Malysian Flight MH370! Mystery Revealed

Mansoor Asghar Raja Column About Khoon se Taweez

3 pieces of evidence point to Malaysian jet´s takeover

There are three pieces of evidence that aviation safety experts say make it clear the missing Malaysia Airlines jet was taken over by someone who was knowledgeable about how the plane worked.



One clue is that the plane´s transponder — a signal system that identifies the plane to radar — was shut off about an hour into the flight. In order to do that, someone in the cockpit would have to turn a knob with multiple selections to the off position while pressing down at the same time, said John Goglia, a former member of the National Transportation Safety Board.



That´s something a pilot would know how to do, but it could also be learned by someone who researched the plane on the Internet, he said.



Another clue is that part of the Boeing 777´s Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) was shut off. The system, which has two parts, is used to send short messages via a satellite or VHF radio to the airline´s home base. The information part of the system was shut down, but not the transmission part.



In most planes, the information part of the system can be shut down by hitting cockpit switches in sequence in order to get to a computer screen where an option must be selected using a keypad, said Goglia, an expert on aircraft maintenance. That´s also something a pilot would know how to do, but that could also be discovered through research, he said.



But to turn off the other part of the ACARS, it would be necessary to go to an electronics bay beneath the cockpit. That´s something a pilot wouldn´t normally know how to do, Goglia said, and it wasn´t done in the case of the Malaysia plane. Thus, the ACARS transmitter continued to send out blips that were recorded by the Inmarsat satellite once an hour for four to five hours after the transponder was turned off.



The blips don´t contain any messages or data, but the satellite can tell in a very broad way what region the blips are coming from and adjusts the angle of its antenna to be ready to receive message in case the ACARS sends them. Investigators are now trying to use data from the satellite to identify the region where the plane was when its last blip was sent.



The third indication is that that after the transponder was turned off and civilian radar lost track of the plane, Malaysian military radar was able to continue to track the plane as it turned west. The plane was then tracked along a known flight route across the peninsula until it was several hundred miles (kilometers) offshore and beyond the range of military radar.



KUALA LUMPUR: Airliners normally fly from waypoint to waypoint where they can be seen by air traffic controllers who space them out so they don´t collide. These lanes in the sky aren´t straight lines. In order to follow that course, someone had to be guiding the plane, Goglia said.



Goglia said he is very skeptical of reports the plane was flying erratically while it was being tracked by military radar, including steep ascents to very high altitudes and then sudden, rapid descents. Without a transponder signal, the ability to track planes isn´t reliable at very high altitudes or with sudden shifts in altitude, he said.

Shura to change meeting site, Drone flights force TTP intermediaries

Miranshah- As US drones flew above them, the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) intermediaries and the Taliban political Shura (advisory council) changed their meeting place to a different location.

The second phase of talks between the TTP negotiators and the Taliban political shura began today.

The TTP intermediaries had left Islamabad and reached North Waziristan to meet the shura on March 14, 2014.

Coordinator of TTP committee Maulana Yousaf Shah, Jamaat-e-Islami’s Professor Ibrahim and Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) district chief Maulana Abdul Hai had traveled to North Waziristan via a special helicopter.

The purpose of the visit was to decide the timing and venue for face-to-face talks between the new government negotiators and the TTP.

Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan had said that formal talks with the TTP would begin the moment the timing and venue for the dialogue was decided.

The government had formed a new committee on March 12, 2014, to hold direct talks with the TTP as part of efforts to end years of violence that has plagued the country.

Ports and Shipping Secretary Habibullah Khattak would head the four-member committee which will include Fata Additional Secretary Arbab Arif, Additional Secretary to Prime Minister Office Fawad Hassan Fawad and Former Diplomat Rustam Shah Mohmand, who was in the previous negotiating team as well.

China's satellite finds ´floating objects´ in Malaysia jet hunt

BEIJING: China says that one of its satellites has detected three large "floating objects" in a region of the sea where it suspects the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 had an accident.



China´s state science and technology administration said Wednesday that a Chinese satellite had seen the objects in a "suspected crash sea area" on the morning of March 9, adding that the images were being analysed.



The suspected objects were found at 105.63 degrees longitude East and 6.7 degrees latitude North, the administration said on its website.



It added that the objects were spread across an area with a radius of 20 kilometres (12 miles), in sizes that appeared to be 13 x 18 metres, 14 x 19 metres and 24 x 22 metres.

Drone use down in Pakistan, up in Afghanistan: UN

GENEVA:The number of U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan plunged last year amid growing care to avoid civilian deaths, but the death toll in neighboring Afghanistan continues to rise, the United Nations´ special investigator on counterterrorism said Wednesday.



Ben Emmerson says that for the first time in nine years no civilians were reported killed in 2013 in Pakistan´s Federally Administered Tribal Regions, or FATA, a semi-autonomous area along the 2,600-kilometer (1,600-mile) Afghanistan-Pakistan border where militant groups operate.



The U.N. special rapporteur, a British lawyer who reports to the 47-nation Human Rights Council and the U.N. General Assembly, told reporters in Geneva there has been "a very significant de-escalation" of U.S. armed drone use in Pakistan´s FATA region, down to 27 strikes last year from a peak of 128 in 2010.



But he said the picture is uglier in Afghanistan, where drone strikes and civilian deaths resulting from their use are intensifying.



In Afghanistan, he said, the number of civilian casualties from drone strikes last year rose to 45 dead and 14 injured, triple the rate experienced in 2012.Emmerson said Yemen had suffered around 500 civilian casualties from drone strikes since 2009, largely because of incompetent targeting.



It doesn´t have to be that way, he said. "In principle, at least, technology which allows military commanders to observe a target 24 hours a day in almost real time is capable of reducing those risks," Emmerson said.



"But that depends on a combination of different forms of intelligence ... and on responsible operational decisions being taken.



"Before his press conference, Emmerson reported to the Geneva-based council on the civilian toll from drone attacks, chiefly carried out by U.S. forces, and called for more independent investigation.



He examined about 30 drone strikes involving civilian casualties committed by American, British and Israeli forces in Afghanistan, Gaza, Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen.



He said the U.S. military had reduced the frequency of drone attacks, and limited them to high-value targets, because of growing criticism in Pakistan and abroad.

Setting Hannah, Adam, and Jessa Up for the Home Stretch:Girls' Recap

We have 2 episodes left to travel during this season of ladies, which implies everyone's story is getting {down to} wind down to a conclusive purpose. on solidifies the immediate future for Hannah and Adam (and not in a very notably promising way), and tosses Jessa alittle bit nearer to all-time low.

The Hannah and Adam Story

Two weeks back, we tend to compared the Hannah-Adam arc of Season three to the romantic story of Spike Jonze's Her. Not a very perceptive analogy, since Her is as blanket as a moving-picture show regarding love and relationships will get, however our predictions ar valid with the last word conclusion of the most recent episode, "Role Play." Hannah goes out drinking (excessively) with work friends, returning up succeeding morning to the shock that Adam was too engulfed by his play to even worry regarding what might need happened to her. All this and a dismissive morning angle and his apparent embarrassment once she showed up to observe his rehearsal equates to Hannah deciding to do and "spice things up" between them, instituting AN elaborate role play situation within which she gets into bit with the dark patterns a Hannah and Adam of past times accustomed fancy.

But things transgress once Adam is pained and defer by the try, maybe victimization the ordeal as a vehicle to access feelings he looks to own been fun for a while: he needs out. a minimum of quickly. As such, corroboratory not simply our predictions however Hannah's worries from earlier this season, Adam says he wants time except for her to devote himself to his art, opting to remain with Ray (Ray! which means he'll be back!) for a short while.

We don't expect Hannah and Adam to create it to the tip of the season, part as a result of this new flip and part as a result of each season premiere sees her waking in bed with a distinct partner (first Marnie, then prophet, then Adam... who's next?).

The Jessa scenario (with a little of Shoshanna wet in)

Jessa has not return terribly off from wherever we tend to found her at the start of this season — though she cleansed up for a short while, she ne'er absolutely embraced the problematic nature of her addiction and her approach to life generally. This week, the unlikely voice of reason that Shoshanna has become confronts Jessa and opaque gem (Richard E. Grant) by shocking the 2 with a visit from the latter's female offspring Dot (an substance Felicity Jones).

Jasper virtually breaks down, initially resisting his daughter's pleas for affectionateness however step by step returning to her (and his own) defense once Jessa accosts the each of them. The conclusion of the union sees Jessa while not even the person WHO fostered her voyage into medication, together with her habit presenting itself as less of a drag than her addiction to pushing folks away.

And whereas we tend to leave Jessa in a very dark place at the tip of the episode, it's maybe the depths to that she required to fall so as to climb copy. She finally accepts her temperament — she has got to — currently that even her cousin-german, WHO once adored her particularly else, has seen her for her appearance.

The region of Marnie

I'm a member of the terribly distributed Marnie camp, however her flip on looks notably barren of interest. She would possibly become Soojin's (Greta Lee) assistant at AN picture gallery, despite her feelings that such work is demeaning? a lot of significantly, Marnie is clearly harboring feelings for Adam's pal and fellow actor, the spirit walker Desi (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), however solely per se that she very needs him to be interested in her, as Marnie has known herself as valuable only if she is attracting men. Desi clearly cares for Marnie in his encouragement of her song-writing and creative thinking, however he's dedicated to his girlfriend. Sadly, she takes this as a rejection and spirals deeper into her pit of despair.

So there we tend to ar. everybody feeling happy?

Chelsea Handler and Ronan Farrow at the 92nd Street Y

Chelsea Handler, best-selling author and highly successful comedian and television personality, took to the stage of the 92nd Street Y to discuss her new book, Uganda Be Kidding Me, with journalist and humanitarian Ronan Farrow. The release of her fifth book has been highly anticipated, since four years have passes since Handler published her last title, Lies That Chelsea Handler Told Me. As the proud owner of her four books, you could imagine my excitement when it was announced there would be a signing after the discussion at the Y for anyone in attendance. To no one's surprise, the theater sold out of every copy of Uganda Be Kidding Me.

Chelsea Handler, Ronan Farrow, Sarah Kuszelewicz

Handler talked about everything from her brother's passing when she was 10 (and how she tried to get attention in all the wrong ways thereafter) to the current events in pop culture. “There’s only so many years you can talk about Justin Bieber,” she said. “I mean, I don’t care about him.” Believe it or not, this funny lady has quite the serious side. In fact, she admitted that she actually prefers to play it grounded. She went on to talk to the audience about the fine line between light-hearted comedy and just being plain old mean. “If you care too much about what people think, you won’t succeed in what you want,” she said while confessing how she never reads what people post about her online.

Chelsea Handler, Ronan Farrow, Sarah Kuszelewicz

For anyone who has read one of Handler's books before, you would be lying through your teeth if you say you didn’t burst out laughing frequently throughout. “I just love that feeling,” she said of the joys of writing. "It’s like being a little kid again, I’m having fun alone.” When asked how she accomplished being such a successful author, “I just did it, it’s complete luck. It’s not like I’m a literary genius.” Handler did credit author Dave Sedaris with begin her inspiration to begin writing books.

Chelsea Handler, Cyndi Cappello

Uganda Be Kidding Me is a collection of stories from various trips that Handler, along with some friends and family, has gone on. She admits to giving her traveling companions no other option but to go on these all expense paid vacations with her. “It’s a free for all,” she said to Farrow, “but you have to know you’ll probably be in my book.” Along with all her other publications, it’s almost impossible to put it down once you start. In fact, I had to force myself to stop reading so I could enjoy it in more than one sitting. If you love hilariously uncensored stories (and lets be honest, who doesn’t?), I highly recommend you go out and pick up a copy of Uganda Be Kidding Me, in stores today.
