Corrections and Clarifications NEW YORK—A small plane carrying New York Yankee Cory Lidle slammed into a 50-story apartment building Wednesday after issuing a distress call, killing the pitcher and a second person in a crash that rained flaming debris onto the sidewalks and briefly raised fears of another terrorist attack. A law enforcement official in Washington said Lidle—an avid pilot who got his license during last year's offseason—was aboard the single-engine aircraft when it plowed into the 30th and 31st floors of the condominium high-rise on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said both people aboard were killed. Lidle's passport was found on the street, according to a federal official, speaking to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. It was not immediately clear who was at the controls and who was the second person aboard. There was no official confirmation of Lidle's death from city officials. Federal Aviation Administration records showed the plane was registered to Lidle, who had repeatedly assured reporters in recent weeks that flying was safe and that the Yankees—who were traumatized in 1979 when catcher Thurman Munson was killed in the crash of a plane he was pilot- Bush rejects idea of talks with North Korea WASHINGTON — . President Bush unapologetically defended his approach to North Korea's nuclear weapons program Wednesday, pledging he would not change course despite contentions that Pyongyang's apparent atomic test proved the failure of his nearly six years of effort. Bush rejected the idea of direct U.S.North Korea talks, saying the Koreans were more likely to listen if confronted with the combined protest of many nations. The president said he was not backing down from his assertion three years ago that "we will not tolerate nuclear weapons in North Korea." He said the United States "reserves all options to defend our friends and our interests in the region against the threats from North Korea," a stance he said includes increased defense cooperation, especially on missile defense, with Japan and South Korea. But he added: "I believe the commander in chief must try all diplomatic measures before we commit our military." The president appeared at a news conference in the White House's Rose Garden in an effort to rescue a diplomatic drive to contain North Korea and to rebut charges he had been distracted by the Iraq war from the developing threat in Asia. Debris falls from an apartment building on New York's Upper East Side after a small plane with New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle aboard crashed into it Wednesday. Army: Troops to stay in Iraq until 2010 WASHINGTON—For planning purposes, the Army is gearing up to keep current troop levels in Iraq for another four years, a new indication that conditions there are too unstable to foresee an end to the war. Gen. Peter Schoomaker, the Army chief of staff, cautioned against reading too much into the planning, which is done far in advance to prepare the right mix of combat units for expected deployments. He noted that it is easier to scale back later if conditions allow, than to ramp up if they don't.

There are now 141,000 U.S. troops there. At a Pentagon news conference, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, Gen.

The crash came just four days after the Yankees' embarrassingly quick elimination from the playoffs, during which Lidle had been relegated to the bullpen. In recent days, Lidle had taken abuse from fans on sports talk radio for saying the team was unprepared.

"The flying?" the 34-year-old Lidle, who had a home near Los Angeles, told The Philadelphia Inquirer this summer. "I'm not worried about it. I'm safe up there.

LOS ANGELES—The charge of treason was used for the first time in the United States' war on terrorism Wednesday, filed against a California man who appeared in propaganda videos for al-Q_aida. Adam Yehiye Gadahn, 28, could be sentenced to death if convicted of the charge, which has been used only a few dozen times in U.S. history and not at all since the World War II era. He also was indicted on a charge of providing material support to terrorists. Gadahn "knowingly adhered to an enemy of the United States, namely, al-Qaida, and gave al-Qaida aid and comfort... with intent to betray the United States," according to the indictment, handed up by an Orange County grand jury. The suspected al-Qaida operative has been sought by the FBI since 2004. Based on the indictment, the FBI added Gadahn to its list of most wanted terrorists and offered a $1 million reward for information leading to his arrest or conviction. .Gadahn, who is believed to be in or near Pakistan, is suspected of having attended the terrorist group's training camps in Pakistan and serving as one of its translators. les by Papjpocom In the Oct. 10 article, "Students celebrate Mid-Autumn festival despite rain," the legend of the moon festival information was taken from a publication by Thomas Chinn titled, "The Legend of the Moon Festival/' and was obtained from the Chinatown Merchants Association Web site, www.moonfestival.org.
