Hi Kathy, my father's people came from Rathmore just on the Cork/Kerry border. I wonder if we are talking about the same people? They were that close to the border that some of my dad's brothers would support Cork in gaelic football while others supported Kerry... good friendly banter when both teams would meet in Munster finals. All 5 brothers have passed away now. My Uncle Philip was the last to pass in Sept 2011. There were also 2 sisters and they are still with us, Han (Hannah) and Norrie (Nora). My email address is firstname.lastname@example.com if you want to contact me re all of this.

Do Saline breast implants feel heavy?
I'm seriously thinking about getting saline breast implants, filled to around 390 cc. But i'm worried that they will feel heavy and/or hurt my shoulders and upper back. Does anyone have any input on this?
What is your height and weight?
Current breast size and desired breast size?
Small, medium, or large frame?
Unless you go abolsutely huge, they should not be heavy. You will be very aware of them following surgery, regardless of size.
mine feel normal, actually, and i have 550! they are moderate profile saline filled. I say go for it, girl. I am happy i got mine done...you should try my doc. i have heard of that too tho, some girls say its a hassle when they go toooo big and they feel heavy. Private message me if you wanna talk more...
I think saline implants are a great option! I've been seeing a great offer around that offers Saline Breast Implants for $2800. Seems great I did some googling and found out the place has pretty good doctors least there well known!
Well i hope this helps some technical stuff:
Saline: Saline-filled breast implants are silicone shells filled with saline (a saltwater solution) that is very similar to the body's natural fluid which makes up most of the human body. These implants are filled to the desired size during your surgery.
Slicone: Silicone breast implants are pre-filled with a cohesive silicone gel.
so if you're doing saline, your doctor could have the option to change your size, which might be a good idea since they'll be able to see it live
My implants are saline. I've had them for almost a year and no problems so far. I can't remember how many CC's they used, but before I was a 32A and afterwards I was a 34C (in VS Pink bras). Some of the worst pain after surgery, for me, was back pain. Yes, for the first few weeks they do feel heavy. but, you do get used to them! they never bother anymore and they don't cause me any back pain whatsoever. I have a small frame, and they do NOT look too big on me. My boobs grew by themselves a few months after surgery too and now I'm a 34D. Implants look smaller than natural breasts. Hope this helps :)

Dugard Memoir Released, Tops Bestsellers Lists
Details of Jaycee Dugard's 18 years in captivity are now available for everyone to read or listen to.
"A Stolen Life", Dugard's memoir, was released Tuesday at bookstores and online retailers. Excerpts were released last week in an issue of People magazine which featured new photos of the now 31-year-old woman.
She also spoke with Diane Sawyer Sunday night, previewing the kind of details she reveals in her memoir. Including what it was like to give birth in the backyard of Phillip Garrido's home when she was just 14 years old. She said she didn't know she was pregnant, and didn't know she was in labor. Garrido only allowed her to watch certain tv shows and read certain books while she was held captive.
The book's publisher, Simon & Schuster, told FOX40 Dugard wrote "A Stolen Life" all on her own and did not use a ghost writer. She also voiced the audio version of the book.
Dugard was kidnapped from her South Lake Tahoe street in 1991 when she was just 11 years old. She was held captive as a sex slave just a few hours away in Antioch, at the home of Phillip and Nancy Garrido.
Phillip Garrido was in and out of jail and on probation during the nearly two-decades long ordeal, however Dugard was not discovered until August 2009. She was found living in a tent structure in the backyard with her two daughters, fathered by Garrido.
Phillip and Nancy pleaded guilty to kidnapping and assault charges earlier this year. Phillip was sentenced to 431 years, Nancy was sentenced to 36 years in prison.
Dugard did not address the court during the trial proceedings, and did not take the stand. There has been a lot of interest in her story of survival and pre-orders of her memoir put "A Stolen Life" on the top of Amazon.com's bestsellers list even before it was released.
The cover of "A Stolen Life" includes details about Dugard's new life since being held captive. The title is a reference to her feelings toward her captors, she told the Garrido's in a written statement that they had stolen her life. The pine cone below her name on the book's cover represents the last thing she touched before her abduction. After the Garrido's used a stun gun to immobilize a young Dugard, she remembered feeling a pine cone on the ground before she was driven away and locked up.
Some of the proceeds from "A Stolen Life" will go to the JAYC Foundation, Inc. The organization provides support and services to families recovering from an abduction or the aftermath of other traumatic experiences.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AP) — A police official says unknown gunmen have ambushed a van of teachers in northwest Pakistan and killed six female teachers and one man in the vehicle.
The police chief in the town of Swabi, Abdur Rasheed, says the van was carrying teachers working for a non-governmental organization who were on their way to a community center. Gunmen attacked the vehicle on the outskirts of Swabi on Tuesday.
Rasheed did not identify the name of the organization.
Many militants in the conservative Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province where the attack took place oppose female education and have attacked female students and blown up their schools.
No group has claimed responsibility for the attack.

The Film and Lecture Series is designed to provide students and members of the community with the opportunity to engage in topics of social interest and relevance through the screening of thoughtful movies and by bringing speakers to the campus who have demonstrated knowledge on topics deemed to be of social significance. Each film will be followed by a discussion with guest speakers or panelists.
Former leaders of Shin Bet—an Israeli security agency tasked with gathering intelligence for counter-terrorism operations—are interviewed in this revealing documentary that offers an inside perspective on significant decisions Israel has made in its conflict with the Palestinians.
In an effort to raise awareness about the widening income gap in America, former U.S. Labor Secretary Robert Reich directs attention to important questions about economic inequality: why it exists, what effects it can have, and why we should care about it.
Documented follows the life of Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jose Antonio Vargas, an immigration-reform activist who outed himself as an undocumented immigrant in a 2011 New York Times article. In the film, Vargas shares moving examples from his own life and family history to illustrate his view that our immigration system needs to be changed.
This film showcases the work of Father Gregory Boyle (aka "G-Dog"), the founder of Homeboy Industries, which has helped to redirect the lives of thousands of gang members in Los Angeles by offering them a second chance and by operating on the premise that "nothing stops a bullet like a job."
In The House I Live In, writer and director Eugene Jarecki contends that racial, political, and economic motives have shaped America's drug policies and that the War on Drugs is a misguided battle that hurts our communities more than helps them.
The Crash Reel follows U.S. champion snowboarder Kevin Pearce during an unforgettable chapter in his life. A tragic accident occurs, and the film becomes focused on a critical issue in today's sports: traumatic brain injury.
WHERE: Forum Building Room 110 (located on MJC's East Campus)
WHEN: THURSDAY EVENINGS at 7 PM to 9 PM
COST: FREE - The films are free and open to the public

Pizza East Portobello
At the twin pizzerias opened by the perennially chic Soho House, diners eat delicious wood-fired, puffy-crusted pies topped with combinations like veal meatballs, prosciutto, cream, and sage. For non-pizza fanatics, the restaurant offers hearty dishes like meaty lasagna and creamy macaroni and cheese (also cooked in the restaurant's wood-fired oven). With its large windows, white-tiled walls, and a sidewalk patio shaded by an awning of blue-and-white stripes, Pizza East Portobello is sunnier and airier than the Shoreditch original.

The part fit perfectly once the exhaust was removed. We cut the exhaust rather than mess with the old welded bolts on the coupler. After installation we took to a shop to have the cut welded shut. Used hose clamps and a piece of brass sheet to hold it together to get to the shop.

Timpani Schnellar Series Timpani
Adams introduces the Schnellar Series timpani, the world famous sound of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in Amsterdam – a sound now available to the rest of the world for the very first time. These new timpani were painstakingly developed based on the original Schnellar timpani the Concertgebouw Orchestra used for decades, while utilizing modern Adams innovations to optimize the power and complexity of these magnificent instruments.
A unique base with only three legs was developed to enhance the tonal character of a unique tuning system, in which the tension rods and head stay stationary, while the bowl itself moves vertically to change pitch. Special calf heads feature a claw tension system, eliminating the counterhoop, which helps produce the pure tones of the pointed, hammered copper shells. Adams Schnellar timpani are available in 20", 23", 25", 26", 28", 29" and 32" sizes.
Schnellar timpani are also available in "Kurbel " or Hand Crank versions without pedal mechanisms by Special Order.
Adams Schnellar Timpani are available in the US and Canada by Special Order Only. Contact a Pearl / Adams Authorized Dealer for more information.

Tough as nails......
By: Oilchecker
I find myself doing home improvements on the weekends. I needed a comfortable pair of pants for the job. I came across these pants and thought I'd give them a try. They are super thick and quite heavy but very comfortable. I can climb ladders, stretch, squat and crawl under the house with ease. They do run small so buy a size up. They are obviously loaded with pockets. With so many pockets it is easy to carry screws, nails and tools for the job. The knees are reinforced and have pockets for knee pads. Given the build quality I expect these pants will last a long time..

Dear White People Doesn't Have the Answers

Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink. Why? Because it's thick with sludge. Moving briskly through a stranger-than-fiction, serpentine narrative that is still unfolding, Joe Berlinger's remarkable documentary Crude recounts an infuriating litany of South American exploitation, back-room glad-handing and bureaucratic dead ends that has, among other collateral damages, created a Rhode Island-sized "death zone" of toxic pollution in the middle of the Ecuadorian Amazon. For nearly thirty years, beginning in the mid-1960s, the former Texaco oil company (acquired by Chevron in 2001) drilled for oil in Ecuador, in and around the ancestral homeland of the indigenous Cofán Indian community. In 1992, Texaco finally lost its government-granted concession and was forced to cede control of its drilling sites to state-owned Petroecuador. Three years later, Texaco conducted a purported "environmental remediation" as part of a $40 million settlement with the Ecuadorian government that, in turn, indemnified the company against any further government claims. And yet today the soil and waters of the area still run black with oil, the Cofán are dying of cancer at an alarming rate, and the buck for this enviro-disaster is being passed between Chevron and Petroecuador faster than a Bobby Hull slap shot. A master of true-crime verité, Berlinger (Brother's Keeper, Paradise Lost) does a superb job of taking us through the twists and turns of the decade-and-a-half, multibillion-dollar class-action lawsuit filed by the Cofán against Chevron — a legal battle nearly as long as the Amazon itself, and with no discernible end in sight. Crude runs October 16 through 22 at the Landmark Mayan Theatre.

In the booksEdit
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Prince Baelor was the eldest son of King Daeron the Good and Queen Myriah, and named after Baelor I. He had the dark hair of his mother, Queen Myriah, which he kept it cut short and kept his jaw clean-shaven. His nose had been broken twice. He was known as "Baelor Breakspear" and was the father of Princes Valarr and Matarys Targaryen.
When the Blackfyre Rebellion was in its early stages, Prince Baelor advocated leniency toward Daemon Blackfyre, a position that was rejected in favor of his uncle Brynden Rivers' hard line. Nonetheless, Baelor accepted the path towards war and distinguished himself by leading the Dornish-Stormlands force which attacked the rearguard of the rebel army during the Battle of Redgrass Field, smashing them against the shield-wall of his brother, Prince Maekar, and inspiring the song The Hammer and Anvil. After the battle, he was named Hand of the King by his father. At some point he was also given the title of Protector of the Realm.
While participating in a rare seven versus seven man variant of a Trial by combat, Baelor's younger brother Maekar accidentally gave Baelor a mortal injury. When he died his son Valarr became heir-apparent to the Iron Throne, but he and his younger brother Matarys both died during Great Spring Sickness only hours before Daeron II. This lead Daeron II to be succeeded by his second son, Aerys I.

Hanson, Cohen and me on race and crime
By A. Peter Bailey
Trice Edney Newswire
Apparently columnists Victor Davis Hanson, writing in the conservative magazine, National Review and Richard Cohen, writing in the supposedly progressive newspaper, The Washington Post, share similar reactions to the racial issues inflamed by the brutal killing of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin by white vigilante George Zimmerman.
Cohen said he "doesn't know whether Zimmerman is a racist." Hanson warns his progeny to avoid any contact with young Black males at any time. Their position is that young Black males are the most dangerous domestic force to be found in this country. This being the case, whites have every right to be fearful upon seeing any young Black male or males in the public streets of American cities and neighborhoods.
I have three basic responses to their commentary.
The first is that young Black male criminals are quintessential Americans with their me, myself and I and you are what amount of money you have in your pockets attitudes. They are products of American culture, not Black culture. And like most white Americans, they are well aware that messing with a Black person in this country will result in much less concern and punishment by the legal system than messing with a white person.
That's why I am much more likely to be a victim of a young Black male criminal than Hanson or Cohen. It's also the main reason that the overwhelming majority of killings by low-income young Black males are of other low-income Black males with whom, more often than not, they have some acquaintance. They are basically allowed to kill each other with impunity.
A second point ignored by the Hansons and Cohens of the world and their Black-white supremacist allies is that they aren't the only ones who are fearful when walking down the public streets in certain neighborhoods.
And, yes, there is such a thing as a Black-white supremacist. Check out anything written by Shelby Steele, a senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover institute, and anything said by Allan West, a former congressman from Florida.
As for me, there isn't a mostly white neighborhood in the nation in which I would walk down a public street alone. Even if wearing a $1,000 suit. And if by some chance I had to do so with someone else, I would immediately go on the alert if a group of young white males were walking toward us.
There are public bars throughout the country, even in urban areas, in which white male patrons react with hostility if a Black man enters, even if that Black man is dressed like a Wall Street banker.
Finally, since Hanson and Cohen and many of their white brethren insist on judging all young Black males in particular and all Black males in general by the actions of young Black male criminals, I am compelled to judge them by the reality that nearly all of the most violent sexual psychopathic killers and mass murderers are white males. Men from a group of people who produce such vicious killers so frequently are in no position to give self-serving moral lectures to others.

For Drupal 8, we want to bake REST support directly into the core system. It's unclear if we'll be able to go full-on hypermedia by the time we ship, but it should be possible to add via contributed modules. For the base system, though, we want to at least follow REST/HTTP semantics properly.
One area we have questions about is PUT, in particular the details of its idempotence requirements. For that reason, I'm reaching out to the Interwebs to see what the consensus is. Details below.
Last week I was at DIG London, in London, Ontario. It's normally a gaming conference, but they've added a web track and asked me to come speak. It was a fairly good experience, helped in part by their keynote, the infamous Jeffrey Zeldman talking about responsive design and related topics.
One of the points Zeldman made was that users want content their way, not the way we (web designers, web authors, and web devleopers) want it. Visually impared users want content read to them, or resized. Color blind users want a different color scheme that they can actually read. Smartphone users want content in a narrow column, without a dozen sidebar blocks. Mobile users want content offline, so they can read it on a plane. Many users want just the content, no design, and so use tools like Instapaper to strip out everything but the text of an article. RSS feeds have been around for a decade, and are now growing rapidly thanks to mobile devices, and those are generally (mostly) layout-free. If you're doing responsive design, then you're not making a design but the framework of a design that will change, and possibly mostly disappear, under certain circumstances.
Of course, that to me begs a very important question. When I asked it during Q&A, even Zeldman didn't have an answer. (Yes, I stumped the King of Web Standards. Woohoo!)
In the modern web, does web design even matter?
I've spoken a great deal recently about architectural priorities. In short, we as software developers cannot eat our cake and have it too. Improving flexibility in one area may hurt performance, while improving usability one another area may hinder flexibility. These trade-offs are not necessarily right or wrong, except in the context of the goals and purpose of the project with respect to its target audience.
But what is Drupal's target audience, and how does that impact our architectural decisions?
DrupalCon Copenhagen was a watershed event in terms of understanding how to conceptualize that question, in my view, based on conversations I had with the likes of Mark Boulton, Jen Simmons, and Sam Boyer. In his (excellent) keynote, Jeremy Keith noted that the HTML5 Working Group had a specific, defined set of priorities:
In case of conflict, consider users over authors over implementers over specifiers over theoretical purity.
That may be a good priority order; it may be bad. That depends on your point of view and your goals. It lays out the order in which different stakeholders should be listened to, and if you come to a decision where you have to screw one group over to benefit another how that decision should be made. Having such a clear understanding of your constituent priority is critical to making good, consistent architectural decisions.
So what are Drupal's priorities?
A few weeks ago, I and several others helped some friends of ours pack up their apartment into a truck in preparation for moving cross-country from Chicago to New York. It was, as such moments generally are, bitter sweet. It's always a good feeling to help out a friend, but when you're helping them get further away from you it's not as pleasant.
Of course, me being me, what struck me most about the whole process was how well it served as a model for software development and project management in general.
Well, it's been long enough after DrupalCon for me to survive another conference and a business trip, so I finally have time to reflect.
(See below for slides from my sessions.)
There has been some discussion in recent days regarding Object-Relational Mappers (ORMs), Drupal, and why the latter doesn't use the former. There are, actually, many reasons for that, and for why Drupal doesn't do more with the Active Record pattern.
Rather than tuck such discussion away in an issue queue, I figured it better to document a bit more widely.
According to Drupal.org, it has now been four years and five days since I first joined the Drupal community. My how time flies, and how much has changed since then.
As Drupal gets bigger and bigger in the marketplace, it is moving into areas where system administrators still hold sway. Dedicated servers or server farms have a different set of needs than a shared host when it comes to monitoring and performance.
That's not even Drupal specific. For any high-end web app, it's useful to be able to interact with it for administrative purposes through standard system tools. On Windows, that's the Windows Administrative Tools or IIS. On LAMP, that could be a unified web app like webmin or a KDE control panel plugin or a Gnome applet. Getting a web app into certain organizations requires offering existing sysadmins a way to integrate it into their existing management workflow.
But what pieces of the app do sysadmins want in their existing admin tools? Calling all sysadmins, what do you want from us? :-)
One of the major changes in Drupal 6 (where "major" is defined as "worthy of a mention in Dries' keynote") was a new feature of the menu and theme hooks. The newly introduced "file" and "file path" keys in those hooks' respective retun arrays. allow them to define files that get included conditionally, only when needed. In theory, that should be a big performance boost; page handlers are virtually never called except for on the page they handle, so loading all of that code on every other page is a waste of CPU cycles. Of course, there is also the added cost of the extra disk hit to load that one extra file we need. Modern operating systems should do a pretty good job of caching the file load, but that may vary with the configuration.
So just how much benefit did we get from two dozen fragile patches that were a glorified cut and paste? And is it worth doing more of it? Let's benchmark it and find out.
For those who haven't really been following it, several hundred contributors, 13 months, and tens of thousands of lines of code have gone into making the only version of Drupal ever that is better than Drupal 5. So, naturally, we've released it and called it Drupal 6.
Drupal 6 boasts a boat load of new functionality, ranging from Ajaxy yumminess throughout the system to native support for OpenID to vastly enhanced multi-lingual support. Several entire subsystems have been either overhauled or totally rewritten to proivde more power, flexibility, and speed. The official press release has the complete rundown, or for the more visually inclined there's a new features screencast. For me, though, the new theming system is feature numero uno.

Teacher on leave after stopping fight
Updated On: Apr 10 2013 07:44:17 AM MDT
An 11-year-old broke his wrist when a teacher tried to break up a school yard brawl at John Adams Middle School.
"It just went, 'Crack.' I heard it," said the boy, who asked to remain unnamed.
According to a police report, witnesses told officers they saw the teacher kick the two boys before running after one of them, pushing him to the ground.
The boy admitted he started the fight by pushing another student. The two students have since been suspended for three days.
"He just got me mad," said the boy.
The teacher is being investigated on child abuse allegations, but hasn't been charged with crime.
"A teacher has a right to stop a fight, but not to kick a kid to stop a fight," said the boy's mother.
The teacher is on paid administrative leave until an internal investigation is completed on the incident.

Book Club Selections
By Margo Hammond & Ellen Heltzel
Special Offers
QuestionThe trouble with my book club is that we don't do a good job of picking our books. At the beginning of each year, we all bring suggestions and then informally choose which ones sound interesting. Isn't there a more effective way?
Ellen responds:
Absolutely. But the first order of business for any book club is not picking the books but clarifying its goals. Did your group organize around reading or around people who happen to like each other and also like to read? If your answer is the latter, imposing structure is bound to be more difficult because your get-togethers are inspired as much by social reasons as by intellectual or literary ones. Still, either way, you can all get more bang for your book if you agree out loud on the shared purpose. Then impose one of the cardinal rules from The Reading Group Book, by David Laskin and Holly Hughes: Choose books that at least one member has already read and can vouch for. None of this: "I heard Such-and-Such was pretty good..."
I belong to two book groups, both partly for friendship. In the dual-gender one, known as the Bloomsbury Group, I love the chance to talk about authors and books I either read long ago or am meeting for the first time. Thanks to this group, I've read Nobel Prize winners Knut Hamsun and Rabindranath Tagore. The members of our group joke about some of our erudite picks, but we're all on the same page about reading books of enduring importance.
If your club's goal is more diffuse, try suggesting that you experiment with a yearly theme to gain more focus. This has helped bring focus to my women-only book club. You could choose books by genre (for example, biographies or historical novels), geography (South America, South Africa, etc.), subject matter (race, marriage, raising teenagers and so on). Narrowing the range could bring more discussion-worthy books to the fore.
Margo responds:
Bibliophiles are always saying, "Too many books, too little time." So why, when it comes to picking books for a book club, does everyone seem to get amnesia? I think it's because we are all afraid that the rest of the group won't like our choices. So naturally we offer "safe" but often disappointing picks.
In the only book club I ever joined, our 12 members met once a month in rotation at each other's homes. The person who was hosting for the month also had to pick the book and head the discussion. There was no group pressure to decide on a title, and we ended up discussing some very interesting, if obscure, books. My favorites were Joseph Mitchell's Up in the Old Hotel, a volume of essays on old New York, and In the Lake of the Woods, a novel about a Vietnam veteran by Tim O'Brien.
But what if it's your turn and book amnesia strikes? I suggest you make a list of the books that have engendered the most animated discussion in your club. Take that list to a library or bookstore and ask for recommendations of like-minded books. Or pick up a copy of Book Lust by one of the most famous librarians of all: Nancy Pearl, director of the Washington Center for the Book in Seattle, where she created the much-imitated program "If All of Seattle Reads the Same Book." Pearl offers recommendations for every "mood, moment and reason." That should cover any book club's needs!

Flowers Foods, Inc. (NYSE:FLO)
The Company is a producer and marketer of packaged bakery foods for retail and foodservice customers. Its businesses are organized into two reportable segments: Flowers Bakeries and Flowers Specialty.
"A market beater (tripled) over the past five years." Pretty strong case for being bearish, don't you think? Thanks for the info, Dave.
This stock is obviously overpriced. I'm a little nervous about the mere .08% decline today, but I think a P/E of 24 isn't realistic for a new, obscure bakery. It's probably because no one even cares. And I'm not really loyal to any bakeries. Are you?
And, I hate to be the only bear on here, but you know, wearing the bear hat has made me a lot of money lately. This one is perfect. Dull-normal industry. And everyone just loves it. Guess like Cramer says, there's no one else to convince. I like to talk about financial gravity. The higher up on the graph the stock gets, the greater the pull of financial gravity to finally bring it back to earth.
No, I didn't dig into any numbers. Look at the forest, not the trees.
What makes you think that it is overpriced? The population keeps getting bigger, so more food is needed and therefor sold, and in America that means bread. They have good brand loyalty, and do well enough to split almost like clockwork. This is not some superstar stock, but slow and steady at a pace that still outperforms most
just a money machine people gotta eart!

The Queen Visits the Bookie -- April Fool's Day, 2004
The Daily Mail ran a photo, allegedly taken by an Austrian tourist named Otto Breeching (an anagram for "bet on the corgi"), showing the Queen with her corgis at a bookmaker placing a bet on the Grand National: "The Daily Mail can reveal that the Queen has insisted on placing her bet in person every year since a flutter went disastrously wrong... And what of the latest wager? A betting shop spokesman would say only that the VIP customer had placed 'a sizeable sum' on one horse to win at the Aintree meeting on Saturday. He declined to name the horse, adding: 'If everyone finds out what she's putting her money on, all the odds will go crazy.'"

A group of 12 broadcasters has filed a petition with the Federal Communications Commission to reconsider new rules requiring the online posting of their "political files."
The broadcasters, calling themselves the Television Station Group, are seeking modifications to parts of the rules, which were adopted in April and will force local stations to post to the internet all records detailing when political commercials air, in which markets, and how much each campaign paid for each ad.
The group's main concern lies in revealing to media buyers on Madison Avenue exactly how much TV stations charge for political advertising. Under law, broadcasters must charge a lowest-unit rate for political ads, and if those rates are widely accessible on an FCC-managed website, private-sector advertisers may begin to clamor for that same low rate.
"It is axiomatic that disclosure of price information is anti-competitive and disrupts markets--in this case, not only the local political advertising marketplace but also the local commercial advertising marketplace more generally, because stations' political ad rates, by law, must be based on commercial advertising rates (and based on their most favorable rates during the political 'windows')," the group wrote in the petition, filed late June 11.
These same companies said the same earlier this year, when a similar coalition of broadcasters, also led by Barrington, made a counterproposal to the FCC that would have required TV stations, under the new rules, to make available online only the names of the ad buyers and aggregate amounts paid for an ad spot.
The FCC rejected the proposals, reasoning that such ad rate information has been available on paper for years.
TV stations already are required by law to maintain a political file, but only on paper. Currently, to access the files, citizens must go to each local TV station to sift through them by hand.
The FCC's rules are not expected to take effect until the summer. They are already subject to a lawsuit by the National Association of Broadcasters and have been targeted by Republicans through the appropriations process.

We do, however, need a process that is truly representative of We the People so that we feel that our voices have been heard. That process is failing us and many Americans from all sides are feeling strangled and fed up. That process must include not only transparency, fair and clean elections, it must include opportunities for the public to be part of the deliberation.
We must learn from the lessons of the past. As Lincoln implored us to do in 1861 in his Inaugural Address, we must be friends, not enemies.
We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.
We need a process in which deliberation and dialogue are integrated. Dialogue is not the only part of our democratic process, but it is a vital one. It should not be diminished as "mere talk." Consider why free speech is the first amendment.
I know some people out there think "talk is cheap" and believe that talk is not action. I beg to differ. So much of what we do in the political arena comes down to communication.
Let's take North Carolina's Moral Mondays movement. The participants are trying to communicate to fellow North Carolinians. Civil disobedience and arrests lead to news reports which get people talking about why people have been arrested. The public awareness turns into political pressure on lawmakers.
Let's also break down how dialogue can help us counter the "money in politics" problem. Big money doesn't automatically turn into electoral outcomes. Money is used to buy ads (communication and media products) which have a powerful influence (unfortunately) on how people talk, think, act and vote.
The national dialogue is currently unhealthy, destructive, full of misinformation, unsafe and controlled by a few people who own corporate mainstream media. Imagine if we can call for regular in-person community meetings and virtual meetups in which We the People can inform each other and think together. Imagine: We the People would not be at the mercy of what is reported in mainstream media.
Dialogue also does not preclude organizing a particular group of people to engage and vote. Please, let's not create false choices and insist that we can't have dialogue because we should be organizing voter turnout for a party or candidate. It is not an either-or. We can surely do both.
Real change will begin when we begin talking to each other as We the People and see that we are not each other's enemies. The people with their hands on the levers are behind the curtain hidden from view making decisions that impact us without accountability.
We are imprisoned by our inability to see beyond the shadows on the cave wall.

Dr. B and the Women
By T Cooper
Bowers herself seems most incredulous about the next stage of the surgery, in which a pretty sizable cavity must be created where there wasn't one before. Essentially, the doctor makes room for the vaginal canal by boring a hole into the area between the anus and the neo-clitoris by cutting and cauterizing. 'There's this potential space we open up -- it's amazing we can do it. It's very tedious, but we do it day in and day out, so it works,' she explains.
And the skin that creates the lining of that new pocket? It comes from turning the penis inside out (yes, exactly like a sock)and then grafting it to the harvested scrotal skin, which meanwhile, at a separate work station, has been wrapped around a dildo-like stent and sewn together (with any remaining hair follicles removed). The whole graft -- penile and scrotal skin sewn around the stent -- is then placed inside the cavity to create the neo-vaginal canal, which in Bowers's surgeries generally ends up providing about six inches of depth for her patients (not to mention her patients' future sexual partners) to enjoy.
Before wrapping up the three- to four-hour procedure, a new urethra is created, the inner labia is sculpted and lined with urinary mucosa (to give it the pinkish, moist attributes of a natal vagina), and a protective hood is sculpted over the clitoris. The labia majora is closed up in a large but tidy 'V' shape, which will be completely concealed when pubic hair grows back. Four days in the hospital plus a few more under Cometto's tutelage at the Morning After, and patients are good to go. They are asked to refrain from heavy lifting and activity and instructed to dilate their vaginal canals with increasingly larger dilators over the next weeks and months. Sexual activity is specifically discouraged for at least six weeks (though three months is suggested), but some patients report experiencing what they believe is an orgasm from the dilation process. Remarkably, the vast majority of Bowers's patients do not experience much pain at any time during the process -- just a bit of persistent discomfort from the catheter and vaginal packing, both of which are removed about a week after surgery.
Bowers has been performing her revolutionary vaginoplasties solo for six years, having taken over the practice of Dr. Stanley Biber, an early pioneer of sexual reassignment surgery who established his practice in Trinidad in the late 1960s, after his death. Trinidad, population 9,000, is a gritty old mining town along the Santa Fe Trail, halfway between Santa Fe and Denver on Interstate 25. 'Not a day goes by where I don't wish I was out of here,' Bowers says of her adopted hometown -- she spends a good deal of time in Seattle, where her children live with their mother (whom Bowers still calls her spouse even though they are no longer intimate). 'I mean, you gotta buy your cosmetics at Wal-Mart. But I've come to realize that L'Or'al mascara is just as good as Chanel.'
In addition to the lure of the Wal-Mart Supercenter just south of town, Trinidad proudly boasts some pretty righteous New Mexican and Mexican cuisine, a quaint, authentic Western-storefronted downtown vaguely expectant of another showdown at the O.K. Corral, a few dozen churches -- and a 'down-home friendly atmosphere' touted on the official Trinidad Chamber of Commerce website. But what's not mentioned on the town's promotional websites or in any of the myriad tourist brochures proffered at local businesses is what Trinidad -- as evidenced on Oprah, Tyra, CBS Sunday Morning, BBC, NPR, MSNBC, We TV, the Discovery Channel, and so on -- is best known for: being the 'sex change capital of the world.' Well before Bowers arrived to work with Biber in early 2003, Trinidad had earned its unofficial official moniker. According to Wikipedia, as far back as the '60s the saying 'taking a trip to Trinidad' was a euphemism for having an MTF sex-change operation.
Bookended by two prominent red-rock peaks, palpably low-key Trinidad is nestled into a small southern Colorado valley that gets its name from the sleepy river that runs through it, the Purgatoire. From there it's an easy symbolic leap to that other state of purgatory: a place of limbo between heaven and hell, torturous and unsettling, where you're stuck until somebody back in the real world can cobble together enough cash for your indulgences to spring you into heaven.
While not all transpeople opt for surgical transition -- many simply cannot afford the luxury; some prefer solely hormonal transition; and still others are comfortable with no hormones or surgery at all -- a lot of transfolk who do want to alter their genitals will describe feeling 'stuck' in between sexes. Hedwig and that angry inch. 'So many MTF patients figure it's all about the vagina. Build it and they will come,' Bowers riffs, laughing. 'But that's simply not true. Not only will they not come, but they won't even get it up for you.'
'And that's one of the tragedies of transition,' she continues, more soberly. 'There are a lot of people who get left behind. Because the fact is, the rules are different for women, and society judges very harshly if you don't meet a female standard, if you're not beautiful in some way. And some people who transition -- they were the star football player with shoulders you could eat lunch on. Then you transition over and you want to be, you know -- you're not going to be Twiggy.'
Each year, Bowers's practice pumps hundreds of thousands of dollars into Trinidad's somewhat shaky economy and generates millions in revenues for Mount San Rafael Hospital, where she performs her surgeries. And yet, the hospital board recently presented her with new requirements that would have made most of her procedures so expensive that few patients would be able to afford them any longer, essentially pricing her out of town.
It was apparently the multipart television documentary Sex Change Hospital that whipped one particularly intolerant member of the hospital administration into a bitter froth, which raised some warning flags for the hospital's board of directors, whom Bowers describes as 'good old boys who don't have any malice toward what I do and know it's been going on here forever.' But the board's already tepid and religion-tinged predisposition was buffeted by this very squeaky wheel, and then, according to Bowers, in addition to untenable price hikes, 'they put what I think are unhealthy restrictions on the media, basically charging them, to keep the sensationalism away. No other hospital in the state charges the media.'
Biber was no stranger to fights with the town about his practice either. Cometto, who grew up around the doctor and his family, explains, 'I ate at Dr. Biber's table more often than not. And this man fought, every day, to get where he was. I told Marci, 'You have to fight. Just because you're this big-shot surgeon, [doesn't mean you don't] have to fight. You can't let this man down and just pack up your bag and leave.''
In fact, Bowers has been considering two very tempting offers, to take her practice to either Seattle or San Francisco. But when some members of the Trinidad community got wind of the hospital's hostile maneuvering, Bowers recalls, 'People were like, 'Oh, she's gonna leave? Oh, wait, Maybe that's not a good idea.' And then the town's ready to march with picks and shovels and burning torches like they did in Frankenstein. It's the history. It's the people. But you're also literally supporting a community. There would be a sucking sound as things left here -- it would really change the fabric of the community.' And so ultimately, the board backed down and accepted Bowers's pricing proposal, just a slight increase akin to those issued every year to adjust for costs. For now, the rock star of the transgender surgery world has decided to stay in Trinidad.
'Listen, you're going to fight it no matter where you go. Somebody always pops up who's going to have an issue with what you're doing,' Bowers says. 'Of course, there's a little resentment like, 'Why couldn't we be known as the mining capital of the West, have everyone from all over the world coming to look at our mining museum?' Little towns struggle without a niche, but we have a niche. If Trinidad would really get it, they'd put in T-shirt shops, make it a curiosity. the sex change capital of the world! They'd have a lingerie shop, tattoos, coffee cups, and souvenirs. Carol said we need blow-up dolls; blow 'em up and the dick pops out!'

Michigan has gone from nearly 600,000 customers without power to fewer than 65,000. Maine, which was down to 20,000 customers without power just yesterday, is now down to 12,000. Western Canada still has more than 101,000 people without electricity this morning.
Utility officials still say it could be days before power is restored to everyone.
The repair work is physical and dangerous, especially with below-freezing temperatures. Ice can weigh down power lines so that they break, or tree branches can fall and take the lines with them.
The storm has been blamed for 17 deaths in the U.S. and 10 in Canada. Five people apparently died from carbon monoxide poisoning tied to using generators.

What can you say about the episode you're filming this week?
Well, we're doing a Mark Gatiss script. He's written numerous Doctor Who episodes. We've got Diana Rigg, Dame Diana Rigg — Emma Peel! (Rigg played Peel on the beloved '60s U.K show The Avengers)! I mean, she is one of the first kick-arse women. It's wonderful. What an actress! What a lady! We're thrilled to have someone of her caliber on the show.
I think Mark has written a wonderfully sprawling episode. Let me read you a line. This is an exclusive! "Well, thanks a million, you three. Have some Pontefract Cakes on me." So there we go. I'm giving it all away! It's a great episode. The Doctor's in a cool new Victorian costume. I get a hat and a three-piece suit. I'm having a ball!
This is one of the first episodes to feature the Doctor's new companion, played by Jenna-Louise Coleman. How is she doing?
She's doing really well. She's thoroughly prepared, has a lovely nature about her, and I think she really gets Steven's writing. This show is about change and it's about regeneration and the only thing you can do is move with it. So we embrace and welcome Jenna and she's doing really well.
Doctor Who is such a big deal in the U.K. Her life is about to completely change. Did you give her any advice?
Yeah, as much as you can. You say, "The truth is your life is going to change really dramatically in ways that you probably can't even fathom at the moment. You know, the next time you go to a family wedding, you won't be left alone." But to an extent you have to discover that sort of thing for yourself. But it's all for the good, really. It's just about being positive. How do you handle anything? It's part of your job. You never say "No" to children. It's just part of the remit.
You once described Steven Moffat as "brilliantly cantankerous." Would you care to expand on that?
He is brilliantly cantankerous. He has very firm opinions about everything — apart from what car he's meant to get into going from A to B, where he generally looks quite confused. He doesn't quite know where he should be going once he's leaving somewhere and going somewhere else.
But, I mean, Steven makes me laugh more than most people in the world. He is acute and funny and ironic and silly and remains, at the ripe and seasoned age of 50, very child-like and ridiculous and good fun. I just read the Christmas special and there's a bit in it where I'm like, "Where does he get it from? Where? Where does it come from?" Because it's totally left field as an idea, and it's magic. The invention through form in this show — I mean, can you imagine having to plot this show?
You're friends with Andrew Garfield, who actually appeared on Doctor Who a few of years ago. How did you meet?
We did a play together at the National Theatre in London. It was a trilogy of plays called Burn, Chatroom, and Citizenship. I remember at the read-through looking up and going, "Whoah, this kid's good. Damn!" I was like, "Boy, this kid's something. I've got to raise my game." He's an incredible actor and it's no surprise to me that he's doing the things that he's doing. I knew at that read-through. I loved working with him every night and we went to war, you know.
It must be surreal now that he's Spider-Man, you're the star of Doctor Who.
It is kind of surreal, I've got to say. I knew I'd come across one of the actors of a generation when I worked with him and absolutely that's what he is. But he's a good guy as well.
Have you discussed with Steven an end date to your tenure as the Doctor?
Not really, no. We've got too much to plan in the meantime. We've got the 50th anniversary stuff next year. I take it year by year. Because it's such a commitment on your life. I don't think you could do it for 7 years, like Tom Baker did. It would age you too savagely. The great thing about the Doctor is that there's no stop sign. He can keep going and keep evolving and he can surprise you and the moment he stops surprising you is probably the moment that you should hand it over.
