An Entrapment
My love, I have tried with all my being
to grasp a form comparable to thine own,
but nothing seems worthy;
I know now why Shakespeare could not
compare his love to a summer’s day.
It would be a crime to denounce the beauty
of such a creature as thee,
to simply cast away the precision
God had placed in forging you.
Each facet of your being
whether it physical or spiritual
is an ensnarement
from which there is no release.
But I do not wish release.
I wish to stay entrapped forever.
With you for all eternity.
Our hearts, always as one.

2009 Indonesia C-130H Hercules crash
2009 Indonesia C-130H Hercules crash
The 2009 Indonesia C-130H Hercules crash was an aircraft accident in Indonesia on May 20, 2009. The Indonesian Air Force C-130 Hercules airplane was carrying 112 people (98 passengers and 14 crew) and crashed at about 6:30 local time (23:30 UTC), while flying from Jakarta to eastern Java.[1]. The crash resulted in at least 98 deaths, 5 of which occurred on impact when the plane ploughed through a neighborhood, striking at least four houses before skidding into a paddy, in the village of Geplak. Two people on the ground were killed.[2] [3] At least 70 others had been taken to a local hospital.[4] Authorities believe that there is still 1 missing body.
The airplane (a civilian Lockheed L-100-30(P) Hercules, registration A-1325[5]) had been on a normal flight transporting military personnel and their families from Jakarta to a military base in eastern Java. The plane was attempting to land at Iswahyudi Air Force Base, but instead crashed about 5.5 kilometres (3.4 mi) northwest of the north end of the runway,[6] bursting into flames upon impact. The exact number of casualties is uncertain. Flying conditions were good and the weather was clear at the time of the crash.[7]
So, what do you think about this news? Do you think this accident happen because of the age old of plane or human error? Give me your comment about it. Ok!
