How's this, just in, a great start, it's only just got there!


JAPANESE whalers have rammed one of the Sea Shepherd's protest vessels in the Southern Ocean, cutting it in half.
The Ady Gil was shadowing Japanese ship the Shonan Maru when it suddenly started its engines and hit the Sea Shepherd vessel.
Paul Watson, the captain of Sea Shepherd flagship the MV Steve Irwin, said the $2 million Ady Gil was paralysed and probably unsalvagable.
"It cut eight feet off the front of the vessel. There is a big gaping hole, so it can't go anywhere or it would fill up with water," he said.
