MAS-The Whipping Boy

Backlash from Chinese Entertainers

Today marks the 20th day of the disappearance of MH370.

So far, amidst speculation and theories, no plane, bodies or specific debris has been found in the Indian Ocean that can be linked directly to the ill-fated aircraft and its passengers.

The cry for blood continues, however.

Look at the car with the extreme message of disgust against Malaysia.

Disgust in Signage on a Car
Now, apart from condemning Malaysia of bad management of the search and rescue operations, MAS is also getting the short end of the stick from mainland Chinese-tour agencies are not selling MAS tickets any more.

Some photographs here tells us that even entertainment icons like Zhang Zhi Yi and others are asking, in the near term for reprisals-the boycott of films and music and song of Malaysian  actresses.and singers.

With new theories of what may have happened to flight MH370 arriving daily; until we have concrete evidence in hand, the search and sorrow continues!

Recovery and Probable Demystification of MH370

A Model of the Abyss Drone

Now that the official proclamation has been made by Malaysia,the recovery stage will begin.

Drone technology with the capability of scouring ocean beds up to depths of 6 kilometers will be utilised to find the wreckage of MH370.

Only three of these submersible drones called the Abysses are manufactured to date and  one will be employed to do this onerous tasks of recovery as the sea is an 'assorted dustbins of sort'.

In the event that the debris is found particularly the black box, then the mystery of the fatal flight will likely be known. Otherwise the world will continue with its speculation and conspiracy theories.

Alain Bouilard, the man who led the probe into the 2009 Air France probe, has cautioned not to take the tragic pronouncement of the fate of MH370 at face value as he feels that, at this stage,  it has not been fully conclusive.

He told the Daily Telegraph that for him, all those veritable wooden crates and fragments on beaches may not hold the answer at all.  To be conclusive, all debris must be identified, examined and evaluated.

The main issue is to use the latest technology available to pick up signals from the black box. This is  critically vital as the data within it will contain two hours of cockpit conversation and a wealth of flight parameters. Without these,no one will ever  know what transpired that led to the disappearance of flight MH370.

While the seabed probe was done 'without much problems' in the Atlantic for the Air France crash, the Indian Ocean is considered  a 'rogue ocean' that ships avoid because of its unfriendly nature--strong currents,fierce winds, violent storms and 10-meter waves and heavy weather.

The task even using the abyss will be a challenging one.

Official Closure for MH370

Technical Guesstimate with 19th Century Doppler?
Yesterday night 10 pm Malaysian time (24 March 2014), the Malaysian Prime Minister announced that based on sources of reliable satellite data collected and using the Doppler Effect theory, he confirmed formally that MAS flight of MH370 ended tragically at sea in the desolate South Indian Ocean.

Public  Outpouring of Faith Memorabilia 
With that, all grieving relatives as well as participating Search and Rescue nations could make subsequent plans for closure of this tragedy that took the lives of 229 passengers and  10 crew members.

The recovery phase will now begin.

Though no one at the moment knows what really happened on board the fatal plane albeit with all the conspiracy theories and speculation, some almost plausible, swirling around it; the world would have to accept the reality that flight  MH370 has indeed "ended " and has disappeared into the dark depths of the Indian Ocean.

 An Ad Premonition?

This is one gruesome prophecy of MH 370!

That is the first thought that comes to mind!

Is the devil playing tricks on all of us?

Are words of advertisement a premonition of terrible things to come?

14 days and the plane has yet to be found.

The Accused-Gang Rape and Criminal Solicitation

Rape and Criminal  Solicitation

This is one interesting movie about a Assistant District Attorney who plea-bargained a rape case for lesser charges that actually got the same sentence  for the rapists only to be told by the victim that what she did was not enough as she was not consulted on it and she was deem slutty in the public eye.

Realistic acting as a rape victim

Feeling morally wrong, she convinced her office to let those who urged on the rapists to be brought to justice as well by putting the rape victim on the witness stand to be corroborated by another independent witness.
The court found for the rape victim and those who raped her got the sentence extended to the full stretch of 5 years.

An interesting movie that add a twist to how justice is being served especially in  gang rapes and also for those who encouraged the act through the charge and conviction of criminal solicitation.

The Assistant District Attorney, Kathryn Murphy

Kelly McGillis stars as Kathryn Murphy and Jodie Foster played the rape victim, Saras Tobias.

Good movie.
