Well, air traffic controllers in Minneapolis where a Northwest commercial plane flew passed its scheduled destination, weren’t the only ones concerned, it turns out the White House was also monitoring the situation, but it’s still unclear if president Obama knew about it. Northwest flight 188 was out of contact, out of radio contact, any kind of communication in fact for more than an hour Wednesday night flying 150 miles beyond where it was supposed to land.


We are here about a hundred yards away from the scene of the fire, still burning this morning. We understand that there are still five tanks burning, so far it’s estimated that the government of Puerto Rico has spent about 6.4 million dollars and President Barack Obama yesterday declared an emergency which is going to free up funds for the EPA and other federal agencies to come and help in the operation. We understand that there are about 1500 who were evacuated 1 from this area, and also at the same time, they are getting  a stadium, a nearby stadium ready in case it’s needed because in this area surrounding the scene of the fire, we have about 45,000 people just in the close proximity 2, and so if it’s needed, they’re getting this stadium ready where everything that people are gonna need to, to be there…


President Obama declaring a national emergency over the spread of the H1N1 flu virus, that declaration 3 is meant to cut through red tape for health care facilities. Still though, federal officials say that production of vaccine 4 is slower than expected.


A teenage girl who had been wandering the streets of New York for 2 weeks, there is a picture of her, claiming that she didn’t know her name, or who she was, may finally get some answers.

She will be reunited with her family in Washington State.
