Every drop of my pure Texan blood is incensed at the recent events in Colorado and Texas.
Colorado's prison chief, Tom Clements, assistant Kaufman County (Texas) prosecutor Mark Haase and now the Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland, and his wife Cynthia, dead by the hands of thugs connected to prison gangs.
To list just a few of the gangs: Aryan Brotherhood, Mexican Mafia, Black Vanguard, Texas 7 and MS-13.
In a civil environment, these people were unable to function as decent people with real jobs and the ability to abide by what society has established as norms.
Most, if not all, could never fit in with the old and proven precept that if you work hard and honor your neighbor, life can, and will, have its rewards.
Rather than belonging to a church, VFW or even the local YMCA, these cowards choose to become gang members because they've never belonged to anything else in their lives.
They, like a pack of wolves, can only exist when they are members of a gang that perverts what society has established as the requisite for membership in a civilized world.
I believe there is a simple solution to this underworld of prison gangs: Pair the rival gang members in the very prison cells they seek to dominate and control.
This plan could actually help with prison overcrowding as well.

This may be a naive question, so I apologize in advance...Do any of you have children that started babbling/talking late and later regressed? Or does a child that later regresses usually start developing speech on time?
Also, do children with autism that have a speech delay usually have a receptive and expressive delay or is it common for them to have great receptive language and gesturing/nonverbal communication, but be delayed just in expressive language?

We love Gilded Age's spray-dyed and worn in vintage denim, but it was their newest men's t-shirt collection that caught our interest at PROJECT today. The designer opted to pay homage to vintage car companies with each style, screening the company logo on a desaturated tee and including information on the hang tag (such as the lifespan of the company and what models they produced). He chose lesser known companies—like The Horseless Age, Simplex, and Knox—some of which only stayed in business a few years. We rounded up our favorites below.

Remember Ziggy Denim's FW12 lookbook, featuring paper bag-clad models and body paint? We just got an up-close look at the collection and fell hard for their wild printed floral denim and intense color palette. Upon closer examination we discovered inconspicuous skeletons dancing between the flowers… spooky!
The super playful brand (with fit names like the "super tight ankle biter") is making their US debut at a below-$100 price point, which surprised us after we got our hands on how amazing the jeans and chinos feel. Check out some of the spring 2013 womens' styles below.

Francine recently tried a little experiment with her Agave Jeans (we're in the experimenting mood lately). She tried wearing three different pairs with one top and necklace combo, to see if the classic styles would all work with her favorite top of the moment. The results were three new favorite outfits, and some rave reviews about Agave Jeans' fit and fabrication!
The Fusta Slim Jegging: These are so soft (literally like butter) and versatile. Perfect for summer… these are definite beach pants material, and the button-up ankle detail gives it a bit of a nautical twist. I can also see myself wearing these for fall.
The Paloma Classic Skinny: Before trying them on I knew they had to be amazing, because Paloma it's my daughter's name! But seriously, these super-skinny jeans are an instant favorite. They fit like a dream.
The Tomboy Boyfriend Straight leg: Another pair with super soft, comfortable fabric (and another potential pair of favorite summer beach pants). Despite being boyfriend jeans these have a classic feminine fit, which is perfect for me. Love them!
Stay tuned for more on Agave's latest styles, and don't forget to check them out online!

One day before the new Superdry store opened in Times Square (with plenty of fanfare, AKA free leather jackets), we stopped in to check out the spring collection and have a few vanilla macaroons. The British brand's oversize kanji character motifs were sold alongside skinny jeans in colors like peachy and near-neon mint green. The jeans were vintage bleached and over-dyed, ready for pairing with summer tops and beach sandals. Stop by and grab a pair for a no-fuss punch of color and excitement in your wardrobe.

We stopped by Australia's NEUW Denim showroom for a FW'12 preview yesterday and got schooled first-hand on what an awesome brand this is. One of three designers, Par Lundqvist, has a massive archive of almost 3,000 pieces of vintage denim. He uses them to establish foundations for the NEUW line, alongside every day denim "circumstances". A metal ring is attached to the front left belt loop of each pair of jeans, because he once wore a wallet chain, which broke and left just a metal ring in its wake. After some time, it became a part of his jeans, and eventually part of the line.
Washes that emulate a field worker's sun-bleached jeans (they stay dark blue beneath their belts) and denim that feels and looks like the crisp warm-air dryed jeans you pull off your laundry line in the summer are some of the anecdotal styles we saw. And while the washes are innovative, the inspiration is timeless: music, classic rock'n'roll, old school denim culture. The richly dyed men's line could dress up James Dean or any of the early denim-clad stars of yesteryear (and they could effortlessly outfit today's rock gods too).
The women's denim line is a pretty direct counterpart of the men's line, with colors and design details in place (a dart in the hem, for example). They branch out with a woven-upholstery inspired motif with great texture and rich hues, and an entire sportswear line that screams "super pretty!" without being too distracting. See for yourself!

Use of Mobile Wireless Devices for Voice Calls on Aircraft
This Proposed Rule document was issued by the Department of Transportation (DOT)
For related information, Open Docket Folder
Office of the Secretary
14 CFR Part 251
[Docket No. DOT-OST-2014-0002]
Use of Mobile Wireless Devices for Voice Calls on Aircraft
Office of the Secretary (OST), Department of Transportation (DOT).
Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM).
The Department of Transportation (DOT or Department) is seeking comment on the effects and implications of adopting a rule to ban voice communications on passengers' mobile wireless devices on flights within, to and from the United States. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) recently issued a notice of proposed rulemaking that if adopted would, among other things, revise the FCC's prohibition on the use of cellular telephones (cell phones) or other mobile wireless devices to make it possible for aircraft operators to permit passengers to make or receive calls on-board aircraft. FCC's proposal to revise its rules was prompted by the availability of new technology and would provide the benefit of expanded access to mobile wireless services on-board aircraft, including data, text and voice services. See However, under the Department's aviation consumer protection authority, we are seeking comment on whether voice calls on aircraft constitute an unfair practice to consumers pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 41712, and/or are inconsistent with adequate air transportation pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 41702, and if so whether such calls should be banned or restricted (e.g., not allow voice calls at night time).
Comments should be filed by March 26, 2014. Late-filed comments will be considered to the extent practicable.
You may file comments identified by the docket number DOT-OST-2014-0002 by any of the following methods:
Instructions: You must include the agency name and docket number DOT-OST-2014-0002 or the Regulatory Identification Number (RIN) for the rulemaking at the beginning of your comment. All comments received will be posted without change to , including any personal information provided.
Privacy Act: Anyone is able to search the electronic form of all comments received in any of our dockets by the name of the individual submitting the comment (or signing the comment, if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.). You may review DOT's complete Privacy Act statement in the Federal Register published on April 11, 2000 (65 FR 19477-78), or you may visit .
Docket: For access to the docket to read background documents and comments received, go to or to the street address listed above. Follow the online instructions for accessing the docket.

Supplementary Information
The Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) have distinct areas of responsibilities with respect to the use of cell phones or other mobile devices for voice communications on aircraft. In general, as explained below, the FCC has authority over various technical issues, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) which is a component of DOT has authority over safety issues, and DOT's Office of the Secretary (OST) has authority over aviation consumer protection issues.
FCC has responsibility over various technical issues—e.g., whether cell phones or other mobile devices used during flight would interfere with cellular networks on the ground and should continue to be banned for this reason or whether technological advances have resolved those concerns and FCC should revise its rules to enable the airlines to seek authorization to provide a service that would allow passenger use of such devices during flight. (1)
Pursuant to its aviation safety oversight authority in 49 U.S.C. 106(f) and 44701(a), DOT's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has authority over whether Portable Electronic Devices (PEDs) using cellular technology can be safely used on aircraft. Pursuant to FAA guidance, InFO 13010, "Expanding the Use of Passenger Portable Electronic Devices (PED)," (2) in order to allow passengers to use portable electronic devices aircraft operators must first make a determination that passenger PEDs used on board their aircraft will not cause interference with the navigation or communication systems. This determination includes assessing the risks of potential cellular-induced avionics problems. (3) Expanding passenger PED use requires an aircraft operator to revise applicable policies, procedures, and programs, and to institute mitigation strategies for passenger disruptions to crewmember safety briefings and announcements and potential passenger conflicts.
DOT's Office of the Secretary (OST) has the authority under its aviation consumer protection authority to determine whether permitting voice calls on aircraft is an unfair practice to consumers, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 41712, or would be so disruptive as to be inconsistent with adequate air transportation, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 41702. The scope of this ANPRM is to gather information that will help DOT conclude whether or not such determinations might be warranted under the provisions cited above. This ANPRM is not seeking comment on the technical or safety aspects of voice communications, which fall under the regulatory authority of the FCC and the FAA, respectively. It is important to note that, if DOT does eventually determine that permitting voice calls is a practice that is unfair or that is inconsistent with adequate air transportation, one possible outcome is that providing passenger voice call service will not be permitted on any U.S. passenger flights.
FCC and Cellular Usage Issues
Currently the FCC's rules prohibit the use of airborne cellular telephones (specifically those using the 800 MHz frequency) and the use of Specialized Mobile Radio (SMR) handsets while airborne. (4) The cell phone ban was adopted in 1991 based on the threat of harmful interference from airborne use of cellular phones to terrestrial cellular networks. The SMR handset rule was adopted based on the same rationale—to prevent harmful interference with land-based operations. (5)
Regarding other airborne broadband access, in 1990 the FCC allocated four megahertz of spectrum for commercial Air-Ground Radiotelephone Service, leading to the deployment of seat-back phones on aircraft. (6) And, since the 1990s, airlines have been permitted to use mobile satellite service (MSS) spectrum to provide data service. (7) Also, starting in 2001, the FCC authorized certain parties on an ad hoc basis to use Fixed Satellite Service spectrum to provide broadband connectivity to airborne aircraft. (8) In 2005, the FCC cleared the way for airlines to begin offering Wi-Fi. (9)
Since the adoption of the FCC's ban on the use of cell phones during flight, there has been a proliferation of cell phones, smart phones, and other PEDs, leading to a significant increase in consumer demand for broadband connectivity on board aircraft and the number of passengers using PEDs during flight. (10) The FAA recognized as much when it announced on October 31, 2013, that it had determined that airlines could safely expand passenger use of PEDs during all phases of flight and issued Information for Operators (InFO 13010, "Expanding Use of Passenger Portable Electronic Devices (PED)." (11) The FAA did not address passenger use of voice communication using cellular technology enabled devices in the expanded PED policy because of FCC's existing ban on use of cell phones during flight.
In light of the technical viability of and increasing public interest in using mobile communication services on aircraft in flight, on December 12, 2013, the FCC issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) proposing to revise outdated rules and to adopt a consistent regulatory framework that would allow airlines, subject to application of FAA and DOT regulations, to choose whether to enable mobile communications services using an Airborne Access System. (12) In pertinent part, the FCC's NPRM proposes to harmonize its regulations governing the operation of mobile devices on aircraft across all commercial mobile spectrum bands, and to allow mobile communication services on aircraft only if managed by Airborne Access Systems. (13) The FCC's proposal reiterates that the FAA must certify the Airborne Access Systems, (14) and would permit mobile wireless device operations only on aircraft traveling more than 10,000 feet above the ground. (15)
The FCC's proposal makes clear that it is not proposing a mandate for airlines to permit any new airborne mobile services; rather, the FCC is proposing to revise current prohibitions on the operation of wireless devices on aircraft to provide the airlines with a regulatory path for offering their passengers additional airborne mobile broadband services across licensed commercial spectrum bands. The FCC states that its NPRM is "technology-neutral," in that it does not propose to limit the use of mobile communications to non-voice applications; rather it states that any modifications would be at the discretion of individual airlines, in addition to any rules or guidelines adopted by the FAA or OST. (16) The FCC proposal explains that the Airborne Access Systems will provide airlines with the flexibility to deploy or not deploy all mobile communications services. For instance, an airline could program the new equipment to block voice calls while permitting texting, email, and Web surfing. (17)
FAA and Cellular Usage Issues
As stated above, even if the FCC determines that cell phones or other mobile devices used during flight would not interfere with cellular networks and revises its ban, FAA safety regulations would still apply. The FAA is responsible for determining whether cellular technology can safely be used on aircraft. Any installed equipment such as Airborne Access Systems would be subject to FAA certification, just like any other piece of hardware. In addition, the aircraft operator would have to determine that the use of this system will not interfere with the navigation and communications systems of the particular type of aircraft on which it will be used before any restrictions are lifted.
We understand that today a number of foreign air carriers allow the use of passenger cellular telephones with on-board cellular telephone base stations (picocells). We solicit comment from these carriers and from passengers who have flown on these carriers regarding their flight experiences. More specifically, to what extent have passengers used their cell phones for voice communications on airplanes that are equipped for cell phone communications? Have the air carriers received passenger comments or complaints related to cell phone voice communications? If so, what comments or complaints have been received? If complaints or issues were reported, did these issues rise to the level in which they would be considered to be an unfair practice to consumers, and/or inconsistent with adequate transportation pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 41712 and 49 U.S.C. 41702? If DOT were to make such a determination (that voice calls are unfair and/or inconsistent with adequate transportation), foreign air carriers may be subject to these rules. What would be the economic impact of such a requirement?
On October 31, 2013, the FAA announced, based on the report of the PED Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC), that it had determined that airlines could safely expand passenger use of PEDs during all phases of flight. Cell phones were excluded from the scope of the ARC's report because of the FCC's rules prohibiting airborne calls using cell phones. In its announcement the FAA stated that passengers with PEDs with cellular capabilities must continue to disable those capabilities during flight (i.e., cellular service turned off).
Prior to the formation of the ARC, the FAA, on August 31, 2012, issued a Notice of Policy, requesting comment on current policy and guidance regarding passenger use of PEDs on-board aircraft. (18) The Notice sought comment on several items including passenger perspectives on PEDs, and asked:
The Association of Flight Attendants filed a comment and replied that voice over internet or cellular broadband should be banned to reduce in-flight disruptions, noting that most flight attendants and travelers find objectionable the possibility of numerous simultaneous voice calls. (20) Delta Air Lines also filed a comment stating that 64 percent of its passengers indicated that the ability to make phone calls in flight would have a negative impact on the onboard experience. (21)
Office of the Secretary and Cellular Usage Issues
In addition to the FAA's safety responsibilities, the Department (Office of the Secretary, Office of Aviation Enforcement and Proceedings) has the authority and responsibility to protect consumers from unfair or deceptive practices in air transportation under 49 U.S.C. 41712. Using this authority, the Department has found acts to be "unfair" if they are harmful to passengers but could not be reasonably avoided by passengers. For example, the Department relied upon section 41712 and its "unfair" practice component when promulgating the "Tarmac Delay Rule," (22) 14 CFR 259.4, in which the Department addressed problems consumers face when aircraft sit for hours on the airport tarmac. (23) In doing so, the Department considered the harm to the consumer and the fact that the practice was unavoidable by the consumer. The Department concluded that regulatory action was necessary and that a three-hour time limit is the maximum time after which passengers must be permitted to deplane from domestic flights given the cramped, close conditions in aircraft and the inability of passengers to avoid lengthy tarmac delays.
Here, as with the tarmac delay rules, the Department believes that this practice may be harmful or injurious to the passenger and there may not be a way for the passenger to reasonably avoid the harm. Allowing voice calls on passenger aircraft may be harmful because people tend to talk louder on cellphones than when they're having face-to-face conversations. They are also likely to talk more and further increase the noise on a flight, as passengers would not be simply talking to the persons sitting next to them but can call whomever they like. While some planes may already have seat-back phones in place, we believe that most are rarely used and the Department's concern is not about individual calls but rather the cumulative impact of allowing in-flight calls in close quarters.
In this ANPRM the Department is seeking comment on whether permitting the use of mobile wireless devices for voice calls on aircraft amounts to an unfair practice under section 41712 using the test listed above, and whether there may be countervailing benefits to consumers or competition should voice calls be allowed. Further, we seek comment on whether other types of communications and technologies (like seat-back phones), may also be considered to be an unfair practice under section 41712.
As noted above, 49 U.S.C. 41702 gives the Department the authority and responsibility to ensure safe and adequate service in domestic air transportation. As with section 41712, the Department and its predecessor in these matters have previously used this authority to address actions that have harmful effects on air travelers. In this instance, the Department feels that the potentially harmful effect to consumers is discomfort.
In 1973, the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) issued a "smoking rule" under its economic regulations titled, "Part 252—Provision of Designated `No Smoking' Areas Aboard Aircraft Operated by Certificated Air Carriers," which mandated designated "no smoking" areas on commercial flights. (24) The rule predated a Congressional ban on smoking on scheduled flights. In the preamble to the rule, the CAB cited a joint study by the FAA and the then Department of Health, Education, and Welfare that concluded that the low levels of contaminants in tobacco smoke did not represent a health hazard to nonsmoking passengers on aircraft; however, the study found that a significant portion of the nonsmokers stated that they were bothered by tobacco smoke. As such, the principal basis for the rule was passenger discomfort. (25) The CAB relied upon section 404(a)(1) of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 (subsequently re-codified as section 41702), requiring air carriers "to provide safe and adequate service, equipment and facilities," as well as section 404(a)(2), requiring air carriers to establish, observe, and enforce "just and reasonable . . . practices" as its statutory authority for this rule. While the initial 1973 determination may have been based primarily upon passenger discomfort issues, it is important to note that in more recent actions (statutory ban on smoking aboard aircraft in 49 U.S.C. 41706 and the regulatory ban in part 252 on smoking tobacco products), health risks were among the concerns upon which these actions were based. Through this ANPRM we seek to explore whether the potential for voice communications on mobile wireless devices would necessitate rulemaking pursuant to our authority to ensure adequate service.
During the past two months, the Department's Aviation Enforcement Office has received more than 90 consumer comments from the public expressing dissatisfaction over the possibility of permitting in-flight voice calls, and no comments in support of such calls. (26) In addition to the consumer comments noted above, some entities have made public statements in the media indicating various positions on the issue of voice calls. The Association of Flight Attendants released a statement opposing voice calls, stating: "As the last line of defense in our nation's aviation system, flight attendants understand the importance of maintaining a calm cabin environment, and passengers agree." (27) Similar views were expressed by several U.S. airlines. Delta Air Lines publicly stated it will not permit voice calls regardless of what the government allows, citing "overwhelming sentiment" to keep the ban in place. (28) JetBlue Airways and United Airlines have also indicated that they intend to keep the ban on calls in place. (29) In addition, legislation has been introduced in the House of Representatives and Senate to address the concern over in-flight voice calls. On December 12, 2013, Senator Diane Feinstein and Senator Lamar Alexander introduced legislation, titled Commercial Flight Courtesy Act, (30) to ban cell phone conversations on commercial airline flights, but permit the use of texting and other electronic communication, pending FCC approval. That same week, Rep. Bill Shuster introduced a bill, Prohibiting In-Flight Voice Communications on Mobile Wireless Devices Act of 2013, (31) to prohibit in-flight voice communications, but permit other types of electronic communication.
The concerns raised by the public, airlines, flight attendants, and members of Congress regarding the possibility of in-flight voice calls on aircraft have prompted the Department to issue this advance notice of proposed rulemaking seeking comment on use of mobile wireless devices for voice calls on aircraft. Permitting voice calls in an enclosed cabin space has the potential, according to comments the Department received, to drastically alter the flying public's experience.
Unlike other public environments, the option to remove oneself from the disruption, inconvenience, and/or nuisance of listening to someone else's phone call does not appear to exist on an airplane. Further, the Department believes that the possibility of cumulative impact of having a large number of passengers talking on their cell phones increases the level of passenger discomfort. The Department seeks comment, described more specifically below, on whether it would be feasible to create "quiet sections" as exist on Amtrak trains and in other public places, or to issue guidelines on when airlines should disable passenger voice communication technology at certain times or under certain circumstances (i.e., at night time, on flights of a certain length, etc.) . While the Department does not oppose the use of cell phones and other mobile devices for mobile wireless data services, such as sending and receiving text messages and email, there is concern that the pervasiveness of in-flight voice calls could create an oppressive environment for passengers, especially for those on long-haul flights. We note that we are not considering the inclusion of seat-back phones or other phones installed on aircraft in a proposed ban. While passengers are able to make voice calls in-flight through such phones, the service is usually relatively expensive, sparingly used, and to our knowledge have been in use for years largely without incident. We are concerned about the cumulative impact of allowing in-flight calls across our national aviation system, rather than individual calls which may be seen as "petty annoyances."
As we consider whether the passenger experience would be so disrupted by in-flight calls that to permit those calls would be an "unfair" practice and/or render the service provided "inadequate," we seek comment on the following issues. The most helpful comments reference a particular part of the proposal, explain the reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data as well as cost and benefit information.
1. Is it necessary for the Department to propose a rule to deem passenger voice communications as an unfair practice, and ban voice communications on passengers' mobile wireless devices on flights conducted under 14 CFR Part 91 Subpart K (fractional ownership programs), Part 121 (generally, scheduled airlines and charter operators of large aircraft), Part 125 (operations with aircraft having 20 or more passenger seats where common carriage is not involved), Part 129 (foreign air carriers), and/or Part 135 (commuter, on demand and air-taxi operations) within, to and from the United States. If so, on what basis is there a need for this regulation? We note that when in the airspace of a foreign country, a U.S. aircraft operator may allow the use of PEDs only if it is consistent with that country's rules.
2. Information on the possible benefits of allowing voice communications on passengers' mobile wireless devices on flights conducted under 14 CFR Part 91 Subpart K (fractional ownership programs), Part 121 (generally scheduled airlines and charter operators of large aircraft), Part 125 (operations with aircraft having 20 or more passenger seats where common carriage is not involved), Part 129 (foreign air carriers), and/or Part 135 (commuter, on demand and air-taxi operations) within, to and from the United States. Are there airlines that would opt to provide this service to passengers, should the opportunity arise? Are there passengers or passenger groups that would like to be allowed to use their mobile devices for voice communications while in flight (e.g., anytime, for important business or personal calls, emergencies)? Whether or not the Department should refrain from issuing a notice of proposed rulemaking on this topic and instead allow the airlines to develop individual policies.
3. Whether a proposed ban should include all in-flight voice communications on mobile wireless devices regardless of whether the mode is through an Airborne Access System, Wi-Fi, or satellite. If so, why?
4. Whether a proposed ban should include exceptions for charter flights, or at least certain charter flights such as single entity charters. If so, why?
5. Whether a ban if adopted should define `mobile wireless devices.' The House bill, Prohibiting In-Flight Voice Communications on Mobile Wireless Devices Act of 2013, defines mobile wireless devices as any portable wireless telecommunications equipment utilized for the transmission or reception of voice data. We would consider this definition to include: Cellular handsets, computers, tablets, electronic games, and any other device that uses radio links to establish a voice call with another party or parties.
6. Whether the Department should consider text-to-speech technologies as an unfair practice under 49 U.S.C. 41712, and/or inconsistent with adequate transportation pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 41702. We seek comment on the benefits or costs of including text-to-speech technologies if the Department determines that in-flight voice communications should be banned or restricted as an unfair practice. In the alternative, we seek comments on the benefits or costs of excluding these technologies from a proposed ban. We also seek comment on whether the Department should consider an exemption from any ban on text-to speech voice applications for systems aimed at facilitating/improving accessibility for passengers with disabilities. The most helpful comments explain the reason or basis for any recommended change, and include supporting data.
7. Whether a proposed ban on voice communications on passengers' mobile wireless devices should not apply prior to the aircraft door closing for departures or after the aircraft door opens for arrivals as this is already permitted today. In other words, whether a proposed ban should begin when the aircraft door closes and is about to take off and end when the aircraft lands and the aircraft door opens. We solicit any additional comments or considerations regarding the duration of the ban on board an aircraft.
8. If the Department issues a notice of proposed rulemaking to ban in-flight voice communications, should that proposed rule account for any of the following considerations:
a. Whether the Department should consider permitting exceptions to the in-flight voice communications ban such as for personal, passenger-related emergencies. If so, how would those be defined?
b. Whether the Department should exempt from the ban any crewmember (where FAA regulations permit), any Federal law enforcement officer, Federal Air Marshal, FAA Aviation Safety Inspector (ASI), or National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Investigator, conducting official business.
9. The impact on the flying public of permitting in-flight voice communications. What specifically could be harmful, disruptive, or injurious to the flying public (e.g., impact of allowing in-flight voice calls on some passengers' productivity as they work during a flight)? What could be beneficial?
10. Comments on the possible utility of a quiet zone or a talking zone, for passengers to avoid having to listen to in-flight calls. Is a physical structure (i.e., some kind of enclosure) necessary to create a quiet zone? If so, what are the possible costs and benefits of creating an enclosed area on an aircraft? Is it technically feasible? What design changes would need to be made to the aircraft? What are the possible costs and benefits of such a change to an airline? How would that affect the load capacity of the plane if such changes were implemented?
11. What other options may exist to mitigate the possible disruption of in-flight voice calls? Is there a reasonable way to mitigate the possible disruption?
12. Whether permitting in-flight voice calls is more or less disruptive than other current in-flight "disruptions," such as in-person conversations between passengers If so, why?
13. Whether the benefits of permitting in-flight voice calls outweighs the benefits of prohibiting in-flight voice calls. Describe the nature of those benefits and provide supporting data where possible.
14. Whether the costs of permitting in-flight voice calls outweighs the costs of banning in-flight voice calls. Describe the nature of those costs and provide supporting data where possible.
15. Whether permitting passengers to use all other mobile wireless communications services (e.g., devices for texting, emailing and surfing the Web) except in-flight voice communications would mitigate the drawbacks of a proposed ban on voice communications.
16. We understand that today a number of foreign air carriers allow the use of passenger cellular telephones with on-board cellular telephone base stations (picocells). We solicit comment from these carriers and from passengers who have flown on these carriers regarding their flight experiences. More specifically, to what extent have passengers used their cell phones for voice communications on airplanes that are equipped for cell phone communications? Have the air carriers received passenger comments or complaints related to cell phone voice communications? If so, what comments or complaints have been received? If complaints or issues were reported, did these issues rise to the level in which they would be considered to be an unfair practice to consumers, and/or inconsistent with adequate transportation pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 41712 and 49 U.S.C. 41702? If DOT were to make such a determination (that voice calls are unfair and/or inconsistent with adequate transportation), foreign air carriers may be subject to these rules. What would the economic impact of such a requirement?
17. Is there any other information or data that is relevant to the Department's decision? We note that the most useful comments will explain the reason the information or data is relevant as well as rationale for any recommended change, and include supporting data as well as cost and benefit information. We note that we are not addressing in this rulemaking any safety-related or security-related issues that may exist with the use of mobile wireless devices for voice calls on aircraft. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) exercises authority over the security of the traveling public. FAA has authority over whether PEDs using cellular technology can be safely used on aircraft.
Regulatory Notices
A. Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review) and DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures
This action has been determined to be significant under Executive Order 12866 and the Department of Transportation's Regulatory Policies and Procedures. It has been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget under that Order.
Executive Orders 12866 ("Regulatory Planning and Review") and 13563 ("Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review") require agencies to regulate in the "most cost-effective manner," to make a "reasoned determination that the benefits of the intended regulation justify its costs," and to develop regulations that "impose the least burden on society." Additionally, Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 require agencies to provide a meaningful opportunity for public participation. Accordingly, we have asked commenters to answer a variety of questions in order to elicit practical information about any cost or benefit figures or factors, alternative approaches, and relevant scientific, technical and economic data. These comments will help the Department evaluate whether a proposed rulemaking is needed and appropriate.
This ANPRM has been analyzed in accordance with the principles and criteria contained in Executive Order 13132 ("Federalism"). This notice does not propose any regulation that (1) has substantial direct effects on the States, the relationship between the national government and the States, or the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, (2) imposes substantial direct compliance costs on State and local governments, or (3) preempts State law. States are already preempted from regulating in this area by the Airline Deregulation Act, 49 U.S.C. 41713. Therefore, the consultation and funding requirements of Executive Order 13132 do not apply.
This ANPRM has been analyzed in accordance with the principles and criteria contained in Executive Order 13084 ("Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments"). Because none of the topics on which we are seeking comment would significantly or uniquely affect the communities of the Indian tribal governments or impose substantial direct compliance costs on them, the funding and consultation requirements of Executive Order 13084 do not apply.
D. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) requires an agency to review regulations to assess their impact on small entities unless the agency determines that a rule is not expected to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. A direct air carrier or foreign air carrier is a small business if it provides air transportation only with small aircraft (i.e., aircraft with up to 60 seats/18,000 pound payload capacity). See 14 CFR 399.73. If the Department proposes to adopt the regulatory initiative discussed in this ANPRM, it is possible that it may have some impact on some small entities but we do not believe that it would have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. We invite comment to facilitate our assessment of the potential impact of these initiatives on small entities.
E. Paperwork Reduction Act
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), no person is required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control number. This ANPRM does not propose any new information collection burdens.
F. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
The Department has determined that the requirements of Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 do not apply to this notice.
Issued this 14th Day of February 2014, in Washington, DC.
Anthony R. Foxx,
Secretary of Transportation.

Dark Souls
you will DIE!!!! in Dark SoulsBy Rodney LEE Score:
May 19, 2012 6:49PM PST
Every once in a while a game comes along and just blows you away.This is that kinda of game, and thats a good thing. Everyone keeps saying how hard this game is,and to be honest it is a tough game.Thats because in my opinion its more like a rpg sim,no maps,no marker telling you where to go and no hints to help you other then what other players say in short but subtle messages.Now whether or not you beleive these messages ,well thats could be good or could be bad,thats one of the really cool things about this master peice.This game is not so much hard as it is real,think of yourself going back in time and think how long you would really last.not very long,well thats why this is one to you will die in thousands of different ways.and you will get lost and,there is no map or very little of anything to help you.And this is one creepy game but is really good,I think the graphics are awesome with a dark creepy dungeons, crazy castles,and beautiful effects.The sound and voice acting are top notch,and scary at times and trust me there wont be no relaxing playing this game,it will keep you on the edge of your seat.The gameplay is well,lets just say its a learning curve,and can be frusterating at times.So the bottom line is this is a top notch very hard rpg wich will take a long time to beat,and you will die and alot but thats not badcause the catch to that is when you kill you get souls,but when you die you leave your souls where you died at,and if you die before you can recover your souls that you died at,then you loose all of them so the question on your mind will always be,should I continue on or go back and save.And with decisions like that,thats what makes this a must buy in my opinion.

Coming off a 2-1 loss to the Nationals on Opening Day, the Cubs didn't exactly have a perfect opener. However, Dempster was strong in his debut, striking out ten, and only allowing two hits over 7.2 innings, even if he did get a few assists from the strong winds coming off of Lake Michigan.
With the new season, came new management—both on the field and in the front office—and with them, a whole slew of new players.
Without further ado, here's your guide to the 2012 Cubs opening day roster.

R. Kelly makes it all about the 'Ladies'
So often in music the name of a tour has little to nothing to do with the tour itself. But leave it to R. Kelly, the most dedicated man in R&B (his "Trapped in the Closet" hip-hopera, 22 chapters and counting, will never end) to really commit when it comes to a concept.
For his latest venture on the road - dubbed the "Single Ladies Tour" - R. Kelly transformed the Milwaukee Theatre on Saturday into a wild party for his shrieking, dancing female fans and some of the dressed-to-impress fellas scattered throughout the approximately two-thirds-full theater. »Read Full Article(4)

'Things Being What They Are' transcends male stereotypes
I'll admit I wasn't doing cartwheels upon learning the Milwaukee Chamber Theatre's holiday play, Wendy MacLeod's "Things Being What They Are," involves two middle-aged, avowedly heterosexual men bonding over brewskis. One of the many reasons I go to the theater is to escape such conversations, which are frequently slathered in cliché when they're not conducted in guttural utterances.
But as MacLeod's smartly written, warm and funny play makes clear, such stereotyping isn't fair to men, and it certainly isn't fair to this moving and entertaining production, which marks the talented Michael Cotey's Chamber directorial debut and features winning performances from actors Dan Katula and Ryan Schabach. »Read Full Article

TravelPod Member ReviewsTrumbles Guest Accommodation Charlwood
This was recommended by our very good friends Lisa and Pete. Gatwick for us is a right pain to get to, so staying here the night before our flight was a great option.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
Historical Traveler Reviews Trumbles Guest Accommodation Charlwood
Lovely b & B
We found this b & b on trip advisor, and are we glad we did. It's a super place very clean and homely. Service is wonderful. We've stayed at the bigger hotels at Gatwick, but no more, now we've found this place. In fact we've already booked again for next time.
Excellent B & B
Stayed for one night at Trumbles before travelling from Gatwick. Lovely room, Clean, well decorated. Owners friendly and helpful,Good breakfast. Have already recommended to friends and family.
Fantastic little B&B
Booked a stay here in December after reading the reviews on Trip Advisor and it definitely lives up to its reputation. The B&B itself is quaint in a quiet location about 15mins from the airport. The rooms are roomly and kept very clean and tidy. The owner is very friendly and helpful. The self-service breakfast was varied and well planned, its a shame we left too early in the morning for the full english breakfast. The B&B was full on our return journey so we stayed at the Premier Travel Inn. We paid the same price for the room itself, but Trumbles is much better value. Breakfast is included in the price of the stay as is taking and collecting you from the airport. Next time we travel from Gatwick we will be definitely be staying here.
Would recommend Trumbles
We had a very pleasant stay at this guest house. We booked room 1 with the round bath which was nicely decorated and very well appointed, with attention to detail, like the provision of bottled water and cookies on the tea/coffee tray.
The breakfast in the conservatory set us up for the day and the owners were very friendly and helpful and also provided an efficient airport transfer service.
We would definitely stay here again when flying from Gatwick as it offers much better value than the standard airport hotels.
Cosy and comfortable
A really lovely place excellent service very helpful owners.
I will be using this B&B again
Good choice of breakfast food
Spotlessly clean and very comfortable rooms.
Extra heater provided in room as Nov. was very cold
Best Airport B and B yet!
Had a perfect overnight stay here. Lives up to all the reviews!! Don't forget to leave details of your return flight, especially if it is late. The breakfast looked superb, but as our flight was so early a.m......didn't get a chance to eat it!!
An absolute gem
Have just had our second stay at Trumbles prior to flying off to the States for a holiday and will return again and again, whenever we use Gatwick.
We first used this superb b&b several years ago by chance, since when we recommended it to friends who in turn recommened it to their friends and so it has gone on. Not one person has ever had anything but good to say about this excellent establishmemt.
Although it has changed hands recently the new owners of this six bedroomed b&b, have if anything improved it even further. The well appointed bedrooms run out at around the �60 mark or so per night which include either a continental or full English breakfast depending on departure time. Parking is on site at a nominal �2 per day whilst away. And the owners include a free transfer both to and from the Airport in their own vehicle (around 10 minutes away).
There is no restaurant at Trumbles but there are a number of places to eat in the village if you want an evening meal.
The last friends we recommended this place to have already booked again before they fly off on their next trip, next Easter.
If bedroom 1 is available.....book it! if only for the huge round bath tub that is if you can find the bathroom through the secret doors which look like part of the fitted wardrobes.
Brilliant Stay and service
A nice little B + B tucked far enough away from Gatwick to be quite. Nicely furnished rooms, good breakfast and excellant service. Plenty of country pubs within 4 miles for evening meals and drinks.
Offers a taxi service to and from Gatwick as part of the price and also additional hoilday parking for half the price of most multinationals.
Glad we stayed before our long journey to America.
Excellent B&B for Gatwick
I thought this was the perfect place to stay for access to Gatwick. It was a nice sized room and a very roomy bathroom. The breakfast was great and the conservatory was very nice. I enjoyed staying here very much.
Loved Trumbles
I would like to share this lovely little gem of a place with you.
Its called Trumbles and its just outside the village of Charlwood, Surrey.
We needed somewhere to stay en route to another destination, somewhere near Gatwick that would not break the bank.
We found all that we were seeking in this wonderful place.
The rooms were comfortable with every need catered for. The owners, David and Julia Roberts were so very kind and helpful. They will transfer you to the airport on the day of your departure. However, we arrived to Gatwick late in the evening and could not secure a taxi, when I called Julia, she told me not to worry and she picked us up in no time.
Its possible to park your car here for the duration of your holiday abroad.
The village itself is charming, we had a lovely lunch in the Half Moon pub, situated in a quiet lane in the middle of the village.
We would definitely return, even to stay longer and hire a car as the property is well situated for the south coast and many interesting areas to explore.

Stoner Lyrics[Hook 1: IamSu!]
I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner
You can lease a ni**a swag but you don't own it
I be smokin', I be shoppin', I be ballin'
[Verse 1: IamSu!]
(Uhh) I. Am. Su better say it right
How you tryna be a star when you afraid of heights?
I be out, every night, every hour, on the grind
Like a skater taking off, Rocket Power
I'm the man I'm the one, understand where I'm from
People dyin too young, tryna shed a little light
Please pass me the light, buckle up for the flight
Out of space out of sight, out of sight outta mind
Ought to look all the time
Heard all my life that we couldn't change the world
Can't blame me for tryin' (uhhh)
I started off local and took the rest global, I should run for mayor
I'm puttin' on, reppin' for all of my family that's still livin' there
My afro a million, you ni**as say [?]
And if a bear run up on me don't pray for me homie go pray for the bear
Cause rap is a zoo and I'm king of the jungle
I been waiting my turn, I'm tryna stay down, I'm tryna to stay humble
But fuck this shit bruh bruh I'm ill and I know it I lyrically kill my opponent
Played the back for too long not a sack for too long now it's time to deal with my [?]
(uhh) And these people say I'm actin' strange
You say you keep that shit 100 I turn your ass to change
All around the world and back again
In the major leagues this ain't no practicing
[Bridge: IamSu!]
I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner
You can lease a ni**a swag you not the owner
I be smokin', I be shoppin', I be ballin'
I'm a mufuckin' stoner
I feel like Fabo, I feel like
I feel like Fabo, I feel like Fabo, I feel like
(hahaha) Bitch!
[Hook 2: Young Thug]
I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner
I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner
I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner, I'm a stoner
I'm a motherfuckin' stoner
I just put a forty on my wrist just like a boss
I just put ten thousand on my bitch just like a boss
I just came from YSL just like a f- boss
Just like a f- boss, just like a

[Verse 2: Young Thug]
Running that money up, like ya 'bout to start trial
When you beat the case, turn into a stoner child
We don't stand in line, foreign shoes hurt your feet
Everybody stoned, weed, lean, molly
Every time I walk inside the club I see everybody looking
You know I'm a stoner I love drugs and I can't never be tooken
And you can suck my banana, but I won't eat your pudding
So come a lil closer, my bitch won't know ya

How the fuck a nigga think he gone survive on a YSL runway (How fool?)
My glasses are metro no blood off your chest

The Bells were a Canadian rock band formed in 1965 in Montreal. The band had two hit singles in the early 1970s. Featuring South African-born sisters Ann and Jackie Ralph as well as Cliff Edwards, Doug Gravelle and Gordie McLeod, the group formed in 1965 as The Five Bells. Cliff and Ann married in 1967 and Ann retired in 1970 when their first child was born, raising their family on a hobby farm in Warkworth, Ontario.
The Five Bells first hit in 1969 with "Moody Manitoba Morning", followed in 1970 — after shortening their name and Ann retiring — with "Fly Little White Dove Fly", which became a Top 10 hit in Canada. Piano player Frank Mills joined The Bells for a short period from 1970 to 1971, after which he pursued a successful solo career, the highlight of which was the #3 1979 U.S. hit single "Music Box Dancer". Mills was replaced by piano player Dennis Will who remained with the band through to the end. Charlie Clark also joined the band in 1970 as a guitarist and vocalist; he now lives in Saint John, New Brunswick.
"White Dove" was followed up in 1971 by "Stay Awhile", a duet featuring Jackie Ralph and Edwards. Written by Saint John native Ken Tobias, the song became a major hit worldwide, selling four million copies and going to #1 in Canada on the RPM 100 national Top Singles chart on April 10, 1971 and remaining there for two weeks[1][2] as well becoming their only Top 40 hit in the U.S., reaching #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.[3] This disc sold over one million copies before the major U.S. radio stations played it, and received a gold disc awarded by the R.I.A.A. on 27 May 1971.[3] The success led to invitations to perform on The Tonight Show in June 1971[3] and The Merv Griffin Show. In Australia, "Stay Awhile" reached #9.
The band broke up as Edwards departed out on a solo career in 1973.[4] The Bells had three Top Ten singles from their final album, Pisces Rising (Polydor, 1973): "The Singer", "Hey My Love" and "He Was Me, He Was You". Jackie Ralph recruited new members, featuring a new rhythm section with Skip Layton on drums and Will (Wayne) Cardinal on bass and band took on an edgier, country rock style.[5] Layton and Cardinal were also members of Ocean in 1976 and Faro in the early 1970s.
The group has continued to perform occasionally over the years. Edwards and Gravelle both now reside in Gananoque, Ontario, Jackie Ralph in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Will in Mississauga, Ontario.
In the fall of 2014, a daughter of Edwards and Anne Ralph, Jessica Edwards, released a documentary film about The Bells' career and the personal relationships of the group members. Titled Stay Awhile, it premiered at the Whistler Film Festival on December 6, 2014.[6]
