual harassment , let us stay safe '' and `` go police , go arrest those who committed sexual harassment ! '' on international women 's day . this week , kerry 's predecessor , hillary clinton , tweeted that the activists ' detention was `` inexcusable . '' chinese authorities rebuked her comment , saying public figures should respect the nation 's sovereignty and independence . cnn 's katie hunt and shen lu contributed to this report .
