...cold, dry Riesling and a couple of plastic cups from the on-site wine shop before finding a picnic table on the dockside. The best part? This exquisite feast should come in for less than $30 a head. PIER: You want fresh? You got it. Fish at this Rose Bay restaurant, tel: (61-2) 9327 6561, are killed by the Japanese practice of ike jime (or driving a point through a fish's brain to kill it instantaneously, minimizing stress to the creature and so optimizing the flavor of its flesh).

Braving temperatures as low as 40°F below zero, cleanup crews have contained the spill and are trucking in fresh snow to absorb whatever oil can't be vacuumed up. BP hopes to recover 90% of the lost crude, which it will funnel back into the pipeline and pump to the port of Valdez for sale on the open market...
