Airline employee steals, crashes plane near Seattle

     US authorities are investigating the Friday night crash of a Horizon Air Q400 aircraft near Seattle-Tacoma airport in Washington state after an airline employee took off without clearance and flew the plane for about an hour before it crashed. 
    Two F-15 military fighter jets went up into the air in order to intercept the stolen airliner, and the airport closed for a short time.
    There were no passengers on board except the person who was operating the plane. It is believed that he is Richard Russel, a 29 year old local man who worked for the airline. Some media images showed the aircraft doing complicated and dangerous flying before crash. In an audio recording a conversation with an air traffic controller, the person piloting the aircraft said he was a “broken guy”.

The legislation follows a year-on-year increase in drone incidents. 

Joana Whitehead

    New laws introduced today will restrict all drones from flying above 400 feet or within one kilometer of airport boundaries. The legislation follows a year-on-year increase of drones incidents with aircraft, with 93 reported in 2017. The measures are hoped to reduce the possibility of damage to windows and engines of planes and helicopters. 
    Further laws will require owners of drones weighing 250 grams or more to register with the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). The majority of drones users considered it is vital for drone pilots to adhere to the rules and guidelines of the CAA, a set of rules introduced to promote safe and responsible drone use.
Drones are here to stay, not only as a recriational pastime, but as a vital tool in many industries – from agriculture to blue-light services – so incresing public trust through safe drone flying is crucial.

Hanging out 

R. Jordania

In american cities, teenagers like to spend time together – “hang out”, as they say – at drugstore, luncheonettes, or ice cream parlors.
Often, they don’t even meet inside, but gather on the sidewalk in front of the store. From time to time they go in for coffee, milk, ice cream. They also like to play the pinball machines. 
Most parents disapprove of their children’s “hanging out” that way. They consider it a waste of time, which could be better used doing homework, working at a part-time job, or helping in the house.

Loch Ness is a lake (or ‘loch’ in Scottish Gaelic) located in the Highlands of Scotland, near Inverness. People say there is a monster in it, which is called Nessie.

In 1933, George Spicer described that he saw Nessie and it was a "dragon1'. It was 4 feet high, 25 feet long and had a long neck.

In 1934, Robert Kenneth Williams took the first photo of the Loch Ness Monster’s neck and head. This photo was published in the Daily Mail newspaper in April 1934. Around 1994, the photo was declared to be a hoax. 

In 1934, Edward Mountain sent an expedition to Loch Ness from 9 am to 6 pm every day, for 5 weeks. They never found any evidence of the Monster.

In 2003, the BBC TV network made a show that did a detailed search of Loch Ness. They found nothing and concluded that the Monster was a myth.
