On September 10, 1998, at 23:07 local time, a MD-11, operated as China Eastern Airlines flight MU 586, made an emergency landing at Shanghai, China. The airplane was a regularly scheduled passenger flight from Shanghai to Beijing. Shortly after takeoff the flightcrew reported that the nose landing gear did not retract properly. They tried to cycle the gear but could not get a safe indication in either the extended or retracted position. After flying around for about 3 1/2 hours, they returned to the Shanghai airport where they made several “firm landings” on the main landing gear to try to free the nose landing gear. After this proved to be unsuccessful, they landed the airplane with the nose gear retracted. The airplane was significantly damaged and 6 passengers and 3 flight attendants out of the 120 passengers and 18 crewmembers suffered minor injuries during the emergency evacuation after the aircraft came to rest.
The investigation is being conducted by the Safety Office of the East China Administration of the CAAC of the government of People’s Republic of China. Read the rest of this entry »

Gen 49:1 And Jacob sent for his sons, and said, Come together, all of you, so that I may give you news of your fate in future times.
Gen 49:2 Come near, O sons of Jacob, and give ear to the words of Israel your father.
Gen 49:3 Reuben, you are my oldest son, the first-fruit of my strength, first in pride and first in power:
Gen 49:4 But because you were uncontrolled, the first place will not be yours; for you went up to your father’s bed, even his bride-bed, and made it unclean.
Gen 49:5 Simeon and Levi are brothers; deceit and force are their secret designs.
Gen 49:6 Take no part in their secrets, O my soul; keep far away, O my heart, from their meetings; for in their wrath they put men to death, and for their pleasure even oxen were wounded.
Gen 49:7 A curse on their passion for it was bitter; and on their wrath for it was cruel. I will let their heritage in Jacob be broken up, driving them from their places in Israel.
Gen 49:8 To you, Judah, will your brothers give praise: your hand will be on the neck of your haters; your father’s sons will go down to the earth before you.
Gen 49:9 Judah is a young lion; like a lion full of meat you have become great, my son; now he takes his rest like a lion stretched out and like an old lion; by whom will his sleep be broken?
Gen 49:10 The rod of authority will not be taken from Judah, and he will not be without a law-giver, till he comes who has the right to it, and the peoples will put themselves under his rule.
Gen 49:11 Knotting his ass’s cord to the vine, and his young ass to the best vine; washing his robe in wine, and his clothing in the blood of grapes:
Gen 49:12 His eyes will be dark with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
Gen 49:13 The resting-place of Zebulun will be by the sea, and he will be a harbour for ships; the edge of his land will be by Zidon.
Gen 49:14 Issachar is a strong ass stretched out among the flocks:
Gen 49:15 And he saw that rest was good and the land was pleasing; so he let them put weights on his back and became a servant.
Gen 49:16 Dan will be the judge of his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
Gen 49:17 May Dan be a snake in the way, a horned snake by the road, biting the horse’s foot so that the horseman has a fall.
Gen 49:18 I have been waiting for your salvation, O Lord.
Gen 49:19 Gad, an army will come against him, but he will come down on them in their flight.
Gen 49:20 Asher’s bread is fat; he gives delicate food for kings.
Gen 49:21 Naphtali is a roe let loose, giving fair young ones.
Gen 49:22 Joseph is a young ox, whose steps are turned to the fountain;
Gen 49:23 He was troubled by the archers; they sent out their arrows against him, cruelly wounding him:
Gen 49:24 But their bows were broken by a strong one, and the cords of their arms were cut by the Strength of Jacob, by the name of the Stone of Israel: Read the rest of this entry »

BEIJING, March 10 (UPI) –Chinese officials’ thin account of foiling a terrorist hijacking plot this month has some China-watchers expressing skepticism about what actually happened.
Nur Bekri, chairman of the Xinjiang regional government, has said only that the intent of the two to four suspects, who may have been possessed gasoline, was to “create an air disaster,” Time magazine reported Monday. The alleged highjacking, which surely would have affected the upcoming 2008 Summer Olympic Games, was planned by separatists from the Muslim-majority province of Xinjiang, according to the official.
Time said initial reports stated that China Southern flight CZ6901 had made an emergency landing in Lanzhou after an apparent attempt to blow up the aircraft. The plane was en route from the Xinjiang capital of Urumqi to Beijing. Read the rest of this entry »
