A new Release photo from 9-11 incidents

An AOL News:


These aerial images of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001, were released by ABC News on Wednesday, showing the attacks from new angles. They were taken by the New York City Police Department. Here, smoke billows from one of the towers after being hit by an airliner as part of a coordinated terrorist attack.



The upper floors of one of the towers burns after the attack. A total of four jets were hijacked by Islamic terrorists on Sept. 11. The al-Qaida-affiliated hijackers slammed two of those jets --- American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 -- into the Twin Towers that morning. Some 2,975 people died in the attacks.

The towers collapsed as huge fires caused by the impact of the plane crashes spread. About 2,600 people were killed in New York alone.

Both towers collapsed within two hours of the attacks, which began at 8:46 a.m., bringing down nearby buildings with them.

The towers collapsed as people inside them tried to escape. Some plunged to their deaths by jumping out windows before the buildings fell.

Smoke and ash from the skyscrapers engulfed lower Manhattan.

There were two other attack sites on 9/11. One airliner was flown into the Pentagon, killing 125 people. And the fourth plane to crash that day went down in a field in Shanksville, Pa. The official 9/11 Commission report said the hijackers crashed the plane as passengers tried to seize control. Here, smoke fills lower Manhattan after the towers collapsed.

ABC News obtained these images after filing a Freedom of Information Act request last year with the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The NIST collected them as part of an investigation into the collapse of the towers. (Sources: AP, ABC News)

Infant formula vs breastfeeding

i just could not believe the news that I read from King5.com about infant formula which was imported from China. There is a present of melamine element which this element are using for making plastic wares like plates and etc. The infant formula were contaminated with this and this is dangerous for the babies. Here is the link http://www.king5.com/topstories/stories/NW_091108NAB_fda_tainted_formula_KS.677d4f72.html but you can read it here because I will paste it below:

FDA: Infant formula from China tainted by chemical
12:18 PM PDT on Thursday, September 11, 2008

By Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Federal officials say tainted infant formula from China may be on sale at ethnic groceries in this country. The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday urged U.S. consumers to avoid all infant formula from China, after several brands sold in that country were found to be contaminated with melamine, a chemical used in making plastics. The FDA says all U.S. brands of infant formula are safe.

But officials are concerned that some Chinese formula may be on sale at ethnic groceries, particularly in places like New York and San Francisco that have large populations of Chinese immigrants. No Chinese brands are approved for export to the United States.

There have been no reports of illnesses in the U.S.

Why we will not give to our children a good start by giving a breast milk where nothing to worry about. Aside from those mothers that is taking dangerous medicine because they were ill or drugged. That is the downside but if we are capable to feed our baby why won't do it. Why we let them eat the cow's milk as their start living in this world.
