"People were screaming," said Henry Bishop of Oxford, England. A Sri Lankan couple said they were thrown to the ceiling when their seat belts failed. "We saw our own deaths," said Sam Samaratunga, who was traveling with his wife Rani to their son's wedding. "We decided to die together and embraced each...
...Reid to seat Franken provisionally no matter the outcome of the Minnesota Supreme Court's decision, a move that would likely provoke a GOP filibuster. Reid thus far has taken a wait-and-see approach, though his patience is wearing thin. "The time for do-overs is over," says Jim Manley, a Reid senior adviser. "Now is the time - now more than ever - for Norm Coleman and Washington Republicans to stop once and for all their ongoing effort to block President Obama's agenda...
