We never really know.... It's such a tragedy to hear and read about Flight 8501 of the people and plane. One moment, the plans are filled with ideals of many wonders and joy, and other reasons people choose to travel. Then tragedy strikes. Then to read about the Ferry Fire, where 12 people lost their lives along with two rescue people. I cannot fathom how these Airlines claim profits but they won't invest in a GPS system which is directly linked to Satellites. It is just human greed, as to why there is no investment to address this problem. This is why I have such disdain for some of the new age executives, they are always of concern about their stock options, over inflated salaries, but they find every excuse to claim they can't upgrade their equipment, when the technology is available. Almost every car people buy, has some type of navigation like to GPS, and General Motors has had OnStar for more than a decade. But Airlines can't upgrade their systems, and continue to rely on ineffective ground control, which has too many hand-off from region to region. There needs to be upgrades to the black box, because now we have two planes, which the black box has proven to be insufficient. Satellites, can detect the weather patterns and provide information far better than ground meteorologist. Yet, why is the weather info, not put through a computer and verified by cross match with satellite weather data. Before it is transmitted to the airplanes. Things get gridlocked by inactive and non function performance by executives, who fail to make progressive decisions. I see it everyday, at work, I see it in simple things such as shopping, when the manager notice the line is growing but they won't open more registers, we see it in how processing simple things can be improved, but someone is grid-locking the process by inaction. Something has to change in this world and societies. The first change may be to reduce what these Executives are paid, so they are forced to pay attention to the job, and less attention to the perks and the opulence of their lifestyle. Something has to take their focus from the stock ticker, and put more concern for the consumer and the organizational process and equipments. We trust these business and things, and become reluctant to demand better upgrades in systems that matter. Not in changing the color of the seat covers, and switching up the menu items. How about upgrading the technology that keeps the plane with better information and better tracking. We never know when something may happen- but we still can push to make sure that the best efforts are engaged by the places we do business. It won't remove the fact that we can be in our home or at the park and lightening strikes, all of which is possible. But - that does not mean we should be with any apathy when it comes to demanding that business pushes to get the best safety upgrades. This may be 160 plus individual lives, but those 160+ lives are connected to thousands of others through the expanse of their family and friends. |

People have gone nuts !!!!! [quote] An Edmonton man suspected of killing six adults and two young children before taking his own life was well-known to police and had a lengthy criminal record. But police Chief Rod Knecht told a news conference late Tuesday night that there is no suggestion of gang involvement and the motive for the "senseless mass murder" appears to have been "planned and deliberate" domestic violence. "It's terrible for the city," said Knecht. "The scene ... has been described as chaotic, horrific. Particularly when there's children involved, it has a tremendous impact on our folks." Although he did not release the name of the suspect, Knecht said the man had a criminal record dating back to September 1987 involving drugs and violence. ....Duong, 37, was fatally shot in a home in south Edmonton on Monday while two men and three woman between the ages of 25 and 50, and a girl and a boy — both under the age of 10 — were found dead a few hours later at a home in the northeast. Investigators have determined the 9 mm handgun used in the killings was a registered weapon that had been stolen in Surrey, B.C., in 2006. The suspect was found dead by his own hand in a restaurant in the Edmonton bedroom community of Fort Saskatchewan on Tuesday morning. [/quote]

I also read this news last night. This mad guy shot 7 adults and 2 children and then committed suicide. I have been to Edmonton Shopping Center in Canada. It is the largest mall in the world. It has man-made wave swimming pool inside the mall. It is so huge that you might got lost in it. Honesty is the best policy.

I'm quite dis-satisfied with the insanity of all these killing. I can't fathom why one would kill their family and then themselves. If they want to kill themselves, then they have that choice, but they should not be so wild and mad to harm and kill the family or kill other innocent people. I have no sympathy for these people who go out and rob, kill, and certainly I have no regard for the people who go out and plan to kill others, and this sudden craziness of people pursing the act of killing police is the most absurd things of the times. Something has to change to calm people down. What ever this wave of evil that infects peoples mind, is a tragedy which seem to span the globe. There are crazed people killing their spouses for money, and some even plot this craziness even before they marry.. I think people like that should be directed to the 'Electric Chair". I have seen some of the most absurd things in the news, and it seem that people have some level of desperation which is beyond belief. I don't know what the "change point" is for society to attain a more congenial nature of civil dignity. People want many things. as many will continually come to find, the more things the more responsibilities, and those responsibility include maintenance of many sorts, and many things also means a investment of time, and/or expense to secure those things. The line can get blurred, between whether or not we own the things, or if the things own us. Then we must learn to what degree we are obligated to the things, once we consider them as coveted possessions. Its unfortunate that wisdom cannot be easily passed along, because many times people have to go through the experience of such responsibilities to truly understand the work involved in the things we acquire and possess. Standards change as does models and makes, this in some cases become another spectrum of challenges, depending on how the individual interprets this. Some people have to keep up with the Jones, until they learn different, some people have status aims, which almost dictate they upgrade to continue to present that status imagery. We may over time learn to become with care in our choices, and know more information about what we settle to choose. That simple concept can reduce stress and may diminish anguish, but it is a learned process, that unfortunately some do not learn. Its unfortunate in the whole of the world, with all the information, the advances in technological conveniences and the public accessibility options and accessories. It seems more elements come to bewilder people even more so. Never has it been that so many people publicly claim depression, when so much is available to invest ones-self. What might become of the societies of the future is such a complex variable that may not have a conceptual answer that we can understand. But by some means - as a society of human beings, we need to find value in life, that the inclination to kill, becomes less of a options that people choose. Why so many seem to choose that options so readily, is a very sad condition in the human spectrum.
