Coast Guard helicopter lowers a salvage crew member onto the capsize car carrier Cougar Ace, Monday, July 31, 2006, off of the coast the Aleutian Islands, in Alaska, as the disabled ship continued its movement to the north toward the Bering Sea. Salvage team members continue work to prepare to shift the liquid load of water to right the ship. The 654-foot car carrier, homeported in Singapore, and carrying over 5,000 cars, turned on it side on July 23, 2006. (AP Photo/Charles Homans)
