"OCEAN CITY, Md (Reuters) - After four decades carrying millions of New Yorkers, 44 of the city's subway cars are now home to millions of fish.

The worn-out cars were dumped on Friday into the Atlantic Ocean, 21 miles off the Maryland coast, to create an artificial reef, designed to attract fish for the state's lucrative sport-fishing industry.

"These reefs provide quality habitat for marine life off our coast which benefits not only the environment but also local businesses," said Ocean City Mayor Rick Meehan."

"Two executives of defence company BAE Systems have been briefly detained when they landed in the US on business."

"BAE, which denies any wrong-doing, said US officials served "a number of additional subpoenas" on employees."

"The US Department of Justice (DoJ) said in June 2007 that it was launching a probe to see if BAE's business deals "concerning the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia" complied with anti-corruption laws.

It is believed the DoJ became interested because BAE used the US banking system to transfer regular payments to accounts controlled by Prince Bandar at Riggs Bank in Washington. "

AUSTRALIA'S literature classification has given the green light for photographers to take pictures of naked under-age models after backing down on an investigation into a fashion magazine.

Last week, the Classification Board said it was investigating Russh Australia for featuring a 16-year-old girl topless in two different fashion shoots.

Zippora Seven featured in the provocative 18-page editorial fashion spread alongside a 15-year-old model, Levi Clarke.

Russh justified the pictures from 45-year-old Sydney photographer Derek Henderson by using Chanel No.5 bath gel in the most revealing image.

After deliberating, Classification Board director Donald McDonald said: "The board has now considered the matter and is of the view that this publication is not a submittable publication and therefore does not need to be classified."

The most provocative of the images was shot at Sydney's Sebel Pier One Hotel in March, gratuitously depicting the pair sharing a bubble bath nude, with Seven topless and Clarke's eyes closed as if he has passed out. In the foreground are four bottles of Moet & Chandon champagne.

Shipping a car and using air plane which produce more co2?
Did Toyota used the air plane ONLY FOR him or there are something else? (In that case, using air plane to ship the car isn't that...big deal because the air plane is going to be used anyway for something else.)
So he doesn't use air plane for his tour anymore?

The suit can multiply its wearer's strength and endurance as many as 20 times, with relatively little loss of agility, by sensing and almost instantly amplifying every movement the wearer makes." [yahoo photos]

"Plane lands on top of another in Texas crash

"No-one was injured in the accident at Northwest Regional airport in Roanoke, Texas on Friday, although both planes were badly damaged.

Reports suggest that the pilots of the aircraft were neighbours and had been talking on the radio just before the crash.

It appears they were both under the impression the other would give way before the planes dramatically collided on the runway."
