1960 saw the introduction of the new Boeing 707-320 intercontinental jet for long-haul trans-Atlantic flights to New York. SABENA was mainland Europe's first airline to operate a jet across the Atlantic (BOAC - now British Airways - had been flying jet transatlantic services using the De Havilland Comet 4 since 4 October 1958). Tragically, one of SABENA's aircraft became the first Boeing 707 to crash while in commercial service. SABENA Flight 548 went down in flames while preparing to land at Brussels on February 15, 1961. The United States Figure Skating Team was aboard the jet, en route from New York to Prague via Brussels to compete in a figure skating championship.

Maarten Troost visits Google's Mountain View, CA headquarters to discuss his book "Lost on Planet China: The Strange and True Story of One Man's Attempt to Understand the World's Most Mystifying Nation, or How He Became Comfortable Eating Live Squid." This event took place on July 16, 2008, as part of the Authors@Google series. Lost on Planet China finds Troost dodging deadly drivers in Shanghai; eating Yak in Tibet; deciphering restaurant menus (offering local favorites such as Cattle Penis with Garlic); visiting with Chairman Mao (still dead, very orange); and hiking (with 80,000 other people) up Tai Shan, China's most revered mountain. But in addition to his trademark gonzo adventures, the book also delivers a telling look at a vast and complex country on the brink of transformation that will soon shape the way we all work, live, and think. As Troost shows, while we may be familiar with Yao Ming or dim sum or the cheap, plastic products that line the shelves of every store, the real China remains a world—indeed, a planet--unto itself. Maarten Troost brings China to life as you've never seen it before, and his insightful, rip-roaringly funny narrative proves that once again he is one of the most entertaining and insightful armchair travel companions around. J. MAARTEN TROOST is the author of Getting Stoned with Savages and The Sex Lives of Cannibals. His essays have appeared in the Atlantic Monthly, the Washington Post, and the Prague Post. He spent two years in Kiribati in the Equatorial Pacific and upon his return was hired as a consultant by the World Bank. After several years in Fiji and Vanuatu, he recently relocated to the U.S. and now lives with his wife and two sons in California.

Hello on this Wednesday, May 30, 2007. I'm Kristin Volk with a UPI Headline Update. U.S. authorities are searching for people who may have been exposed to a potentially fatal form of tuberculosis on a plane. An infected passenger took two trans-Atlantic flights this month and could have passed the rare, drug-resistant form of the disease onto others around him. The man departed Atlanta, Georgia on May 12 aboard Air France flight 385 and arrived in Paris the next day. He returned to North America last Thursday on Czech Air Flight 0104 from Prague to Montreal. Five terror suspects are being detained in Baghdad's Sadr City. All are believed to be members of a cell involved in weapons trafficking. The U.S. military says the cell leader was targeted for transporting weapons and bringing militants from Iran to Iraq for terrorist training. Iran has denied U.S. allegations that it's providing weapons or training to Iraqi insurgents. The U.S. military has turned over three northern Iraq provinces to Iraqis. The provinces, which are predominately Kurdish, are relatively peaceful compared to the sectarian violence further south. There are now seven of Iraq's 18 provinces under domestic control, although U.S. forces have not entirely withdrawn from any of them. The U.S. military says the goal is to have all provinces under Iraqi control by this fall. The pharmaceutical company Pfizer is facing criminal charges in Nigeria. Eleven years ago, authorities say the company gave a non-approved antibiotic to children during a meningitis epidemic without parents' consent. They say the company's actions left some children dead and others disabled. Pfizer claims it did nothing wrong and that Nigerian officials knew about the clinical trial.
