Fighter jets escort Seattle-bound flight in hijack scare - U.S. News

By Kari Huus, Staff writer, NBC News

A Seattle-bound flight from Hawaii landed safely, and on time, Thursday night after U.S. military jets were ordered to escort it because of hijacking concerns, NBC has learned.?

FBI sources say the Honolulu field office of the bureau received a call, from the ground, stating that an individual aboard the flight was going to hijack the plane.


The North American Aerospace Defense Command, NORAD, called in fighter jets from the Oregon National Guard which flew alongside Alaska Air flight 819 from Kona until it landed at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport at about 7 p.m. (10 p.m. ET).

FBI agents met the plane when it landed in Seattle, and the individual was taken off the plane without incident, according to NBC-affiliate in Seattle, KING 5.

One individual is in FBI custody at this hour being questioned by agents, the report said.

According to Alaska Airlines officials, that individual slept through most of the flight, nothing out of the ordinary happened onboard and the crew did not perceive any danger.

The FBI says there is also no danger at the Seattle airport.

Facebook borrows from itself, adds voice messages to main app

Facebook for Android

A couple weeks after adding the feature to the Facebook Messenger app, voice messages are now a part of the main Facebook application. These aren't going to replace phone calls anytime soon -- and they're not really supposed to -- but they can be a fun little way to drop someone a note on Facebook, or to send voice messages when cellular calls aren't practical or available.

Perhaps even more surprising is that Facebook actually updated its changelog on the app with this latest version. Along with voice messaging, you should be able to open and view images a little faster, and share your friends stories to timelines, pages and groups.

Staten Island church volunteers to assess needs in Sandy-damaged neighborhoods

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- More than 200 church volunteers organized by the Staten Island Interfaith Disaster Response Network will hit the streets this Saturday to conduct house-to-house surveys in areas affected by Hurricane Sandy.

In addition to assisting with immediate needs, Island non-profits are positioning themselves to take over most of the long-term relief efforts as FEMA, the city and other government agencies play lesser roles during the estimated seven to 10 years that it will take for many Sandy victims to rebuild their homes and lives.

The survey of an estimated 700 to 1,000 people is intended to help the non-profits obtain government and other funds and services to help those in need.

The volunteers -- including those who speak Spanish and Russian -- will assess the needs of people in South Beach, Midland Beach, New Dorp Beach, Cedar Grove Beach, Oakwood Beach, Fox Beach, Great Kills, Tottenville and selected areas of Port Richmond, St. George and Mariners Harbor. The Church of Christ will coordinate the volunteers.

The results of the confidential surveys will be shared with Island, city, state and federal officials in the hopes of impacting potential government resource allocations to the Island, said the Rev. Terry Troia, executive director of Project Hospitality.

"This is a snapshot three months after the hurricane," Rev. Troia said of the surveys.

The network hopes that the surveys will shed light on key issues such as how many houses and rental units have been lost, how many people are still living in their houses, how many people are waiting for government assistance and who is elderly, disabled or otherwise at risk.

The surveys will include questions about crucial concerns such as housing issues, financial assistance and needs, chronic medical conditions, mental health concerns, medical insurance, legal problems, family composition, demographics and special needs.

The survey was developed over the last month by those working in the trenches -- volunteers from Sandy-affected families, houses of worship and local disaster organizations.

The volunteers, who will carry identification, will conduct the surveys in teams from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. starting from their staging area at 1128 Olympia Blvd. The surveyors will speak to residents on their doorsteps and will not enter any homes.

Residents who are unable to complete the survey on Saturday may call 718-448-1544, ext.166, to be scheduled for a phone survey. The group also is looking into other methods of obtaining survey information from Staten Island Sandy victims who aren't in their homes on Saturday.

The network is a coalition of over 50 houses of worship and disaster relief organizations and centers, that will next meet on Wednesday from noon to 2 p.m. at the Unitarian Church of Staten Island in New Brighton.
