...when you see it." If Britain's dodgy railroad tracks were only up to the task, the train could hit 225 km/h. Even as it is, it should cut the trip between London and Manchester to two hours, down from two hours and 40 minutes, when it joins the fleet in 2002, Whitehorn says. But the train has one other, perhaps more urgent, mission: to take some of the tarnish off the aging Virgin brand...

Although the public of both Japan and the U.S. were surprised at the presence of civilians on the Greeneville, the Navy routinely invites dignitaries aboard its vessels to bolster public support for its missions.

Americans make up 5% of the world's population but gobble up 25% of global energy. So cutting back on domestic oil consumption offers far greater potential savings than drilling in ANWR. An obvious step: boosting the fuel efficiency of America's truck and auto fleet. The NRDC claims that more than three times the amount of ANWR's petroleum could be saved if American fuel economy was raised to an average of 39 m.p.g. from current levels of 20.7 m.p.g. Efficiencies generated by a simple upgrade of the replacement tires installed on U.S. vehicles could save nearly 5.5 billion...
