Chesley Sullenberger III, the pilot of US Airways A320 became famous overnight after he saved the lives of 155 passengers on board. He had to crash land the plane on Hudson River after both the engines failed to work soon after the takeoff. The passengers and crews were all safe and he himself before leaving the plane to safe zone made it sure that no one was left inside the plane.

The plane departed from the LaGuardia Airport and soon damaged both of its engines after colliding with a flock of birds around 3:30 in the afternoon.  As soon as the captain announced the emergency situation, everybody inside the plane panicked. They hid their heads behind their laps and started to pray. The captain had an option to emergency land at the nearby airport at Teterboro but ultimately he did not. He headed towards the Hudson River and finally the plane hit the water with a bang. An eyewitness said that everybody felt like going through a minor motor accident. Most of the passengers were hurled into the front seats.

Finally the rescue boat came and saved everyone on board. Nobody was seriously injured and Sullenberger became a real hero after saving 155 lives. Had he not acted in this manner, the result could have been more than worse.

St. Louis University has developed an adorable pooch called Sparky. According to the report of the Journal of The American Medical Directors Associations, dogs cure loneliness. A team from Stanford University is busy creating robot solely for purpose of home assistance. Aibo, a robotic dog developed by Sony has been in the market for some time. This new age robots will not only be your assistance but your partner.

The main war was between Sparky and Aibo. The research was conducted among residents from 38 different nursing homes. Aibo always has an edge over the other, courtesy Sony.

Sparky was reddish brown with white color and had floppy ears and was liked by many residents. He reacted efficiently to the commands and even wagged his tail. Most of the residents felt as if they are petting a real animal. On the other hand people took more time to adjust with Aibo but slowly they become comfortable. Aibo too wagged his tail like Sparky and even blinked his lights. It was an amazing attempt to mix the human and computer interaction. These robotic dogs were developed to reduce loneliness, but those who have developed these dogs have failed to do themselves.

Even Christmas Eve creates environmental problems. According to a research, food worth $5 billion is wasted during this occasion around the world. Tons of foods are wasted and they eventually rot.

As per AAP, Christmas waste is 20 times more harmful than the emission for a car. We do need to understand the ill effects of food waste that is resulting in the constant change of climates. A kilo of beef is equivalent to 50,000 liters of water. Leftovers of ham, chicken and turkey should be used afterwards in
sandwiches and other items. Vegetable leftovers can be used in soups too.

Christmas trees should only be put into the organic dust bins after use. The WSN Environmental Solutions is concerned about the problem. This facility has been offered especially to those who don’t have an organic bean. Even people who are old and physically disable can take the assistance of WSN to get rid of
the Christmas tree.

The liability to keep the environment clean lies on us only. The decoration should be properly removed once Christmas is over. Any kind of wastes should be disposed of with due care.
