(END SOT) A powerful aftershock rocked central
China on Friday. It caused new
landslides and made it even more
difficult to help tens of thousands in
desperate need of food, water, and
shelter.
(Natz)
International aid is arriving, but many
stunned victims just wander aimlessly
waiting for someone to tell them what
to do and where to go. Most of the
buildings still standing are unsafe to
enter and tents are not yet available
in many hard hit areas.

Chinese authorities are also racing to
bury thousands of dead� before bodies
decay and bacteria is spread. Mass
graves are being dug and quickly
filled. About 14,000 people are still
missing in Sichuan Province alone.
(Celia Hatton Bridge/Hawing, China)
Officials are warning that everybody in
the cleanup zone needs to wear a face
mask. They are worried about the dust
and chemicals that can be released into
the air. however these face masks are
just simple pieces of gauze attached
with string and its unclear how much
good they'd really be able to do.
(natz rescue)
Even four days after the quake
hit�.there are still scattered reports
of survivors being pulled from the
rubble. When this boy was saved, he
asked his Uncle for a coke.
But with each passing
minute�mini-miracles are less likely.
Soon all the emphasis will be on
recovery, cleanup and rebuilding�a
challenge the people and the government
will be facing for months and years to

Pilot Yves Rossy has spent years
developing his 8-foot- long wings that
are powered by four jet turbines.
There were gasps and cheers from a
crowd, as Rossy stepped from a plane at
7,500 feet.
After gliding for a while, he fired
up the four engines and flew.
Rossy spent five minutes performing
tricks, which he says were meant "to
impress the girls."
He landed at a nearby airport.
Rossy says his next goal is to use
jet wings to fly across the English
Channel later this year.
