    NEW YORK (CNN) -- An American Airlines jet with 255 people on board crashed Monday on takeoff from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport. The plane went down at 9:17 a.m. EST in the Rockways section of the New York City borough of Queens, about five miles from Kennedy Airport. CNN confirmed the plane was American Airlines Flight 587 from New York to Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The plane was a Boeing Airbus A300. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said the plane was carrying 246 passengers and nine crew members. Asked if terrorism was suspected, Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Bill Schumann said, "All options are open at this time. We have very limited information." The Pentagon said surveillance fights were going on in the area and nothing unusual had been spotted. At least four houses were on fire, and a huge plume of smoke could be seen rising from the site. The New York Fire Department dispatched 44 firetrucks and 200 firefighters to the scene. All three New York City-area airports -- Kennedy, LaGuardia and Newark -- closed after the crash, along with all the city's bridges and tunnels. Mayor Rudy Giuliani declared a Level One emergency, mobilizing all available police, fire and emergency personnel.

    Heres The BBC:An American Airlines flight on its way to John F Kennedy airport has crashed in New York. At least four buildings in the Rockaway Beach area of the city's borough of Queens are on fire. It is not known why the aircraft crashed or how many people were on board, or in the buildings now ablaze. New York Mayor Rudolph Guiliani is on his way to the crash site and has called a level one alert. There is no indication at the moment that the crash is anything other than an accident. The weather was crystal clear when the plane - thought to be a Boeing 767 - went down. Both towers of the World Trade Center in New York were destroyed on 11 September after 767s were flown into them. All three airports serving New York - JFK, Newark and La Guardia - are now closed. The Dow index dropped 200 points on hearing the news.

    NEW YORK -- An American Airlines Airbus A300 crashed Monday morning in the Queens section of New York, and buildings reportedly were on fire in the neighborhood. The plane crashed shortly after 9 a.m. and thick, black smoke could be seen miles away. All metro area airports were closed following the crash, in the Rockaways section of Queens. 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 area. Lots of people are standing in the streets. It's very tense." The cause of the crash was not immediately known. 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.

    People talk about why we are hated and what we did in the past and they always point to us, its our fault. What happened to nationalism? I dont blindly follow our governemnt but i also dont feed into what the media says. We do the best we can. Yes we do screw up but everyone does. We follow the rules and gerenaly dont lie. But other countrys dont follow the rules and lie. "Government sanctions have killed over a million Iraqies" Thats the biggest load ive ever heard. Iraq can trade thier oil for food they just cant get moeny for thier oil. Saddam has killed hundreds of thousands of more people with biological waepons then we ever killed in total. An the Media will glorify anything for a buck. The Groups in the middle east lie to reporters and ambassadors b/c they know that there are a certian amount of gullible ppl who will believe them. Well it you have a military base with the words "Civilian hospitial" written on it, does it mean we should not attack it? No, but then the tell the press and other countries that we destoryed a civilian hospital. People always question what our government says and does yet never seem to question the oppisition. Since when do we as americans put more faith in what our enemy says about us. If you feel simpathic to the enemy move over there, because we are at war and the PROPAGANDA IS EVERYWHERE... Dont be the fool that followed Hitler.

  21. I use Automated Dialers at work.... on TeleZapper - A Way to Avoid Telemarketers? · · Score: 1

    Im a system admin at a Telebanking company, I make myself feel better about this by realizing we call ppl to help them out financially(refinaincing) we do not solicite any services or products. But I work with a couple of predictive dialers and they all work off of noise. If there is a no pause between the person answering the phone and the person talking it knows its an answering machine etc. But this device they talk about works on the concept that when the dialer connects a tone identical to the tone for dissconnected gets emmited. However that does not add you to thier DNC(do not call DB). The best Way to get off the lists is to ask to be removed. Then every other time the company starts a new campiage(usally for several different customers) it checks for your name on the DNC list. Also check with your local state, most states have a DNC list that EVERY telemarketer has to subsribe to to add to their own DNC. Hope this sheds some light on the subject.
