- Go here now!DfieldVIPDined on 11/23/2014This was one of my best dining experiences in a long time. GREAT food - and it's really fun to have it served family style. Awesome service. Very helpful and full of suggestions. The VALUE is outstanding, and the fact it is BYOB enables you to bring that nice bottle of wine without breaking the bank. I brought my mother for her birthday, and it just was a great great experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great neighborhood gem. Love the BYOB.FoodieFooDined on 11/21/2014I dined at Bistro Dre a few months back with a party of 6. The food and service is great. We were going to a show at the Anthenium Theater and our waiter even took another 10% off our bill. A small restaurant which packs them in. Portions are very generous in size. Great for sharing. The only drawback is the clost proximity of dining, but hey...with great food, service and ambiance it is totally worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- As always, terrific food and excellent service.GrannyDined on 11/13/2014This charming bistro never disappoints! The food (fried chicken, drunken pork chop, warm asparagus salad, charcuterie and cheese platter and Banana Bread Baked Alaska) was all superb. We love our New Yorker waiter and the wonderful owner who gives out toys to kids!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Poor ServiceMikeVIPDined on 11/8/2014Came back for brunch after having dinner last week. Sat afternoon at 3:00, 2 tables full but our server was less than atentive. Food was fine but had to ask for everything.Special Features:
- Great neighborhood placeCasDinerVIPDined on 11/6/2014Bistro Dre is a cozy place with good food, generous portions, and amiable service. It's also BYOB with no corkage fee, which is a bonus.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- New Food FindJudithofGoldDined on 11/5/2014I like the idea of BYOB and family style dining. So my husband and 25 year old son & I went to try it on a Wed night at 7PM. When we arrived, the owner seemed distracted, thought it was not yet busy. He seated us, and we were given water. while we waited for our server, we looked around. It is a very small space, and every inch is filled with "stuff" all over the walls. lots of kitsch. The menu was very interesting, and we decided on Mac & cheese and flatbread to start. The mac & cheese was amazing, with sundried tomatoes. The flatbread with veggies and goat cheese was very good, just too much spinach. but great crispy crust. Whitefish and chicken scallopini were great, service uneven. We will give it another try.Special Features:
- Great meallocalsVIPDined on 11/2/2014I took my mom and girlfriend here this past weekend and it was a very good meal. BYOB is awesome, as it's very fitting for the restaurant. We got 3 dishes; the garden flatbead, the fried chicken dish and poutine. The flatbread had arugula, roasted garlic, tomatoes and mozzarella on it and it was fantastic. The fried chicken was exceptional, the ONLY thing I'd change is make it chicken breasts or tenders instead of thighs. The poutine was good, but at this point we were very full. Overall I'd love to go back!Special Features:
- Birthday CelebrationMikeVIPDined on 11/1/2014Shared a delightful dinner with friends celebrating a couple of birthdays. Good food, good friends and pleasent service. Will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AwesomeDavidVIPDined on 11/1/2014One of the better meals I've had in Chicago - highly recommend for dinner
- Killer QuicheOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/1/2014Went for Sat brunch. Best quiche I've ever had...fluffy and rich, nice combo of veggies. Place was packed so staff was a bit overwhelmed, but definitely going back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Quaint and deliciousJennBDined on 10/30/2014This place has comfort food done really well. With French and American fusion, everything was fantastic, the salads are plenty to share and delicious. All the enrees were fantastic, and you can't beat BYOB.Special Features:
- Bill GGriffVIPDined on 10/30/2014The food was okay except for the beet dish which was outstanding. Service was awful. I got my steak fritte and waiter said he would bring a steak knife. I waited there or four minutes staring at the meat. I ended up using the dull butter knife. Checkout watch when I asked for the check. Waited and waited. My wife left to make phone calls outside. Seven minutes before the check arrived. I've been here twice: first and last.
- Weeknight casualRugbyMomDined on 10/23/2014Service was a little slow at first and the sharing concept was not well-explained. But the waiter steered us away from ordering way too much food, so it worked out fine for us. More food than I needed but perfect amount for my partner with two starters and one entree. The apple spinach salad was very tasty. The stuffed beet is unusual--but still, basically, a big beet. Whitefish was very moist and had good flavor. The bacon pairing is different and not central to the dish. We would definitely return. Now that we know that one starter and one entree is plenty for two to share, it is a very good value.Special Features:
- WowPickyVIPDined on 10/23/2014I'm not easily wowed, but this restaurant deserves accolades! Exceptionally good and innovative food, the best service I've experienced in a long time and very reasonable prices. The entree portions are big enough to share for 2. We started with soup, had the whitefish entree and, thankfully,finished with the salty caramel drizzled over banana bread with a scoop of ice cream. Insane. Were we not rushing to theater, I probably would have licked the plate. It's a small place so make reservations so you don't miss out.Special Features:
- Fun and different, w/o being weirdjillbermanVIPDined on 10/18/2014This small place fun. Our waiter was extremely funny and good. A NY type. Many of the menu items are designed to share. Servings were very generous. One drawback is that it's BYOB (no corkage fee) and we didn't know that. So be aware. Food was superfresh, lots of selection, many healthy choices. Definitely worth a visit.Special Features:
- Great waiter, good food, too smokyAndyJVIPDined on 10/16/2014The service: our waiter was great. He was friendly & knew the menu well and seemed genuinely to care if we enjoyed the food. The food: had the beet appetizer which was ok but kind of bland. Wife had the pork chop, a huge portion with well executed risotto and a delicious sauce. I had steak frites. The steak was good but the frites were soggy and cold and seemed like they'd been sitting in the window waiting for the rest of the meal. The chocolate trio dessert was rich and plenty to share. The ambiance: The kitchen exhaust could not keep up with the cooks and the whole dining room was smoky, so we left smelling like we just cooked on the line all night. This alone will keep me from returning unless we could sit outside.Special Features:
- A Great Chicago RestaurantBrianVIPDined on 10/7/2014Great service and really good food. Creative menu provides plenty of choices.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Perfect eveningBernieDined on 10/4/2014When I gave the hostess my name for our reservation I glanced over at the table for two near the window and asked if we might sit there...the owner stepped in and said, "but I thought you asked for a table next to a wall?" He actually read my note on Open Table...off to a good start. The window seat is charming and cozy.... Highly recommend this table. The menu is extensive enough with sophisticated offerings. We shared the mushroom tart (delish) the steak frites (perfect) and the Banana Bread Alaska (OMG.) And the BYOB is the cherry on top. Loved it all. Our server, Maggie was delightful! Will return.Special Features:
- Quaint and funFamilyof4Dined on 10/4/2014We enjoyed an early dinner before a concert and loved this restaurant. The staff was very accommodating and the food was delicious.

- Great ambiance but food was so-soUrbanfoodieVIPDined on 9/27/2014Picked this spot due to the great yelp reviews in the area. The ambiance was great- a nice neighborhood spot with good service. The food, however, was lacking when it came to flavor. The macaroni and cheese was promised to be "the best in town" but unfortunately wasn't close. Our medium rare steak of the day came out well done. And everything needed a touch of salt. Too bad because we did love the ambiance.Special Features:
- sg2014VIPDined on 9/24/2014wide range of offerings...every thing we have tried has been exceptional...desserts, homemade by the owner's wife, are superb..very cozy, but not crowded, charming room...very pleasant and efficient service...a really fun byobSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Creative Menu | Many Veggie ChoicesmbrownstoneDined on 7/24/2014We loved this neighborhood gem. Friendly wait staff who know the menu. The dishes are a creative twist on comfort food served family style, so all are intended for sharing. I can see coming back many times to work our way through all the items on the menu. We sat outside and although this is on a busy street, it did not feel like we were in the traffic like other Chicago sidewalk cafes. BYOB. Great spot for pre-theater dining -- near the Atheneum. The waiter paced our meal perfectly to get us out in time for the show.Special Features:

Their Belgium fries are out of this world. Enjoy as a date night or with a group and BYOB!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A memorable dinnerweh2funDined on 6/28/2014We chose Bistro Dre because of it's proximity to the Athenaeum Theater. We were very pleasantly surprised at the creativity of the menu, the friendliness of the staff and owners and the charming ambience. We especially enjoyed the way they served each item family style, so we could enjoy a portion of every dish. It would be a fun way to have dinner with a small group. The Whitefish with Quinoa, Bacon and Fennel Crust was fabulous - incredible crispy edges infused with a luscious, smoky bacon flavor. The Surf and Turf (Filet and Shrimp) was done to perfection and the steak was sliced horizontally so each of us could have plenty of the seared crust. The Banana Bread Alaska is a dessert not to be missed. We will return soon!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

How long does it take to get the benefits of CPAP once you start wearing the mask?
It's a basic question, but so many questions are similar but different, I haven't found an answer yet. To clarify:
1) Forget how long it takes to get used to CPAP. I know that is a major issue worthy of lots of discussion, but let's assume you have been able to wear it on a daily basis...
2) I know it varies - but what about in general? For example if someone asks about recovery from the common cold, we can say: The majority feel better after 7 days, 20% need 14 days to recover, etc, etc (made up stats).
3) If it matters, or if anyone cares, my specifics: Just completed third night of CPAP and in the morning the machine index is showing around 3.0 (good right?). On my sleep study I was only able to score 9 full apneas, but managed to score over 100 hypopneas :). Oxygen low point was 78%. Overall index was over 40.
After 3 nights I definitely feel different - but it's a weird feeling - groggy for a much longer period of time, like I was put to sleep by animal tranquilizer dart.
I think I feel a bit better but definitely not "cured". My main hope is to regain my ability to concentrate for long periods. I'm a computer programmer and currently I can work for about an hour before it gets really difficult.
I want to be hopeful!
Thank you -

Archive for the 'Los Angeles' tag
Los Angeles, 1961
The flattening of Bunker Hill to create the modern downtown Los Angeles faced plenty of opposition, largely from preservationists opposed to the indiscriminate leveling of a historic section of town. Fortunately, at least one photographer – Palmer Conner – kept a photographic record of the changes in the area, including glimpses of some of the old Bunker Hill architecture, and the Huntington Digital Library has posted those photos, including today's carspotting exercise, which looks east on West First Street from Flower to Hope. What do you see here?
Also, tank.
Los Angeles, 1960
I'll make a rare exception to our no-vintage-accident-photos rule today with this Los Angeles Examiner photo of the traffic backup caused by what appears to be a single-car accident on the median of the Hollwyood Freeway at Alvarado Street (from the Rosemont Avenue overpass) on February 9, 1960. It seems like the backup isn't so much the result of rubberneckers as it is the police officers holding up traffic so the emergency responders can get to the scene. What do you see here?
Los Angeles, 1968
Los Angeles is a town that constantly reinvents itself, so it's surprising to see that not a lot has really changed in this 1968 view of Sunset Boulevard looking west from Clark/San Vicente, which we came across on i am so retro. There's the 9000 Sunset building up ahead on the left, Whisky a Go Go on the immediate right, and even a gas station still on the corner on the left. What do you see here?
Los Angeles, 1954, part 4
While we have a number of commenters here who dig architecture as much as cars, the latter remains our main focus, but one can't help but admire the buildings that seem to perfectly complement the cars in these photos of Los Angeles, circa 1954, which we came across over at the Neat Stuff Blog. Above, we see a stretch of Wilshire Boulevard facing east, and below, another stretch of Wilshire further east with the Bryson Apartment Hotel in the background. At the bottom, an unidentified location in Los Angeles from the same year. What do you see here?
Los Angeles, 1950s
For such an iconic location, it's odd that we've only seen the intersection of Hollywood and Vine in Los Angeles a couple times so far in our carspotting series. Let's rectify that with this street scene that we came across over at LosAngelesPast.com, depicting the intersection sometime in the 1950s, when apparently the only traffic control was a single stop sign. What do you see here?
Hollywood show salutes law enforcement with 10-4 Day
1956 Buick Special 'Highway Patrol' tribute car. Photos courtesy 10-4 Day.
Police dramas have long been a staple of Hollywood, produced for big screens and small screens alike. Many who have pursued a career in law enforcement attribute their interest to the early influence of television shows like Highway Patrol, Adam-12, Starsky & Hutch, CHiPs and countless others where the good guys always get the bad guys. Each October 4 (10-4, radio code for "affirmative"), Los Angeles Councilman Tom LaBonge's office hosts an event called "10-4 Day," which unites stars of past police dramas with iconic police cars, all to promote a message of public safety and pay tribute to local law enforcement.
The event stars cars like a 1955 Buick Century, sprayed in a livery identical to the cruiser driven by Broderick Crawford in the series Highway Patrol; Kawasaki KZ-1000P motorcycles as ridden by the stars of CHiPs; a replica of the Ford Torino (known as the "Striped Tomato") from Starsky & Hutch; and even a replica of KITT, the sentient 1982 Pontiac Trans Am driven by David Hasselhoff in the series Knight Rider. Celebrities expected at this year's event include Paul Michael Glaser (Detective David Starsky, from Starsky & Hutch), Erik Estrada (Officer Frank "Ponch" Poncharello, from CHiPs) and Martin Milner (Officer Pete Malloy, from Adam-12).
A 'Starsky & Hutch' tribute Ford Torino.
The cars depart from Los Angeles Fire Department Station 27, located at 1327 North Cole Avenue in Hollywood, then head down Hollywood Boulevard "Code 3″ (with lights and sirens) before parking in front of Broderick Crawford's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (across from the El Capitan Theater). Speeches are given, and the cars are parked for roughly half an hour, allowing ample time for photo opportunities.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the event, which has grown in both size and scope since its origination. Those owning vintage police cars are encouraged to participate, and those who grew up watching police shows won't want to miss the chance to see their favorite actors in the flesh. The event is free to the public; for more details on 10-4 Day, visit the Hemmings Events Calendar.
Los Angeles, 1958
It wasn't too long ago we took a look at Los Angeles's Farmers Market in a photo from 1975, and thanks to the 1956 Eldorado Biarritz Survivor Roster, we see another photo of the market's parking lot from 1958 or thereabouts, and from a slightly different angle. Of course there's an Eldorado in there, but what else do you see?
Petersen Automotive Museum to take on new look
Images courtesy Petersen Automotive Museum.
If there's one thing executives at the Petersen Automotive Museum insist they will not change with their plans to renovate the museum, it's the mission of the museum. Everything else, though, appeared up for revision, including the museum's entire look and feel.
The plans, revealed this morning at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance and intended to coincide with the museum's 20th anniversary, include a complete renovation of the museum's interior and exterior, a "restored, refined and upgraded" permanent collection, an additional 15,000 square feet of gallery space, and a capital campaign to raise the funds to pay for the exterior renovations.
"The Petersen will continue the mission set forth by its founder, Robert E. Petersen, to showcase the automobile's role in art and culture, both locally and globally, while celebrating Southern California's place as the epicenter of the automotive landscape," Petersen officials noted in a press release.
The new look of the museum, designed by New York-based architectural firm Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates, incorporates ribbons of stainless steel wrapped around three sides of the 300,000-square-foot building constructed in 1962 to house a department store. According to the press release, the "sculptured metal exterior" makes "a visceral statement that evokes the imagery of speed and the organic curves of a coach-built automobile." A. Eugene Kohn of Kohn Pederson Fox noted that "the goal is to make (the Petersen) a place you'd want to be at because these cars are works of art. That is what this building will now do. It will fully represent the car as art."
In addition to the 15,000 more square feet of gallery space, the "cutting-edge" interior will also feature new lighting and interactive displays.
Terry Karges, executive director of the museum, called the new design radical and said that he expects some people not to like it. "Remember, the Petersen is an art museum, celebrating the art of the automobile," he said. "We're not concerned with going too far with the redesign, but we are concerned about how to remain relevant for the next 50 years. We will really try to speak to all of the automotive 'tribes' out there."
When current chairman of the Petersen museum's board of directors, Peter Mullin, assumed that role in January, he said that he wants to transform the Petersen into one of the world's great automotive museums. "There's a great opportunity for the Petersen to expand from Southern California car culture into the world of cars as art, cars as freedom and cars as solutions to transportation problems," he told the New York Times.
Museum officials have come under fire in recent weeks for selling off a portion of the museum's permanent collection of 400-plus vehicles in advance of these renovation plans. A dozen former Petersen vehicles sold for $8.5 million at the Gooding Amelia Island auction while an undisclosed number Petersen vehicles sold with no reserve at the Auctions America Burbank auction. Petersen officials have declined to comment on the exact number of vehicles listed at the latter event. The sale of vehicles has prompted California Attorney General Kamala Harris's office to speak with officials from the Petersen and the Los Angeles County Natural History Museum, which may have provided some of the vehicles in the Petersen's collection.
According to Karges, most of the cars sold at those two auctions were never meant to be part of the Petersen's permanent collection. "Many were donated, and the Petersen only accepts donations without restrictions," Karges said. "Many were inoperable, or in need of significant and expensive repair. In the past we pursued many opportunistic purchases, which left us with a very eclectic collection. Did we learn valuable lessons in the deaccession process? Yes we did, and chief among them is that a museum can't wait 20 years to sell off inventory that won't be displayed. Though we're far more sensitive to the fears of the enthusiast community, it's a moot point, since a sell-down of this magnitude won't be repeated."
Petersen officials noted this morning that the museum's upgraded permanent collection will include "historically significant American and European classics, hot rods, groundbreaking race cars, the latest in alternative fuel technology, cars with Hollywood heritage and even vehicles designed and built in Los Angeles itself." Karges said that the museum has already begun adding to its collection.
The capital campaign will begin immediately, and Karges said that he hopes to begin the exterior renovations in March 2014, with the goal of completing the renovations by the second quarter of 2014. Petersen officials did not say how much the renovations will cost or how much money they expect to raise in the capital campaign.
Along with his wife Margie, Robert Petersen opened the Petersen Automotive Museum in 1994 in part to house his collection of cars. Robert Petersen died in 2007, while Margie Petersen died in 2011. For more information about the Petersen, visit Petersen.org.

Breast Cancer Research Initiative
The Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Coalition's 2014-2015 Breast Cancer Research Grant Initiative will be posted online by Monday, September 1, 2014.

RFP Application Checklist
Click here to view the history of grants awarded by the Coalition.
Tuesday, March 25, 2014
The Breast Cancer Coalition awarded two $50,000 breast cancer research grants. The Coalition's local Research Initiative has given more than $480,000 to Upstate New York researchers since 2003. These grants, unusual for a nonprofit "grassroots" organization, focus on breast cancer cause, prevention, prevention of metastasis, and cure and are an integral part of the Coalition's continuing efforts to eradicate breast cancer. The following recipients were selected via a competitive application and review process.
Helene McMurray, PhD, Assistant Professor, and Mark D. Noble, PhD, Professor, Dept. Of Biomedical Genetics, University of Rochester Medical Center (UR Medicine) received $50,000 as co-investigators of the "Selective targeting of breast cancer initiating cells to prevent metastasis and promote long term survival." Doctors McMurray and Noble will test a strategy that appears to offer hope in controlling tumor growth and metastasis. Their work may provide a fast track to clinical trials of treatments with long lasting efficacy and better safety than current methods.
Gokul M. Das, PhD Associate Professor of Oncology at Roswell Park Cancer Institute will investigate the "Role of Estrogen Receptor Beta (ERβ) and Tumor Suppressor p53 Signaling in Triple Negative Breast Cancer Metastasis." Recent data from Dr. Das's laboratory on the function of ERβ in conjunction with a major tumor suppressor protein p53 may help lead the way to a better understanding of breast cancers expressing ERβ.
This is the Coalition's 8th year of grant funding.
From 2003 to 2008 the Coalition awarded eight grants totaling more than $275,000. These grants, unusual for a not-for-profit "grassroots" organization, are a vital part of the Coalition's continuing efforts to eradicate breast cancer.
More Information
For more information about future grant opportunities, please email Alison Currie, Research Administrator: firstname.lastname@example.com
Shown left is a map of the area eligible to apply for a Coalition research grant.

Resolving franchising disputes
The Office of the Franchising Mediation Adviser (OFMA) provides a cost-effective dispute resolution scheme for franchisors and franchisees.
What happens if there is a dispute?
The Franchising Code states that parties should first try to resolve their dispute with each other.
If the parties can't agree on an outcome within three weeks, the Code provides for mediation, which involves an informal negotiation between the parties facilitated by an independent third party. Either party may refer a dispute to mediation.
Mediation is a cost-effective way to resolve franchising disputes without resorting to complex and costly legal action. Participants in mediation should be aware that mediators don't give legal advice or make decisions like a judge; they assist parties to come together and negotiate an outcome that is acceptable to both parties. Parties can agree to appoint a mediator or request that OFMA appoint a mediator. OFMA has trained mediators with commercial experience located across Australia.
OFMA also operates an early intervention dispute resolution service for the franchising sector. This service is free and enables a party to a dispute to informally raise their concerns with OFMA. OFMA will then contact the other party to the dispute to gauge their interest in settling the dispute quickly.
If the dispute relates to a franchisor's intention to terminate a franchise agreement due to a breach by the franchisee, the franchisee should still take immediate steps to remedy the breach even though there is a mediation taking place.
Participating at mediation
Once mediation is requested, it becomes mandatory for both parties to attend and to genuinely try to resolve the dispute. A party will be taken to be trying to resolve a dispute if they approach the matter in a reconciliatory manner, including by making clear what they are trying to achieve through mediation. The parties should clearly state their concerns, and what they would like to see happen.
What are the costs of mediation?
The costs of mediation include the cost of the mediator, room hire and any additional inputs (for example expert reports) that both parties agree are necessary to the conduct of the mediation. These costs are shared between the parties to a dispute, unless agreed otherwise.
In general, parties are also responsible for their own expenses to attend the mediation. If the parties can't agree on a location, the mediator will decide on a location that is central to both parties and the parties will pay their own travel costs.
Alternatives to mediation
Mediation is not always successful or appropriate for parties to a dispute. For example, mediation may not be appropriate if you require urgent relief. If you are unsure whether to proceed with mediation, consult your legal adviser.
The dispute resolution procedure in the Code does not affect a party's right to take legal action over a franchising dispute. If you are considering taking legal action against another party, you should first obtain legal advice.
Contact OFMA
See the OFMA website or call 1800 150 667 (free call within Australia) or (02) 9267 0167.

Children sue Malaysia Airlines 8 months after losing dad on missing MH370 plane
Two Malaysian children sued Malaysia Airlines and the government on Friday over the loss of their father on MH370 -- the first lawsuit of its kind.
Two Malaysian children sued Malaysia Airlines and the government on Friday over the loss of their father on MH370 -- the first lawsuit of its kind.
Four-legged friends helped close a cultural gap in Malaysia during a unique event that invited Muslims to pet dogs -- some for the very first time.
A woman claims she was sexually assaulted by a crew member on board a Malaysia Airlines flight.
Malaysia Airlines diverted one of its planes from Ukraine to another war zone: Syria.
A wooden boat carrying 97 Indonesian migrants capsized and sank after leaving Malaysia's west coast.
Malaysia Airlines told families of the missing passengers on Flight 370 to return to their homes and wait for updates from there, according to a statement the airline released on Thursday. While Malaysia Airlines is committed to continuing its support to the families during the whole process, we are adjusting the mode of services and support.
A Malaysian government official met with family members of passengers who were aboard Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 Sunday to discuss reparations.
An unmanned submarine called the Bluefin-21 is scheduled to finish searching the Indian Ocean seabed for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 within one week, according to multiple reports. Nearly a month and a half after the disappearance of Flight 370, rescue workers still haven't found the Boeing 777-200, which went missing during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, despite the Bluefin-21's efforts.
The multinational flotilla scouring the seas to the west of Perth, Australia for signs of the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 have not heard any electronic pings from the plane's cockpit voice or data recorders since April 8, suggesting the batteries on these devices may have run out, according to a new report. Manufactured by Honeywell, battery-operated acoustic beacons attached to the black boxes were designed to send out electronic signals for about 30 days after entering the water.
It's been one month since Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 dropped off radar screens. Here's everything we know about its mysterious disappearance.
An Australian navy ship in the Indian Ocean has detected signals that are consistent with those from an airplane's black box. Authorities say it is their "most promising" lead so far in the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370. The ship is towing a device called a pinger locator, which detected two signals on Monday. The first lasted two hours and 20 minutes, and the second lasted for 13 minutes.
Searchers scouring the waters of the Indian Ocean off Australia's west coast have not yet succeeded in locating the missing Malaysian Airlines Boeing 777-200, but they have focused global attention on just how many pieces of manmade detritus is floating in our oceans.
Malaysian authorities on Tuesday released the full transcript between the pilots of Malaysia Airlines flight 370 and air traffic control.
The search area rescuers are combing in the hunt for Malaysia Airlines flight 370 shifted several hundred miles on Friday to an area northeast of the original search corridor. Radar tracking information suggested that the jetliner flew faster and burned fuel more quickly than authorities originally thought.
A New Zealand military plane found objects floating in the Indian Ocean that could be from the missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370. Authorities say a ship will reach the search area by Saturday to investigate the objects and determine if they are, in fact, from the missing Boeing 777.
Malaysian authorities say satellite images showing a possible plane debris field of 122 objects in the Indian Ocean is "the most credible lead" they have in the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370. The objects -- ranging in length from about 3 feet to 75 feet -- are located 1,500 miles from Australia, near the same area where another set of satellite images from last week showed an 80-foot object floating in the water.
The Malaysia Star, one of the country's major news publications, ran a front page cover in tribute to the 239 people on board Malaysia Airlines flight 370, just one day after authorities declared that the jetliner plunged into the ocean. Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Rajak said in a press conference on Monday that flight 370 "ended" in the Indian Ocean, effectively squashing speculation that survivors could still be alive.
The families of those lost aboard Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 have joined together to issue a scathing statement accusing the Malaysian authorities of murder. "If the 154 passengers did lose their lives, Malaysia Airlines, the Malaysian government and military are the real executioners who killed them," the statement reads.
France is the latest country to provide satellite imagery of what could be possible debris from the missing Malaysia Airlines flight.
Search teams are headed to an area about 1,500 miles southwest of Perth to investigate two objects that may have come from Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.
Evidence suggests that Malaysian Airlines Flight 370, which disappeared from the skies almost two weeks ago after taking off in Kuala Lumpur carrying 239 passengers, may have been found by now if the company had upgraded an aircraft data-streaming system called Swift.
VANCOUVER, Canada -- Had Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared just a few weeks later, we may have been able to find it in a matter of hours. A company called Planet Labs is in the process of activating a squadron of tiny satellites that they released from the International Space Station last month. These compact satellites will orbit Earth, snapping images of nearly every inch of our planet.
The disappearance of Malaysia flight MH370 is an gripping, tragic mystery and, perhaps, a huge technology disappointment.
This story was updated on March 16 at 9:34 p.m. ET. Malaysian police searched the home on Saturday of the pilot of the missing jetliner that disappeared eight days ago, following the declaration by Prime Minister Najib Razak that the plane had been diverted in a "deliberate' act.
Authorities are still baffled nearly one week after Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 vanished about an hour after takeoff. A slew of seemingly solid leads have turned up nothing. Despite a widespread search involving several countries, we're still at square one -- no one knows where this plane is. Meanwhile, the fate of the 239 people on board MH370 is still unknown, and their families continue to wait for any clue as to their whereabouts.
UPDATE: March 13, 2014 at 5:46 p.m. ET -- The White House said the search for Flight 370 may expand to the Indian Ocean based on unspecified "new information" showing that the plane was still running four hours after it dropped from the radar, which is detailed in the story below. Malaysian officials are denying U.S. investigators' report that Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 remained in the air for about four hours after it lost contact.
UPDATE: March 13, 2014 at 7:24 a.m. ET: Authorities went to the site where these satellite images were taken and found no sign of Malaysia Airlines flight 370. Chinese State TV reports it has satellite images that may lead us to the missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370. The images are leading CNN's coverage of the hunt for Malaysia Airlines this evening. However, after days of false leads and conflicting reports, we can't help but be skeptical.
An oil rig worker off the southeastern coast of Vietnam claims to have witnessed the crash of the missing Malaysia Airlines plane. In a email sent to his employer, which was acquired, confirmed, and then shared by the ABC journalist Bob Woodruff, the man says, "I believe I saw the Malaysian Airlines plane come down.
This post was updated on March 11 at 9:30 p.m. ET Two men traveling with stolen passports on board Malaysia Airlines flight 370 have no links to terrorist networks, authorities confirmed Tuesday. Malaysian police chief Khalid Abu Bakar said 18-year-old Pouria Nour Mohammad Mehrdad, who is Iranian, was likely migrating to Germany. He was traveling with Delavar Seyed Mohammadreza, 29, according to Interpol.
The search is still on for the Malaysia Airlines flight 370, which mysteriously vanished somewhere en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 7. There were 239 people on board, and so far, all clues have led nowhere. Flight 370 was cruising around 35,000 feet when it dropped from radar with no signal from pilots, which is almost unheard of in the aviation world.
A Malaysia Airlines flight carrying 239 people from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing disappeared from radar systems on Friday -- and authorities still have no clue where it's gone. ''So far there's no report of any sightings,'' Datuk Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, director general of Malaysia's Department of Civil Aviation, said at a Sunday morning news conference in Kuala Lumpur on Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.
Malaysia Airlines lost contact with a commercial aircraft bound from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, China, the airline reported Saturday morning.
Lunar New Year celebrations begin on Jan. 31, and run for 15 days full of parades, candy and firecrackers to ward off demons. Also known as Spring Festival, 2014 is the Year of the Horse, which is supposed to be a lucky one. People born in the Year of the Horse will supposedly be talented, cheerful and popular.
