However, the officials are not willing to say so definitively until data from the plane s black boxes have been retrieved.

The black boxes remain unaccou nike air max nted for, but once recovered they should be able to provide detailed information about altitude, airspeed and engine performance as well as the pilot s final words.Bad weather hindered efforts to recover victims Wednesday and adidas sambarose sent wreckage drifting far from the crash site, as grieving relatives surrounded in darkness gathered in an airport and prayed for the strength to move forward.The massive hunt for 162 people who vanished Sunday aboard the Airbus A320 from Surabaya, Indonesia to Singapore, was severely limited due to heavy rain, wind and thick clouds.

For 14 years, Ukraine has coped with the legacy of the world s worst nuclear disaster at Chernobyl a stanley quencher nd the path to recovery is still long. Now the government is again promising to shut the ill-fated plant, but refuses to give a date. Chernobyl will be closed down, Prime Minister Viktor Yushchenko pledged Tuesday night, the eve of the accident s anniversary. He spoke after laying a wreath at a memorial to firefighters who were among the first to combat radioactive flames from the disaster and among the first to die.The pre-dawn accident on April 26, 1986 sent a cloud that rained radiation over much of Europe and contaminated large areas in then-Soviet Ukraine, Russia and Belarus.According to Ukrainian government figures, more than 4,000 of those who took part in the hasty and poorly organized Soviet cleanup effort have died, a stanley termoska nd more than 70,000 Ukrainians were fully disabled by the disaster.Overall, about 3.4 mi stanley cup llion of Ukraine s 50 million people, including about 1.26 million children, are considered affected by Chernobyl.

Fsli Iraqi police battle gunmen in gov t compound
Note from the editor: Senior U.S. and Chinese officials begin Wednesday the fifth annual Strategic and Economic Dialogue SED in Washington, a bilateral summit aimed at getting the world s two largest economies to forge agreements on everything from trade subsidies to cybersecurity. This year s summit comes after a series of accusations that China has attacked U.S. government and corporate websites in an effort to disrupt them and steal data. The Chinese leveled similar accusations back at Washington, but both sides now at least acknowledge a problem. Days before the summit, CBS News s Shannon Van Sant interviewed a man in Bejing who was once dubbed the king of China s hackers. What Wan Tao told CBS News suggests that -- even if Chinese and U.S. leaders can agree to lower their governments cyber arms -- there may be hackers who are happy to continue the fight on their own.BEIJING Wan Tao was once one of China s most effective hackers, but he didn t do it for the government -- at least not officially airforces . Online, he went by the name Eagle and led a collective of about 400 fellow hackers called China adidas campus 00 Eagle Union. They launched cyber atta yeezy cks on any entity they believed was an enemy of China. In spite of speculation that the Union was linked to the Chinese government, Wan told CBS News his hacking was done independently and voluntarily, driven by nationalism and a fundamental desire for self-expression. Every man in every country has a dream, said Wan. That dream Rcxu Colombia Peace

Nhpd Syrian, Lebanese Leaders Open Talks
BEIJING -- When you think of Communist propaganda, dusty old movie-poster style images may come to mind. But there s a new era of propaganda in China. The ruling Communist Party is taking its message into the digital age.The latest clip making the rounds on China s state-run media shows a cartoon of President Xi Jinping, going after and punishing officials with a mallet, whack-a-mole style; it s the - animated tale of Xi s crackdown on corruption.China s messaging machine has always been an important way to communicate here, and after President Xi took power in 2012, he tasked a top-level committee with finding innovative ways of producing propaganda.Some efforts try to tackle rather dry subjects. One, for instance, breaks-down the so-called Four Comprehensives, a government proclamation all about China s long term development.President Xi has consolidated powe adidas campus beige r more quickly than his predecessors, and we ve seen a growing cult of personality around him. To that end, there s one propaganda clip called Marry him. It s a little ditty that includes the lyrics: If you want to marry, marry someone like Xi Dada, a man full of heroism with an unyielding spirit.

Hordes of angry opposition supporters are still marching through the snowy capital of Ukraine in sustained dispute over last weekend s elections. The protests have been marked by civility, although the opposition leader threatened strikes by his supporters after being declared the looser. CBS News Correspondent Richard Roth reports that a government commission today declared Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych the official winner, which caused backlash from a chorus of Western capitals, including Washington. We cannot accept this result as legitimate because it does not meet international standards and because there has not been an investigation of the numerous and credible reports of fraud and abuse, Powell said. But, as Roth reports, Ukraine s ruling party has rejected the West s criticism as interference. The government s position is that Yanukovich, backed by Moscow and favoring close ties to Russia, is offic stanley uk ially president-elect. Powell said there would be consequences for U.S.-Ukraine relations if the government there did not act immediately and responsibly to find a solution that respected the will of its people.

And a workers candidate employs a rifle, a symbol of power.Egypt s election is being fought on the field of symbols. But it s more than just using the elephant and donkey as mascots, as Republicans and Democrats do in the United States.In Egypt, pictograms enable the illiterate half of the electorate to identify candidates on the ballots. In each district, candidates pick from a list of 40 symbols, drawn up by authorities. That symbol goes on posters, banners and next to the names on the ballot.The use of representative party symbols is common in the elections of developing countries. Symbols such as bicycles, hands, flowers and a stanley thermosflasche nimals are routinely used in India and Bangladesh.But the problem in Egypt is that candidates do not have a free choice of symbols and many complain that the most powerful pictograms are given to ruling party candidates.
