ON one side are the Barossa Valley's wine barons and gourmets - on the other, the golden arches of McDonald's.

At stake is the image of Australia's most famous wine and food region, South Australia's Sunday Mail reports.

Plans by fast-food giant McDonald's to open a restaurant in Nuriootpa have upset some of the Barossa's most high-profile food and wine identities, including celebrity cook and food manufacturer Maggie Beer and wine legend Margaret Lehmann.

UK prison guards unwittingly allowed a convicted drug dealer to grow marijuana in his cell - and even decorate a four-foot plant as a Christmas tree.

Gold-toothed Mohamed Jalloh, 28, convinced jail staff for at least five months that his super-powerful crop was only tomato plants.

He got so cocky he put festive decorations on one to brighten up his cell at Verne Prison in Portland, Dorset in southern England. Eventually he was turned in by a jealous inmate, and guards then identified the plants using Google image search.

"You could see the plants from the grounds as his cell looks on to the education department and communal outside area,” a source told The Sun.

KEY WEST, Fla. — A group of Florida Keys women are going nude for the environment.

Not the typical youths who flash breasts during island celebrations. The models for the 2010 "Women Sustaining the Earth" calendar are 44 to 78 years old.

Organizer Erika Biddle got the idea from the movie "Calendar Girls," based on the true story of British women who did the same thing.

MONTREAL — A Montreal researcher's study of the impact of pornography on men is making headlines around the world.
Here's how two British papers described it:
"Porn-loving men ruin sex study," said The Sun.
"All men watch porn, scientists find," said The Telegraph.
When Universite de Montreal assistant professor Simon Louis Lajeunesse launched his project with men in their 20s, he wanted to interview subjects who had never been exposed to pornography — porn virgins.
But he couldn't find any.

Things are getting hot and heavy in Copenhagen ahead of the city's massive climate change conference.

The city's mayor warned hotels against patronizing Danish prostitutes during the upcoming U.N. summit — but the Copenhagen hookers are reportedly striking back by offering free sex to anyone who ignores the warnings.
