...Flight International magazine. "It has the capacity to expand - but not if its terminals fall down. This is going to seriously curtail the rate at which Air France can expand if the whole terminal has to come down because they find a design fault." Brun is anxious to contain the crash's long-term damage. He promises that existing capacity will allow Air France to proceed with planned expansion. But even he admits that the situation could get worse: "If the findings were to show a fundamental design or construction failure, then we'd have to tear it down...
...semi-nude pictures it does contain are self-parodying, pointless or nothing edgy. A few articles and interviews address the ambiguous divide between art and porn, making the editors’ pronouncement “[H Bomb] isn’t porn, that’s for sure” seem painfully ironic and, by their own standards, simple-minded. Of course, it’s all part of the game—a full-page advertisement for Playboy (page 28) might signal something.

...Reagan and Bush Sr. and were not a top priority during the Clinton administration when oil prices were historically low.

In recent years, however, the U.S. and China have grown closer: the two countries have forged strong economic ties, and Beijing has supported Washington's war on terror and its efforts to contain North Korea. The U.S.'s deep involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan also means it is unwilling-and perhaps unable-to deal with any additional trouble over Taiwan. Hence, what Washington wants is for Chen to not rile China. "It is in nobody's interest to force the [Taiwan] question," says...
...line of anti-cellulite clothing by Miss Sixty includes jeans, pants and skirts that contain supposedly skin-firming microcapsules. The manufacturer claims the clothes, even after 40 washes, retain 40% of their cellulite-fighting effectiveness. The $139 pants sold out quickly after their February debut and are on their second run. The label concedes that the jeans are not guaranteed, but they at least look slimming. The downside: you should probably hand wash these items, which is a hassle...
