Two detained at Abu Dhabi airport
Two men were taken into custody by onboard security officers Sunday when they announced they had a bomb on a Royal Jordanian Airlines flight heading to Abu Dhabi from Amman, airline and airport officials told CNN. A subsequent search of the two men -- whom officials described as Libyan nationals -- found no bomb, officials said. The suspects, one of whom is in his 20s and one who's in his 30s, had told a flight attendant they were going to blow up the plane, the officials reported. There were 152 passengers on the plane, 12 crew members and four security officers.

One Man's Info War on al-Qaida
The domains, jehad.net and jehadonline.org, are now in the control of a manager for a large Minnesota financial services firm.
But some said the Minnesota man's actions, like those of other patriotic hackers, could hinder rather than help the U.S. government's war on terrorism.
"This guy might think he's being a hero, but in fact he's an idiot," said an official with DV2, the Atlanta ISP that hosts the sites. "The FBI has been closely watching these sites, and by taking the law into his own hands he may have screwed that up."

First reactions to Thailand's giant new opium museum in the Golden Triangle are confused: pleasant surprise at cool air after the intense tropical heat, but then disorientation, shock, even fear. Visitors enter the 40-hectare complex through a long, dark, mist-filled tunnel, which winds into the base of a hill past bas-reliefs of distorted human figures before emerging suddenly into bright sunlight in front of a field of poppies.
