NEW YORK (AP) - An American Airlines flight that had just taken
off for the Dominican Republic crashed Monday, and buildings
reportedly were on fire in the Queens section of New York City.
Flight 587, an Airbus A300 that can hold 275 passengers, crashed
shortly after 9 a.m. and thick, black smoke could be seen miles
away. There was no report of the number of casualties, either on
the plane or on the ground.
Thick, black smoke could be seen miles away from the crash in
the Rockaways section of Queens.
The crash came two months after the attack on the World Trade
Center, which was destroyed by two Boeing 767s hijacked out of
Boston's Logan Airport. One of the planes was operated by American,
the other by United.
Bill Schumann of the Federal Aviation Administration (news - web sites) said there
was no immediate indication of what caused the crash. He said the
plane crashed about five miles from Kennedy Airport.
All metro area airports - Kennedy, LaGuardia and Newark - were
closed following the crash, in Rockaway, Queens. The Office of
Emergency Management said all bridges and tunnels in the city were
closed except to emergency vehicles.
Planes were being diverted, and Delta Air Lines spokeswoman
Peggy Estes said the airline was working to account for all its
planes.
The mayor canceled his morning events and headed to the scene.
One eyewitness reported debris falling from sky, and told the
Fox News Channel four homes were on fire.
Another told CNN he was 40 blocks away and saw ``just a lot of
smoke. Tons and tons of smoke. You can see emergency vehicles
heading to the area. Lots of people are standing in the streets.
It's very tense.''
Plane Crashes In New York
A plane has crashed into a residential area of New York.
It is understood the plane was an Airbus A300 and suffered engine failure shortly after taking off from JFK airport.
Reports say the aircraft may have been carrying up to 246 passengers when it plunged into homes in Queens.
The jet, thought to be flight 587, was heading to Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic.
There are reports the plane hit a number of homes near Rockaway beach. One eyewitness said pieces of the plane were falling off mid-air.
"I saw a large piece hit a hood of a car," one women told Fox News.
"It seem to fold and fall onto a residential area," adding that she initially thought the plane was a Concorde.
F16 fighter jets are now in the skies of New York - the incident comes two months after the US terrorist attacks on the US.
Security chiefs said there was no evidence of terrorist activity but all airports in New York have now been closed as a precautionary measure. Bridges and tunnels have been closed The city has also been put on the highest state of alert.
A huge plume of smoke is rising above the New York skyline as the wreckage burns.
The Dow Jones dropped 200 points as news of the crash reached the markets.
Early reports said the plane was a Boeing 767 - the same type which crashed into the World Trade Centre.
some good points, i agree.
The only exception is if it's owned by a business and the business changes hands.
could you imagine company buyouts just to get the domain names:-)
This could be the start of lots of free-software games releases ported to the PS.
sony could sell these for a quarter of a normal game and still make money. would also give them more market share.

Linux is not a great web platform compared to NT. you cant get the plugins and the (html) compatibility that IE has, which is one of the reasons why I will never get that win box off my desk.
it would be great if I could run a nice NIX box with a browser to suit my needs. AFAIK my only choices are WINE (not good), MacOSX or Solaris.
Ive heard that m$ have cripled the solaris x86 IE so ppl like me cant dump NT is this true? Is IE betetr on OSX?
The most compatible part of Windows is its BSD TCP/IP stack. Is it good that Microsoft "stole" that code? Imagine how much better the Web would be if IE for Windows used Gecko. Then we would really have a compatible Web, and the Internet Appliance market would probably have a chance because they could put Gecko on top of a BSD TCP/IP stack and the Web would still "look like the Web" to a Windows user, with the same rendering that they see on Windows. You'd be able to run a Gecko-based browser on BSD and a page would look the same as on Windows. In these kinds of common areas, code that everyone can share without restriction really benefits everybody.
i really dont think this will ever happen, m$ could quite eaisily make things easier for everyone including themselves by abiding by standards but look at the cool/c# thing, they wont except that an established well developed laguage (java) is worth its salt, they weren allowed to bend java, so they made their own. grow up bill
in a world where standards were open, eg. all the web servers apache, all clients gecko all communication with bsd based stacks, where would we go then? Too much would be laid bare, prgorammers would be doing exactly the same things and competing to see who has done what best, it would realyl show the bad coders up!
Porting from the PC to console will never be easy anyway. Consider input methods. Most PC games use the mouse, with a lot of keyboard shortcuts. That won't work on a console.
This is very true but lucky for all us; the nice men at sega made a nice mouse and keyboard
dont forget those evil muderous colaborators who built the internet, phone lines and the evil robots that built the computer they sent messages with! also add microsoft to that list - these idiots mahy be able to fly palisn into buildings but I bet that they use outlook express 97 on win95 - theres no way they could get to grips with a decent operating system
Zimmermann shouldn't be getting upset about this and the same applies to the others behind both the privacy tools available to us and the free internet tools that help the net go around.
This Tradegy is very sad but parents should make sure their 13 year old kids dont go around hate mailing people who deserve better.

WAP Bashing
·
· Score: 1, Interesting
wap seems to have just gone away, 12-18 months ago companies couldn't get enough of it and develoers were jumping from html-apps to build these wap things and now most have gone back to html.
has anyone actually used a wap hone and found it really useful beyond impressing colleguges? IE5.5 is better than a nokia anyway:-)
like 64k bugs? And mozzilla which is just a web browser already has 100k? Doesn't that just tell ya something?
but windows was released with 64k bugs unfixed moz has had bugs fixed and the 1.0 release will have few bugs without having to wait for service pack 2.
not only would banning such activites mean a source of intelligence infomation is gone (arguably) but why should we let them win - taking away our channels of free speech and communication would mean they had won yet another victory.
I have smoothwall ready to try out - at the moment I have an old DE-812TP+ which links my desktop to the outside world.
I work in a college and every year a bunch of the oldest pcs are thrown away, this year its the p150's. I have one which has had some fans added, has been overclocked to 200 and has 2 ne2k cards. I plan to site this between the d-link thing and the outside world.
What advantages does debian, *bsd etc have over smoothwall? I know with a diy job I would learn more (good) but with smoothwall its all done for me and theres no chance of mistakes being made.

sounds interesting.
whats your opinions of cvs using it on win32?

imagine a wireless beowolf cluster of these :-)
I know this affects a fair number of users but for the life of me I just don't know why ;)
windows is a major part of computing and of history. many people who work it IT have to come in to contact with windows (like it or not).
there are hundreds of reasons why it would affect us - even if its just because we have a new set of themes to d/l for X!
dont be so ignorant to the world outside slashdot taco (yes one does exist!)
now that xp is available the 2k installs will all start to go pete tong - its a conspiricy! :-)
mods please lable this post as funny not troll!

Would Microsoft's Luna look like it does without Apple's Aqua?
would windows be the bloated monster it is today without 'inspiration' ??? I don't think so!
how useable is IE on the mac?

bugzilla is a cool idea - like all ideas its simple, works well and you know that you should have though of it first.
its thigns like bugzilla and cvs that have made free(beer) what it is today.
not only would banning such activites mean a source of intelligence infomation is gone (arguably) but why should we let them win - taking away our channels of free speech and communication would mean they had won yet another victory.
