PRELIMINARY REPORT ON ASSOCIATED AIRLINE AIRCRAFT CRASH

The investigation in accordance with the provisions of International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Annex 13, of which Nigeria is a member State. The flight data recorder or FDR contained approximately 47 hours of data in solid state memory.  The recorder downloaded without issue.  There were approximately 50 parameters recorded.  A few parameters were not working properly however we do not think, in this particular case, that it will hamper the overall investigation. The cockpit voice recorder or CVR was an older generation magnetic tape based device.  The CVR’s magnetic tape recording was removed from the unit and replayed on an open reel 4 track tape deck specially adapted for replaying CVR’s of this type.  The CVR contained 32 and one half minutes of audio which included the internal conversation of the two pilots, radio calls and the overall aural environment in the cockpit on the cockpit area microphone.  The CVR was of good quality and the team is in the process of gen

Kris Jenner poses with Bruse and his sons

Kris Jenner has posted a picture on her Instagram page of herself having a mega laugh with her estranged husband Bruce and his sons Brandon and Brody. (Oh wow. So Bruce's sons from another marriage both have names beginning with 'B' while all the kids they had together have names beginning with 'K'. This isn't weird at all .) Anyway, Kris posted the pic with the caption: "Another amazing night @brodyjenner @sprandoni and Bruceeeeee!!! Too fun I love you guys!!! Best hearts #sorryTMZgotitwrongAGAINLOL." The TMZ reference is to a story the website ran that reported how Brody and Brandon were thrilled Kris and Bruce had split as they partially blamed her for the fact Bruce neglected them for most of the last 20 years and failed to pay child support for 10 years. They also said (the final insult) that Bruce would often not call the boys on their birthdays. Since the split they say Bruce has spent more time with them and is trying to reconn

Article: managing stress

An article on sress that you'll find interesting and insightful. Its lenghty though What is stress? Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset your balance in some way. When you sense danger—whether it’s real or imagined—the body's defenses kick into high gear in a rapid, automatic process known as the “fight-or-flight” reaction, or the stress response. The stress response is the body’s way of protecting you. When working properly, it helps you stay focused, energetic, and alert. In emergency situations, stress can save your life—giving you extra strength to defend yourself, for example, or spurring you to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident. Signs and symptoms of stress overload The following table lists some of the common warning signs and symptoms of stress. The more signs and symptoms you notice in yourself, the closer you may be to stress overload. Stress Warning Signs and Symptoms Cognitive Symptoms Emotional Sympt

Drunk easyJet passenger tasered after stripping NAKED and challenging pilot to FIGHT

A drunken passenger was tasered by police after stripping naked on the airport tarmac – and challenging the pilot to a fight. The 52-year-old man, who had arrived in Manchester on an easyJet flight from Malta, also urinated up the side of the Terminal One building. Video taken of the amazing incident shows the burly, bald man removing his clothes on the runway apron and posturing at the captain – before receiving a slap across the face from his female companion. It is understood trouble began mid-flight when the man, who appeared drunk, became abusive and started swearing at fellow passengers. A witness who asked not to be named said: “He’d had an altercation with other passengers and the captain had come down the plane to calm him down.” But on landing at Manchester at 1.28pm, the passenger’s bizarre behaviour continued. It is understood that after coming off the plane, down the steps and on to the tarmac, he stripped to his black underpants and gestured towards

Is Mercy Johnson the Next Bank of Industry Ambassador?

Today Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson  is sparking rumours that she may be next ambassador for Bank of Industry . Just a few hours ago, she  tweeted “At bank of industry for a small meeting.” If you recall, music superstar D’banj was announced as an ambassador for the brand in May.  The movie star chose to attend the meeting with her daughter Purity .

But her mini-me stole the spotlight in a pink-and-white polka dot dress.

Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez's baby name is revealed

Actress Halle Berry and hubby Olivier Martinez have decided on a name for their newborn baby son and as far as celebrity baby names go, it's not completely weird. According to TMZ the couple, who married in France in July, have named him Maceo Robert Martinez, giving a nod to Olivier's Spanish roots. If you want some background on the choice (yeah, we were pretty good at history at school) Maceo is a popular medieval Spanish name which means Gift of God. When Berry's first child, Nahla, was born back in 2008, the 47-year-old mum said: "For us it was hard to name the most important person in our life until we met her," so we wonder how long it took the couple to name Maceo?

Article;10 Ways to Perk Up Your Relationship

i saw this article and i decided to share If you've ever gotten relationship advice, you've probably heard plenty of don't s. Don't nag. Don't stonewall. Don't blame. Don't leave the toilet seat up, don't squeeze the toothpaste tube from the middle, and definitely don't assume he's that into you when he's just not. Well, don't listen. The happiest couples focus on do's, not don'ts. Rather than just steering clear of negative interactions, they actively work to build positivity into their relationships. They show what psychologists call an "approach orientation," moving toward what's good, rather than moving away from what's bad. Traditionally, couples research has focused more on minimizing negatives (arguments, emotional distance, infidelity) than on maximizing positives. But a new wave of research is changing all that. Positivity-oriented psychologists find that maintaining a favorable balance of positive

New dad, 23, dies after breaking up fight while out celebrating his son's birth

A new dad had died after breaking up a fight while out celebrating the birth of his son. Benji Bolsenbroek, 23, was fatally injured trying to break up a brawl in or near the Park Hotel in Linthorpe Road, Middlesbrough. His partner Georgina McGuire was looking after their son Kianey while he went out with friends on Saturday night. In the hours before he died he was reportedly proudly showing off a photo of the newborn. A picture of bare-chested Bolsenbroek cuddling his son is on his Facebook page.

He died at around 1am yesterday at the James Cook University Hospital. A friend writing on the Middlesbrough FC supporters internet forum Fly Me to the Moon said "scumbags" hit Mr Bolsenbroek several times while he was on the floor.

Miley Addresses Nude Picture Controversy, Sinéad O'Connor Feud and More!

  Matt Lauer didn't go easy on Miley Cyrus when she appeared and performed during Today on Monday, Oct. 7. The co-anchor asked the pop star about everything from her risqué photo shoot with Terry Richardson to her war of words with Sinéad O'Connor —and Cyrus maintained her composure throughout the interview. The TV journalist began by asking Cyrus about the constant controversy surrounding her name. "Are you surprised by the attention you're getting right now?" Lauer asked. "Not really," the singer shrugged. "I mean, it's kind of what I want. I'm an artist, so I'm hoping that I get a little attention or my record sales might be a little sketch."

The Reason why nothing happened to Agagu's Coffin

Not only was the casket carrying Agagu's corpse intact after the plane crashed on Thursday morning, people who opened the casket shortly after the crash said the cap on his head stayed intact and his body wasn't ruffled. These discoveries have baffled so many, with some insinuating it's juju. But the reason is really simple. The casket was latched to the hooks in the cargo compartment of the plane and was placed in the rear end of the plane. People who sat at the back of the plane survived the crash, so the casket, which was kept at the back also survived the crash.

Hally Berry and Husband welcome son

Actress Halle Berry and husband, Olivier Martinez, welcomed their first son Saturday. A representative for Berry would not share any other details about the boy — Berry’s second child — including where he was born or his name.

It is the third marriage for the Berry, who revealed in April that she was expecting a baby with the French actor.

They reached “an amicable agreement” over custody in November, a week after a Thanksgiving Day fistfight in Berry’s Hollywood driveway between Martinez and Aubry. Berry was previously married to former pro baseball player David Justice — from 1993 unti

Michael Jackson trial: Family LOSES case against AEG Live over singer's death

The family of Michael Jackson have lost their battle for a £181m payout after a jury ruled his concert promoter was not negligent in hiring the doctor who treated the singer. The King of Pop’s mother Katherine sued AEG Live LLC over the hiring of Dr. Conrad Murray, who was convicted of the singer’s involuntary manslaughter two years ago. The 82-year-old, along with with Jackson’s two eldest children Prince, 16, and Paris, 15, claimed the promoter should have done a thorough background check on Murray. The company denied hiring Murray and said the singer was responsible for his own drug-addled death. The Jackson family are now considering an appeal against the verdict which could cost them million of dollars more in legal fees. A source close to the Jackson said: “The family are naturally devastated by the jury’s verdict.
