Very confusing. UB40 has a typically excellent new album out, titled simply UB40, but Red Red Wine is on another, older album, Labour of Love, which is giving the newer record stiff sales competition. There was some thought among the eight band members that their record company, A&M, should have backed their recent work more strongly. "It all seems a bit strange to us," says lead guitarist Robin Campbell. "But we can't be choosy. Any hit record is a hit record. For us, it's kind of a vindication...

Since January, Basler has filled orders for four jet-style DC-3s from air-freight companies. Demand has been...
...surge of civic pride as they drive across the new $244 million, 4.1-mile Sunshine Skyway Bridge, the centerpiece of a 13- mile causeway connecting the tip of St. Petersburg's peninsula to the mainland. The span replaces a pair of cantilevered bridges, built in 1954 and 1971. The newer of the two collapsed in 1980, killing 35 people, when it was hit by a freighter during a blinding rainstorm. After the accident, more than 20,000 vehicles a day crowded onto the single remaining two-lane span. Government officials could have repaired the damaged structure for about $30 million...
