"I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat"

Two Chinese diplomats, away from their Los Angeles consulate improperly, recently sped their vehicle past a Los Alamos National Laboratory guard post near classified facilities in what U.S. officials think was an intelligence mission, The Washington Times has learned.

What time over N America?
The skies here have been blood red/brown before dawn everyday for a week here!

Anyone following the Flight 200 from LA to Wash, Dulles? I think it is United?

If this terrorist season is not stopped and stopped now, we will not have a country

Granny...as I've posted before multiple times, forget the country. It is already lost. We need to concentrate on us and those we love now. It's too late for "the country."

Here is more to be concerned about:

Simulation Gives Glimpse of Nuke Terror

BRUSSELS, Belgium -- European officials conducted a simulation showing how al-Qaida could kill 40,000 people and plunge the continent into chaos if a crude nuclear device were detonated outside NATO headquarters in Brussels.

Sorry, just meant the flights that had been watched over the holidays.

Yeah, very curious how flight 223 had a magic recovery after the # changed........

Interesting to hear Greta's talk about flight 200 tonight.

The code that was sent to the FAA by the transponder, which signaled a hijacking, has to be manually entered by the pilot. There is a deliberate code that must be entered by the pilot rather than accidentally hitting a switch or button to trigger an alarm. Is it possible that this type of a communication signal from pilot to FAA can be hacked or corrupted? It seems like a curious situation.

Awesome, my kids and I just looked at the moon and there is right now SE, a glowing cross behind it, no lie! It is very bright, very distinct!

Woman on Greta says she saw the missing tanker truck on NJ turnpike through interpass? tanker was in front of her car, looked just like the tanker that's missing. Wrote down the license plate # called FBI, they were rude, woman told her that yes truck was stolen but they found it already. She didn't believe that and said just in case please take down license numbers, woman at first refused then took the number.

Greta: was it the same number? I looked on line, license did not match but if a terrorist they would have changed it.

Thanks. It says "Flight not Found"...For some reason they have been checking the hell out of the baggage on this flight or something before it left I guess. Something to do with the airline crews?....Didn't get the details.

[WestCoastGal]

The link works ;-)

Will try to update at 10pm to see how far this has progressed. The wind has died down here, which is good news and the temp is down as well.

Thanks for the link.......more later.

[TheLion]

Why would the FBI have a "rude" woman answering the line? Hope they taped the call so they can get rid of her....if this is the case!

[Velveeta]

My pleasure.

I can assure you to turn 4 transponder knobs to read 7600 is no malfunction.

UAL 200 just over the West Virginia border . . . my experience with fboweb.com is that the positions run about 10 minutes behind real time (at least on the free version) . . .

[WestCoastGal]

Try this link choose United and type in 200

Thanks.

I've heard this before. Maybe their problem starts right there with the telephone. Every caller should be treated with respect and their information taken down and checked.
