The Maricopa Association of Governments' official bulletin board for posting notices is located on the third floor of the MAG offices, 302 N. 1st Ave., Phoenix, Arizona, near the reception desk. Please be advised that only MAG's official bulletin board may be relied on for official posting under the Open Meeting Law.
This electronic information available on the website is provided as a public service and is updated daily, Monday-Friday. To view the meeting notice, click on the link to the meeting of interest in the calendar above.
The Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) is a Council of Governments (COG) that serves as the regional planning and policy agency for the metropolitan Phoenix area. When MAG was formed in 1967, the elected officials recognized the need for data driven long-range planning and policy development on a regional scale. They realized that many issues such as transportation, air quality and human services affected residents beyond the borders of their individual jurisdictions.
MAG was founded in the spirit of cooperation. MAG members believe that by uniting, they can solve common problems, take an active role in long-range regional issues and address concerns that affect all of the communities. MAG conducts extensive applied research needed to accomplish its core mission of strengthening the Greater Phoenix region and State of Arizona
MAG is the regional air quality planning agency and metropolitan planning organization for transportation for all jurisdictions in Maricopa County, including the Phoenix urbanized area and the contiguous urbanized area in Pinal County, including the Town of Florence and City of Maricopa. MAG has also been designated by the Governor to serve as the principal planning agency for the region in a number of other areas, including water quality and solid waste management. In addition, through an Executive Order from the Governor, MAG develops population estimates and projections for the region. Extensive primary research aids in this work.
The Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) is conducting the 2015 MAG Household Travel Survey to understand the travel behavior of Valley residents in Maricopa, Pinal, and portions of Yavapai and Gila counties. Residents who choose to participate will be asked to provide details of the travel patterns of those living in the household. The survey is an important component in the regional transportation planning process. Information from the survey is used to understand commute patterns and other aspects of travel behavior in the region, which helps transportation planners determine where new roads or improvements may be needed in the future.

The summer heat in Arizona can be deadly. According to the National Weather Service, the Phoenix area averages 110 days of temperatures above 100 degrees. It is important to protect yourself from the dangers of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Vulnerable populations like older adults, children, people who are experiencing homelessness and those who work outdoors, need to take extra precautions. The Maricopa Association of Governments has partnered with non-profit organizations, the faith-based community, cities and towns in the region and others to form the Heat Relief Network and to provide heat relief maps.
These maps have been created to indicate resources available in the community:
The collection and donations map provides regional locations that are collecting bottled water and other donations such as clothing, unopened sun block, and food items for those who are in need. The hydration stations map indicates regional locations that people can go to for water or other donations. Our refuge and emergency hydration map includes locations that provide a safe, cool place indoors during the day for homeless people. Additional information from our Continuum of Care Committee on protecting yourself from the dangers of Arizona's heat can be found here and at the Maricopa County website. For additional information on regional heat relief efforts, please contact Celina Brun at (602) 254-6300.

Why CTF4 is bad
I have finished another CTF match yesterday with 666 score, still don't have an award... : (
how i can contact with admins/mods?
Good day,
I have found out that I haven't received this award yet, even my statistics show that I have won 29 FFA matches. What is the case? Is it a bug?
"Scrapper" award statement:
Win 25 Free For All matches.
Had my 2505th win last night, and five more so far today, yet no "Go Pro"-award is showing up on my profile page.
I was playing on space CTF the other day (september 28) and I got 2 'holy sh*t's' in a row.
At least, I'm pretty sure it was me, but you never know that I'm mistaken.
I have a demo of it. It's after about 20 seconds.
One person mentioned that it might be because I took the enemies flag before fragging the enemy flag carrier and that it was the 'Holy Sh*t" announcement on the client that is bugged. As far as I can tell from the console, I acutally fragged the EFC before taking the enemy flag
Either way, there is something buggy going on: either I didn't get the award while I should have, or the client announcement was wrong (yelling 'holy sh*t' without a reason, much like an 8-year old would do )
Similar story here... I have over 1000 kills, but I don't have "Fraggin' Great" award... O.o
I didn't received any award for some time?!
This is the problem,Im not English and dont Write too good this Languaje,is a Bug?
I have the same problem with 3 other awards... They will pop up eventually.
Sometimes they pop up just before you reach 10k more often than not they will apear on time like after you finish the game and sometimes it takes a short while after, they will/should come.

ORLEANS COUNTY – It's day three of the federal government shutdown and what that means on the local level depends on who you are. Read about who got hit and how in Thursday's edition of the Newport Daily Express for Oct. 3, 2013.
NEWPORT CITY - After years of the same ownership, Terry and Roxanna Prue are selling their business, Glass Medics, to Craig and Jeri Stevens. Terry Prue is Craig Stevens' uncle.
The Prues opened the business at their home in 1997 on West Main Street. They advertised in local newspapers and on the radio. The business quickly expanded and, within six months, moved to 1257 East Main Street. This is the location of the former Elmwood Dairy.

ORLEANS–Tuesday's girls soccer match between Lake Region and Oxbow was a classic example of what can happen when you do not take advantage of your scoring opportunities.
Lake Region out-shot Oxbow 14-4, with several of the shots coming from prime scoring locations, but balls were either fired wide, or directly at Oxbow's netminder Meghan Williams, and the end result was a 2-1 win for the Olympians.
ST. JOHNSBURY–Myra Degre's goal with 2:43 left in the first was the difference as North Country slipped past St. Johnsbury Academy on Tuesday afternoon.
Degre's goal came on a nice through-ball from Lindsey Gaboriault that she converted on from 20 yards out.
The Falcons were without Devinnie Davis, who hopes to be back in action later this week, and Michaela Columbia, who suffered an injury over Maniatty weekend.
With the win North Country improves to 3-6, while St. J drops to 1-7-1.
The Falcons will host unbeaten CVU on Friday at 4:00.
NEWPORT CITY – Monday afternoon the North Country Supervisory Union hosted an open house at their new location on Duchess Avenue. The move from the former Newport Hospital on Highland Avenue was necessary as the building is being renovated and turned into housing units.
The new facility will host the high school's alternative program, supervisory union staff, and, in an adjacent building, early childhood programs.

BARTON – Peter LeBlanc started work at Green Mountain Nursery in Irasburg in 1991 and two years later used his entrepreneurial spirit to start a landscaping business, Nature By Design.
The company moved to its present location on RT 5 between the villages of Barton and Orleans in the year 2000. A wide variety of trees, shrubs, flowering plants, and fruit trees are displayed as part of LeBlanc's substantial inventory. In addition, garden ornaments, sun dials, fountains, wind chimes, and metal suns are a part of the garden ornaments and accessories offered at the store.
Mayor Paul Monette appeared in court in Newport Tuesday where he entered a guilty plea to driving while under the influence. He was given a probationary sentence with conditions, community work service and a fine. Later, he read a statement in which he apologized for his behavior.

Flames poured out of this Chrysler Pacifica at the Subway Restaurant in Newport City Monday. The Newport City Fire Department responded to extinguish the fire at around noon. The cause of the fire is unknown and is considered accidental. Debra Lawes owns the vehicle, which East Main towed away. Due to the proximately of the building, the restaurant closed while the fire department dealt with the incident.

Your UW Bothell I-20 cannot be issued until the Center for International Education receives your completed I-20 Request Form, along with a copy of your passport identification page and sufficent proof of finances. All financial documents must be within the last six months and show sufficient funds to cover the estimated total cost of expected educational and living expenses. The most commonly submitted documents are bank statements.
Examples of acceptable sources of funding: Checking/savings account, scholarship award letter, certificates of deposits, fixed deposits, fixed term certificate of deposits, educational loans (pre-approved and includes student's name), bonds (maturity date listed and is before the start of the student's first quarter at UWB).
Examples of account types that are NOT accepted: Salary statements, stock market funds, business accounts, insurance policies, home/land value documents, and retirement funds.
If you will be traveling outside the U.S. before beginning your studies at UW Bothell, you must have your UW Bothell I-20 and a valid visa to re-enter the U.S. If you require a new F-1 visa, CIE strongly encourages you to apply for your visa in your home country. However, if you remain in the U.S., you can pursue your studies with an expired visa.
This is only required only for students who will be new to the U.S.. If you are transferring to UW Bothell from another U.S. institution, you do not need to pay the I-901 fee again.
F-1 students are required to pay the I-901 SEVIS fee . This fee is imposed by the United States Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS), and must be paid and processed before the applicant arrives at the consulate. You will not be issued a visa without paying the fee.
You are required to provide your SEVIS number (located on on the upper right corner of your UW Bothell I-20) when you pay for the I-901 SEVIS fee.
Applicants must bring the SEVIS fee payment receipt with them for the visa interview, or, for those that do not need a visa, to the U.S. port of entry. Having a receipt for the SEVIS fee payment will facilitate the visa application process. However, if you are unable to print a receipt from an online payment and/or do not receive your mailed receipt in time of your visa interview you can still go to your interview and attempt to obtain your visa as long as your fee has been processed.
If you are transferring to UW Bothell from another U.S. institution, you may need to apply for a new F1 visa if your current F1 visa has expired and you will be re-entering the U.S. before starting your program of study at UW Bothell.
Your UW Bothell I-20 and I-901 SEVIS fee receipt allows you to make an appointment to apply for your F-1 student visa at a U.S. consulate or embassy.
Applying for a U.S. visa can take anywhere from one day to four weeks, or longer, so you should allow enough time for the visa application process. ISS strongly encourages you to apply in your home country, because it can be risky to apply in a country other than your home country. For instance, if you apply for a new visa in Canada and encounter delays, you must remain in Canada for the length of the processing. You will not be able to re-enter the U.S. until the visa is approved.

Is Chandler The Lynchpin To STAT's Slow Start?
Amar'e's early season struggles are hard to ignore. While most are pointing the finger at Melo for the lack of cohesion, and others (see: me) are lamenting about how bad this team's coach is at using his players the right way, the chart below throws Tyson Chandler into the mix as a candidate in the "Who Stole Amar'e's Swag" saga.
Via TheKnicksWall:
11 more points when the middle is open for STAT? 36% up to 52% shooting when Tyson is on the bench? Those are staggering improvements considering we all (again, see: me) thought that Chandler would help open up the middle for Amar'e this season.
Part of this may be due to the fact that STAT's play without TC often comes against the opponent's second unit. He can score without the other teams starting center playing up on him. But for anybody watching games these days, we all know it is more than that.
Obviously STAT needs to start hitting his outside jump shots. He was pretty automoatic from 12-17 feet last year, which allowed him to use a pump fake and a strong first-step to blow by some of the less-athletic 4s and 5s that were assigned to guard him. He seemed equally effective from both the inside and outside.
With his jumper on the
kinda horrifyingly long fritz, Amar'e has lost a huge tool in his offensive arsenal. But more importantly, it has forced him to look to come inside and score closer to the basket. Last year, there was nobody else down low to get in STAT's way. This year, with Tyson down low, there is a bit of a log-jam on the interior — Chandler's man can hedge a lot of the time and force Amar'e to alter his shot.
So, as it is playing out, rather than benefiting from Tyson's interior presence, STAT seems to be unable to find a comfortable spot on the floor when the team's other big man is taking up residence near the basket.
Hopefully, the team figures this out and finds a way to utilize Amar'e in a valuable way when Chandler is on the floor. Because right now, it just isn't working like it should.
Time for some thinking and problem-solving — you know, through things like coaching and game planning. It would be a novel approach for a coaching staff and team in serious need of making some corrections…

"Distinguished Audio With Superb Detail Retrieval"
Musical Fidelity was one of the first audiophile companies to offer a DAC. Since then, the company has established a solid tradition of creating top performing, top value digital products. A perfect case in the point is the brand new M1 DAC, which is the culmination of over 23 years of experience design superb sounding DACs.
The M1 gives you plenty of input format choices with four digital inputs: coax, optical, balanced, and USB. Versatility accompanies the connectivity. The M1 DAC will lock on to any S/PDIF signal at 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88 kHz, 96 kHz, or 192 kHz. The input sampling frequency is displayed on the front panel.
"Consider the Bar Raised"
"Unlike budget components of yore, where pleasant 'grayish' sound was the best you could reasonably expect, the M1 is musical, arresting, and involving in the way a good audio component should be, regardless of price," reports Steven Stone in The Absolute Sound magazine for May/June 2011. "Consider the bar raised."
"Explicit Sound""The M1 DAC's explicit sound should certainly breathe new life into aging CD players," notes John Bamford in his October 2010 review for England's Hi-Fi News magazine. "It delivers distinguished audio with superb detail retrieval and a broad, deep soundstage."
"It has been nearly six years since I enjoyed a Musical Fidelity system as much as the M1DAC, M1HPA, and V-Link," observes a ComputerAudiophile.com review for January 22, 2011. "In an industry with six and seven figure audio systems it's hard to believe three zeros can be removed from the end of the price tag and still allow someone to put together a really good system."
Oversampling 24-Bit DAC
The M1 DAC consists of a top quality over sampling 24-bit digital-to-analog converter circuit which upsamples all incoming data rates to 192 kHz. This is genuine true upsampling and moves the digital artifacts to well outside the audio band, allowing their easy removal without detriment to the top end of the audio band.
The well-tuned filtering circuit results in immeasurably small jitter, noise, and distortion, allowing astounding imaging, detail, and transparency, to deliver all music types exactly as the artist originally intended.
The M1 DAC has been carefully designed to be partnered with M1 series, and also matches well with M3 and M6 series products. These combinations will yield one of the best high-fidelity systems available at any price.
Performance Rivals Any DAC
According to Musical Fidelity's Founder and Managing Director Antony Michaelson, "The M1's technical performance is, pretty well, as good as any at any price. We know this sounds like an incredible claim but it's true." And the company has the track record to back him up!
Musical Fidelity's state-of-the-art circuit design and PCB layout with the use of premium quality digital components gives state-of-the-art performance. "Unsurprisingly, the result is state-of-the-art performance," says Antony. "It's just that the price is competitive so many people find it hard to believe."
Vanishingly Low Distortion
The M1 DAC has vanishingly low distortion, typically less than 0.005% across the band. Frequency response is ruler flat. Jitter is extremely low. The noise ratio is outstanding, making it one of the quietest DACs in the world regardless of price. "Looking at the M1 DAC's total measurements and comparing them to any DAC up to ten times its price you will see that, on balance, the M1 DAC is equal to or better than any," Antony concludes.
Choke-Regulated Power Supply
The M1 DAC has a high quality power supply featuring choke filtration on the mains input. This effectively acts as a an AC line conditioner which increases the performance and value of the M1 to even greater heights.
The choke regulation is derived from the massive Titan power amp and is used throughout the M6 and M3 product lines. As far as we know, the use of a choke filter is unique in a DAC. It filters out unwanted noise from the mains and allows the M1 to work properly, regardless of AC power line irregularities. It makes a huge difference in the sound quality.
Typical choke designs can end up causing as many difficulties as they solve, because they create a magnetic field that has deleterious effects on the musical signal. But the bifilar choke regulation system used by Musical Fidelity cancels out the magnetic fields that other styles of chokes generate. The circuit takes advantage of a tried and true design. The company has been using this technology since 1987.
"The M1 DAC's explicit sound should certainly breathe new life into aging CD players."
"It delivers distinguished audio, with superb detail retrieval and a broad, deep soundstage. Moreover you'll have the benefit of gaining extra digital inputs for other sources - such as that rough-sounding TV set top box, perhaps."
"Finally, out of sheer curiosity, I hooked up the MF to the optical S/PDIF output of the Sky TV receiver. The [M1] transformed the sound. The orchestra during a BBC Proms concert marking the 80th birthday of the American composer Stephen Sondheim now sounded full-bodied and vibrant."

Hornets can be found around Vermont homes during the autumn months of the year. Hornet problems occur because they typically make nests in openings and on exterior furniture and light fixtures. They will also set up residence under light fixtures, deck railings and eaves of Vermont homes creating even more hornet problems and hornet damage.
Hornets problems are most noticeable during the fall, when hornets are notorious for disrupting outdoor activities, especially when food or drinks are available. One way to implement hornet control is to keep food or drinks covered while outdoors, which will help to get rid of hornets when they are searching for food. It is important to take extra caution when shooing away hornets to prevent stings or other hornet problems. It is best to contact your local Critter Control hornet control specialist to safely provide hornet removal.
The experts at Vermont Critter Control specialize in safe hornet control and hornet removal solutions. Sometimes it is difficult to implement hornet control, particularly when the hornet nests are concealed or difficult to access. Critter Control knows effective methods for getting rid of hornets, how to get rid of hornet nests, and preventing hornets from building future nests in the same location. In order to protect you and your family from getting stung during hornet removal, it is best to contact a Critter Control expert who has the proper gear and hornet control solutions.
If you are experiencing a hornet problem in or around your Vermont home, contact the experts at Critter Control today at 1-800-CRITTER for effective hornet control solutions.

Starting Pitcher: Braves offer 4-yr Deal to Lowe
Jon Heyman of SI.com believes the Braves offered Derek Lowe a four-year contract, worth close to $60 million.
According to Heyman, "Lowe is in serious discussions with the Braves."
Last night on the MLB Network's Hot Stove show, Heyman said the Mets are discouraged by negotiations with Lowe, who is also being pursued by the Braves, 'any maybe the Phillies, and maybe the Brewers.'
Heyman also reports, "The Mets are proposing a three-year deal for close to $30 million for Perez, although, a four-year deal for Lowe, may convince them they need to give him another year."
…this is what i have been saying for a few days now, in that, if the Mets lose lowe to the Braves, knowing the market at that point, it would not surprise me if the Mets end up having to give perez a four-year deal as well…
…i believe, if the Mets need to dish out a four-year deal, the four-year deal should go to lowe, because, while he's older, he's also significantly more consistent, and that is what should be most important to the Mets right now – not youth and left-handedness…but, i have a feeling i may be alone in this view…
Heyman believes Omar Minaya would rather sign Perez, while the Mets front office prefers Lowe.
"We do have offers out there," Minaya told reporters in a conference call. "You never know. You're negotiating. As far as something happening soon, I don't know that… I'm not going to tell you I'm too confident. I would say that's it's 50-50, and we'll see what happens."

POTSDAM When Clarkson took the ice for the first time in 2013 last weekend there was a new face in the lineup.
Freshman forward T.J. Moor, a 21-year-old from Lake St. Louis, Miss., joined the program in time for the second semester and skated in his first two games last weekend, picking up an assist against UMass-Lowell on Saturday night.
Moor, who is 5-foot-10, 180 pounds, played last year with the Dubuque (Iowa) Fighting Saints of the U.S. Hockey League and scored 14 goals with 23 assists in 53 games. He was part of Clarksons recruiting class, but had to get a bit more schoolwork done before he could start his college career.
Clarkson stuck with me the whole way, Moor said. The coaching staff is a great group of guys. I just had to get all my schoolwork done to get here. It was all on me. I just beared down and focused and got it done to make sure I could come here.
Moors first impression for the area fans was that of a speedy forward who was a hustler.
Hes someone who works hard, Clarkson coach Casey Jones said. He played a pretty prominent role on a good team in the (U.S. Hockey League) last year. Hell play at high level for us.
Moor was not on a team during the first part of the season. He worked out at the Power Play Gym in St. Louis, which is owned by former National Hockey League defenseman Rik Wilson, who skated for St. Louis, Chicago, and Calgary in 251 games from 1981-88.
I spent most of my time working out there all week long, Moor said. I was practicing four or five times a week.
Said Jones, Hes a pretty focused kid and he skated a lot. Missing time, youre not in physical, contact shape. For the most part you are just not getting bumped. Your awareness for being prepared to make a play, and get hit at any time, thats the thing thats going to take some time.
The timing worked out for Moor, who got the chance to debut with Clarkson at Cheel Arena, instead of in a post-Christmas tournament elsewhere.
Its just great, Moor said. Im really enjoying everything and all the guys are great. Im glad to be here. I was watching every game on the internet. I struggled a little bit in the beginning of the first week of practice, but at the end of the week I felt good in the games.
Another Clarkson player who missed the first half of the season was sophomore defenseman Kevin Tansey, who was the victim of an assault in Canada over the summer.
Tansey, who is 6-3, 207 pounds, will not play this season. He is back in school for the second semester and is using a medical redshirt, which enables him to practice with the team and have three years of eligibility remaining after this season.
It feels awesome, Tansey said. It was about five months that I didnt skate, due to shoulder surgery and all that. It was great to be back with the guys again.
Tansey, who scored two goals with seven assists in 39 games last year, estimated that hes at about 80 percent of his normal abilities right now.
I feel a little bit slow out there, Tansey said. My first three steps arent quite there and I still need to regain some strength. Im in the weight room with (strength and conditioning coach Jaime Rodriguez) four times a week lifting weights. A couple more times a week Ill do some core stuff or more cardio. Its a good way to get back in shape. Its a lot harder to play defense (in practice) when you cant play contact. Its hard to do on-on-ones. Im working hard in every drill and I try not to mess things up and screw up the practice.
Said Jones, Hes a warrior. Its killing him inside that hes not able to play, but its giving him an opportunity to make sure the skills stay intact and compete with our guys. Hes the type of guy who is great in the locker room. Its important for us to have him around, and its important for him, emotionally, to be around too.
Tansey was not in school in the first semester, but he made the short drive from Hammond, Ontario, to attend every home game in the first semester.
It was very important to me, Tansey said. You cant keep me away from hockey. I like supporting our team.
Tansey will wind up leaving Clarkson with this years freshmen class, which was the class he was originally supposed to be part of. He came to school a year early when Mark Borowiecki left after his junior season, freeing up a roster spot.
Hes an imposing player, Jones said. Its in his best interest for this redshirt situation. He can go in any rink on any night and compete at a high level. Thats the thing you miss most without Kevin in the lineup.

Cross country Gear
Long before it was a sport, cross-country skiing was a necessity of daily life as a form of transportation from Scandinavia to Siberia.
It seems to have evolved into a sport sometime in the late 18th century, when more reliable forms of transportation were developed.
Cross-country skiing hit the big time when it was featured in the 1988 Olympics, though many people have been practicing the recreational form (also known as touring) for a couple of centuries.
Over the past few decades the genre evolved, and now, Nordic sports also include Telemark skiing as well as snowshoeing.
If you thought downhill skiing or snowboarding kept you in great shape, try a day on a pair of cross-country skis and you'll understand why these athletes are so unbelievably fit.
This is because Nordic skiing uses virtually every muscle in your body to propel you forward. In fact, many experts recommend that you spend time strength conditioning before you begin cross-country skiing as a serious hobby.
Because Nordic skiing uses both the "push" and "pull" muscles on both your upper and lower body and uses your core to keep you stabilized, there is virtually no other sport on earth quite as effective at keeping you in peak physical health and helping you burn calories.
In fact, cross-country skiing burns more calories per hour than any other sport or exercise, maxing out at nearly 1,100 calories per hour.
Now that you know the health benefits of cross-country skiing, here are some enriching experiences you can have while on Nordic skis.

Fresh off two huge wins, the Rangers are in California this week to
take on the Anaheim Ducks tomorrow night and the San Jose Sharks on Saturday.
The big news out of Ducks' camp is that Jonas Hiller is
suffering from vertigo and so either Dan Ellis or Ray Emery, who hasn't played
in the NHL in 13 months, will start tomorrow night against the Rangers. Emery had been playing in Russia before
joining the Ducks and has been known for his erratic play and behavior, and
Ellis has been equally inconsistent, so the goalie match up should be favorable
for the Blueshirts.
Like when the Rangers played Minnesota last week, the Ducks are two
points out of the playoffs while the Rangers are hanging onto the seventh seed
for dear life. In fact, with a win
tonight the Buffalo Sabres could bump the Rangers down to eighth.
is buoyed by its tremendous power play, ranked fourth in the league, thanks to
a host of key contributors including Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry, Teemu Selanne, Saku
Koivu, Bobby Ryan, Lubomir Visnovsky, and Cam Fowler. Both Perry and Selanne have double digit
goals on the man advantage, while both of them along with Getzlaf, Visnovsky,
and Fowler have 11+ power play assists. As
with many games at this time of year, this game could be won or lost on special
teams, and needless to say, the Rangers must stay out of the box.
For New York,
the key will once again be to score early and often. Two weekend wins did a lot for the Rangers'
confidence, but they're not out of the woods in the playoff hunt by any means,
so they must develop some offensive consistency. It seems that some of the key forwards have
begun scoring again, but the Rangers still desperately need Marian Gaborik to
begin playing at his top level.
As an inter-conference game between two teams that must get
points, we could see some very cautious play during regulation as each team
tries to assure itself a point by getting to overtime. For the record, the Rangers are 7-2 in the
shootout and the Ducks are 4-2.

The Daily Star and Daily Mail recently ran articles speculating whether Coleen Rooney had had a 'boob job'. According to the Daily Star, apparently 'Wayne splashed out £10,000 for his wife to have a breast enlargement as a present in the wake of allegations about him sleeping with prostitutes'. Whether Mrs Rooney has had cosmetic surgery on her breasts or not, breast augmentation tells us something about contemporary gender relations and specifically notions of femininity and female sexuality.
According to Bordo (1999: 283) the pornographisation of culture and changing media representations of girls' and women's bodies, since the 1950s, has meant that both girls/boys and wo/men have become socialized to expect to see female breasts as 'glorious globes standing at attention even when supine'. She goes on to point out that 'real breasts are the anomaly in visual culture today; it's rather a shock when a naked actress lies down and her breasts flop off to the side. It doesn't look right anymore'. What Bordo is arguing, is that the contemporary 'idealised' and 'sexualised' female body is one that doesn't have 'natural' breasts, and as such, results in many girls and women being dissatisfied with their bodies. For some women at least, such dissatisfaction leads to breast augmentation. Indeed, statistics on plastic surgery in the UK (see link below) show many more women than men undergoing the surgeon's knife, especially for breast enlargement.
