Harley Quinn's Greatest Moments from "Batman: The Animated Series"
TV, Comic Books
It's that time of year again, the time for a million lists, including my 25 Favorite Fictional Females in comics list. Like all years, this was tough. Like all years, I'm never quite convinced I've got the list right, but for better or worse, here we are!
Fair warning, if someone was repeated from a previous year, I often cribbed some of the text from my previous post with some light updates to reflect changes. Here are last year's list and the first list in 2010 (as well as a 10 ladies making a run for the title list) in case you'd like to read about even more female characters in comics. It was a really exciting year and with a promising 2015 ahead of us I'm very excited about where we are when it comes to our progress with female characters – as always things are a bit two forward and one back, but we're making progress! I'd like this list a bit better if there were more indie ladies on it (there are so many that are worthy) but Marvel's push with female characters this past year did a good job of gobbling up a good number of spots.
Like last year, what I found most interesting is how some characters managed to triumph over lack of material or worse, bad material. Wonder Woman, despite the fact that I can't read her book, hasn't fallen much– maybe she's just got so much iconic power that others are helpless to overcome the big shadow she casts? I spent a lot of time when trying to organize my list this year thinking about the characters that I'd most like to see creators work with in new series – that was how I ended up defining where they fell – how interested I found myself in seeing them in new stories. Still, you can't underestimate the power of reading both old and new – Black Widow makes the list this year (finally) thanks to some damn fine work by Nathan Edmonson and Phil Noto, while Big Barda shoots up the list because I took some time out this year to read/re-read all her classic Kirby stories…and how can one deny her utter dominance after doing that??

Inside this episode!
We have a very special guest host joining us for the entire episode, Tim Hanley, author of Wonder Woman Unbound: The Curious History of the World's Most Famous Heroine, also blogger at Straitened Circumstances, and author of the "gendercrunching" series on Bleeding Cool! Give him a warm welcome.
First up we talk about Tim's excellent book Wonder Woman Unbound, an absolute must read for anyone with an interest in Wonder Woman or gender in comics, or even just fascinating comics history period.
Next up, a review of the brand new Storm #1 by Greg Pak, Victor Ibanez, and Ruth Redmond. Then a review of Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples Saga #21. Since we recorded on Saturday, two days into SDCC, we discuss what's been released so far – new book announcements from Image, teaser pages of Finch's Wonder Woman, some movie teasers by Marvel and DC, and a few other interesting bits and bobs. Unfortunately perhaps the biggest announcement relevant to THIS cast, was the Wonder Woman image that dropped later in the day, which, if you haven't seen it, is here in all it's "eh" plus ridiculous heeled boots glory. No dramatic reading this week, but next time, we probably promise!
3 Chicks Review Comics is a podcast featuring female comics lovers and bloggers. Sue from DC Women Kicking Ass and Kelly Thompson from She Has No Head! Tune in to CSBG every other Monday at noon as we review comics and discuss hot topics of the week. In addition to the blogs above, you can also follow us all on twitter as well: Kelly and Sue. Special thanks to Caanan Grall for our incredible 3 Chicks Logo and to Nik Furious for our awesome 3 Chicks theme song.
And I mean that title literally. The definition of "five by five" is as follows: Five by five is the best of 25 possible subjective responses used to describe the quality of communications, specifically the signal-to-noise ratio.
Marvel's "quality of communication" on their interest in female leads right now is FIVE BY FIVE.
It's also a handy way to talk about the five new female-led books they've launched and with the debut of Elektra last week, I can say unequivocally they are all good. And that, is, well, that's HUGE.
Since it's Christmas (whether celebrating it or not) I thought I'd forego my usual Wednesday column for something to do instead. So here are five snowflake templates to print and cut out, each based on a different superhero; Batman, Storm (I used her old headdress, who knows if she's still wearing that), Iron Man (both the old circular chest reactor and the triangular one incorporated), Wonder Woman, and the Punisher (I wanted to make the knives serrated, but my paper was too thick and it was too fiddly).
I was thinking a lot this past week about Young Avengers forthcoming end with issue #15, and how, as disappointed as I am to not be getting that book as a continued ongoing, there's something wonderful about how Gillen and McKelvie's Young Avengers will now exist as a nearly perfect 15 issue run, with limited guest artists, no phone-it-in-issues (which just happens over a long run, it's only natural), one clear and concise vision, and most importantly, no damn crossover issues or messy event tie-ins. Young Avengers will be able to be collected into a few awesome trades, and if we're lucky someday maybe a sweet little omnibus. It will be a great book to put on your shelf and go back to time and time again. Kind of like the wonder that is Nextwave Agents of H.A.T.E. – which I re-read at least once every year – and which stands out in the way that only the "brilliant but cancelled" can.
But maybe these things don't have to be "cancelled," maybe, instead, like Young Avengers they can just choose to be one smaller and more defined moment.
Brian Wood and Olivier Coipel's X-Men #1 came out to much fanfare and awesome critical acclaim. I reviewed it last week on CBR and Sue and I interviewed Wood on 3 Chicks last week as well.
But really, that's not enough. Nope.
In my excitement for and about this title and what a long time coming it is – I think I have truly been waiting 20 years for this book – I thought it'd be a good time to talk about the ladies being featured in the title. The X-Men on Wood's team are some of my favorite characters in all of comics, so I'm pretty excited to see them all here together, kicking ass and taking names.
Inside this episode! A review of Brian Wood and Olivier Coipel's ALL NEW X-Men #1 and a review of Lil' Gotham #2 by Dustin Nguyen and Derek Fridolfs. We also talk about Digital Comics and last, but certainly not least, is an interview with Brian Wood and we talk all things X-Men #1!

Review of X-Men #1 Review – 01:00
Review of Lil' Gotham #2 Review & Digital Comics Discussion – 15:30
Interview with Brian Wood – 38:59

*As always beware of spoilers if you haven't read the books in question! Advance reviews are always spoiler-free!
I started blogging in 2007 and in the spring of 2009 two things in comics caused me to start blogging about comics. The first was the nightmare Cry For Justice promo image from DC in which Supergirl had no head – and you guessed it – that was the primary inspiration for the name of this very column. The second, which is what we're going to discuss today, was the promotional announcement for the book Marvel Divas.
And so today I can't help but compare everything that was the utter fail of the Marvel Divas pitch (which was everything except the gorgeous Tonci Zonjic interior art) with how right Marvel and Brian Wood are getting Wood's new all-female X-Men team so far.
My good friend and fellow blogger and podcaster, Sue from DC Women Kicking Ass has a great new tumblr site up called…well, I'm just going to call it THIS!
The site is all about finding those great moments for women in superhero comics…you know the ones…the ones that leave you with goose bumps, that leave you breathless, that leave you in love. The site is open to submissions from anyone, which is only fair as we all have different definitions of what inspires us from women in superhero comics. And what better month for a post like this than March – Women's History Month.
Inspired by Sue's efforts I thought I'd do a piece about some of the moments that have meant the most to me over my years of reading. I make no argument that these are the "best ever" moments…just that they're the moments that have curled my toes. Which ones curled yours? Let me know, and better yet, submit your own over on THIS!
Word of warning – if you haven't read the story I'm talking about, be careful of spoilers!

I have a simple database that keeps track of the songs being played.
All works well except that when a song name has a single quote, I get an error message.
I looked at a few things like rawurlencode, which is not what I need.
str_replace() seems to be the solution, but how do you code it for my needs?
The php manual does not address this.
Please move to better forum if needed.

Pay attention to New Hampshire
By Michael Contarino
In the 2000 Presidential election, George W. Bush defeated Al Gore in New Hampshire by a fraction of the Nader vote. New Hampshire's four electoral votes would have put Gore over the top. In just 15 months, N.H. the only swing state left in the northeast -- will hold its first-in-the-nation presidential primary. While the Senate and Congressional races here lack the fire of other states (none of the candidates here has run ads to deny being a witch, nor has anyone suggested that supporters might take up arms should they lose the election), what happens here matters.

Bio and Links
My Mother is very much into Genealogy and I enjoy taking photos and playing in my paint-shop. I also enjoy exploring cemeteries and examining older monuments. My mother informed me of this site and asked me to become a contributor. I am more than happy to fulfill photo requests in my area.
Also Nettlecreek Cemetery is where my grandparents are buried and I have been photographing various headstones. I search for an existing memorial page first, if no result is found I have created one based solely on what is listed on the marker. If this is your family and can provide the bio please feel free to contact me for a transfer.
I would like to round up some local individuals willing to put a little elbow grease into assisting in cleaning up Harbour South Cemetery. It is severely overgrown and it is difficult to navigate but there is still some clear stones back there if you make the climb through the brush. If something is not done it will eventually be lost forever. Honestly I have found a few others here in Champaign County that could use some clean up....
Also Please do not use my images for any publication, or resource guide(Web, written, electronic...)without my written permission.

Stevens Cemetery
I am the Granddaughter of Rhoda Ella Decius and member of our family Matilda Bacome Decious/Decius, 1sr wife of Ammon (my 2 gt. granddfather) is buried there as well Amanda Decius/Decious daughter of John. . You have taken pictures of that wonderful old cemetery (which is desperate for some TLC) If I lived there I would be there in a heartbeat, but it is a little hard to pull weeds there from WA State. Would it be possible for me to use the photo's on my "private Ancestry Tree) and in my Family History book that I am doing on the Decius family. It is also sad to note that Matilda's mother Nancy's gravestone is also in pieces, but in a different.
BTW: are you related to the Daniel Neff family of Virgina. Daniel married Susannah Decius, that Aunt of Ammon. I have not been able to find where they went after leaving Virginia. I think Illonois/Indiana/Ohio area but have not found them.

Bodey Cemetery
I photographed this cemetery when I cleaned it up. It was covered in trash and debris. The lady from Goshen took several of the monuments and had her husband restore them and she was going to have them placed back in the cemetery. I photographed what was there at the time. So I didn't miss any, they were not there. I saw a note somewhere where you had a couple of monuments that someone had missed. they were not missed.

Stevens Cemetery
Do you think there is any chance this cemetery will ever be "cleaned up"? I requested the stoen of Matilda Bekum Decious.
I am now the Historian of my Church's cemetery which had suffered some neglect since it was read/transcribed in 1974 - We have done a major overhaul including falling 17 large fir trees, new signing. We are now in the process of taking up the grass and reseeding (and looking for buried stones as we do this.) so I know how hard it is to restore one, once nature gets the best of things. I love old cemeteries and wish I could come back and help with this one.

RE: Silas & Walker Johnson/Johnston
No, I have no documents, or proof, that they were originally buried on private property. All I have are photos of their gravemarkers in Rosedale Cemetery. But it wouldn't surprise me if they were moved, I have found many graves moved to larger cemeteries over time. Sorry I could be more help.

RE: Lydia Ann Stevens McGinnis
That is funny. Some of these old cemeteries are burried right under one's nose!!! Yes, Susannah McGinnis is a relative but not in our direct line. You have the dates correct for her. Have you ever tried the trick of spraying white shaving cream on the stone and go over with a rubber squeegee? It really makes the writing easy to read. Can be cleaned off with water. Thanks for your help. :)

History of the Missionary Training Center, locations around the world
Generally, missionaries would only stay in the Salt Lake Mission Home for only a day or two before going to their assigned areas. If there were delays with visas, the missionaries would serve as guides on Temple Square or work at the LDS Church headquarters.

The LTM in Hawaii was closed in June 1975 as I went through in the last group to
ever go there on our way to Hong Kong. We were taught by native Cantonese
speakers, all female. Little did we know until we reached Hong Kong that men and
women speak Cantonese a little differently and we spoke like girls!
The Hawaii LTM was only used five years, but it was great to be in Hawaii! We were told all Asian missionaries from the states would go to the MTC in Provo and indeed I did teach Cantonese to missionaries at Provo starting in 1977.

The article skips all the contingency plans.
And there have been many as the regular facilities exceeded capacity.
The Women's Gym on Center Street, the cafeteria at the Wilk (and in the Church Office Buildin) and various old wooden buildings on the BYU campus served as facilities over the years.

Wonderful accounting. It does leave some questions: (1) Is that first one in
SLC which appears to have been for limited use as described, still used?
(2) It doesn't say that the Idaho Falls MTC was closed, but surely it is. (3) If a Hawaiian person is going to serve in Hawaii, does he/she go to Provo now that Hawaii is closed? (4) Where are missionaries who will serve in Japan or Korea trained? (4) It is interesting that a different MTC serves Ukraine than the one that serves Russia.

The role of auxiliary monomers and emulsifiers on wet scrub resistance of various latex paints at different pigment volume concentrations
This work is an attempt to study the effect of different latex types containing various auxiliary monomers and emulsifiers on their pigmentation and their corresponding behavior on scrub resistance. The auxiliary monomers investigated were acrylic acid (AA), methacrylic acid (MAA), and itaconic acid and the emulsifiers contained sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS). It was shown that a semibatch polymerization technique which led to smaller particles and sharper size distributions is preferable. The best wet scrub results were obtained by using MAA and SLS. It was also shown that the proper selection of an auxiliary monomer generally depended on the range of incorporated pigment volume concentration (PVC). At high PVCs, AA gave better performances compared with MMA. The reverse effect was shown to occur at low PVCs. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009

Tom Pelissero reports that the Giants have extended tenders LB Spencer Paysinger and OL Dallas Reynolds. Paysinger, 25, is a restricted free agent and will receive an original round tender of $1.431 million. He appeared in all 16 games for the Giants last season and totaled 74 tackles, one sack and a fumble recovery. He graded out as the N0. 23 inside linebacker in the league last season, according to Pro Football Focus. Reynolds, 29, is an exclusive rights free agent, so the Giants were able to retain him at just $570,000 next season. He appeared in just three games last year and played 103 total snaps.

I'm on two student project teams that are pretty much desperate for programmers. We recruit every semester, but get mostly mechanical and electrical engineers to apply (the projects are about 33/33/33 mech/ece/cs). Would a (more detailed) question asking for advice on how to get more programmers to apply be off-topic for SO? If so, where else can I ask?

Our Weasel Of The Week!!
JoshuaPundit on Feb 18 2016 at 4:01 am | Filed under: Weasel Of The Week
Yes, once again, It's time to present this week's statuette of shame, The Golden Weasel!!
Every Tuesday, the Council nominates some of the slimiest, most despicable characters in public life for some deed of evil, cowardice or corruption they've performed. Then we vote to single out one particular Weasel for special mention, to whom we award the statuette of shame, our special, 100% plastic Golden Weasel. This week's nominees were particularly slimy and despicable, but the votes are in and we have our winner…the envelope please..
BuzzFeed Editor Rachel Zarrow!!
The Noisy Room: My nomination for Weasel of the Week goes to BuzzFeed editor Rachel Zarrell this time around. She posted a couple of tweets rejoicing at the news of the death of Justice Antonin Scalia and then tried to cover it up. She then quickly deleted them. She also retweeted a GQ writer who wrote, "Boy is my Twitter feed not sad." Her initial tweet consisted of a party popper emoji. Then she followed up with a tweet mocking the statement put out by Sen. Ted Cruz on the news of Scalia's death.
Well, there it is.
Check back next Tuesday to see who next week's nominees for Weasel of the Week are!
Make sure to tune in every Monday for the Watcher's Forum, and remember, every Wednesday, the Council has its weekly contest with the members nominating two posts each, one written by themselves and one written by someone from outside the group for consideration by the whole Council. The votes are cast by the Council, and the results are posted on Friday morning.
It's a weekly magazine of some of the best stuff written in the blogosphere, and you won't want to miss it…or any of the other fantabulous Watcher's Council content.
And don't forget to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter..'cause we're cool like that, y'know?

When an individual's flooring start to look a bit worn out and they're prepared for a change, they often times want to think of all their possibilities rather than merely replacing the floor with the exact same thing they've already had. Even when they have had carpet inside most of the areas, numerous folks are right now considering the change to Fort Worth Engineered Hardwood Floors if they are wanting to replace their flooring.
Whilst floor coverings are extremely comfortable to walk on, that doesn't suggest they're going to be the proper floor for every person or perhaps each room. There are quite a few benefits of hardwood floors, and that's why quite a few individuals are starting to use it in almost any space of the property instead of the carpeting they've had there. Hardwood floors is actually less complicated to keep nice and clean as well as holds up properly with time. It's also simple for the homeowner to locate precisely what they desire and make sure the flooring fits their personal style and what they may be searching for in their home. It could also help increase the resale value of the house.
If you're interested in brand-new floors for your residence, invest time to think about the benefits associated with wood flooring. You'll be able to learn more relating to this type of floor whenever you go to http://hardwoodfloorsfortworth.com/products/engineered-hardwood-flooring/ now.

Here are a few words from past travellers about their holiday experiences with us. There are plenty more - just browse to the destination you are interested in to read more traveller reviews
Tour guide was brilliant- really knowledgable on tour and helpful for additonal extras e.g. where to eat in evening, what are good purchases and making sure we had safe food and drink.
The tour was amazing with wonderful variety- lovely accomodation and sites seen.
Really positive experience and a great adventure."
Loved it! Russia was a beautiful country, at the same time both very representative of yet very different to Western stereotypes!!
We packed a lot into the few full days that we had, the guides were very friendly and helpful and the tour extras were 100% worth it. We would certainly recommend On The Go Tours and Russia to anyone!"
This was one of my best Christmases ever, even though it was spent with complete strangers miles from home!
The group worked really well, just the right number of people and mix of personalities, but above all it was our fantastic guide Recep who made the trip for me. His knowledge, enthusiasm, patience and timings were excellent.
I was well looked after from the moment I landed in Istanbul, with nothing to worry about or organise because everything was taken care of.
I was on my own yet it didn't feel like that at all, everyone was so friendly and kind to me within the group.
The hotels we stayed in were far better than I expected. A few had pools, all had WiFi, which are things I wouldn't have expected.
There was so much information to take in on the trip and the sites we visited were out of this world. Ephesus was the highlight for me! I would love to go back to Turkey and learn even more about the history.
The pace of the tour was busy but I have still returned home feeling relaxed and slightly more knowledgeable than when I left!
This is my 3rd trip with On The Go and I would highly recommend this particular cultural trip and our brilliant guide Recep.

- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The elegant five-star hotel, located in Tuscany's Maremma region, was built in the mid-1960s as a love nest for Michael and Patricia Graham and it is today part of The Leading Hotels of the World. The home, called Il Pellicano as a tribute to the first time the couple met at Pelican Point in California, was initially a club for the Grahams' friends, but was subsequently expanded and opened to friends of friends. However, a few things remained the same: the pleasure of feeling at home and the glamorous and slightly retro atmosphere. The hotel's discrete luxury and the still-rugged Tuscan countryside attract the international jet set. Today, the cottages and the central building are suspended between the sky and the sea, with large rooms, windows and terraces where it's unclear where the indoors end and the outdoors begin. There are pathways and stairways, fragrant gardens and discrete corners, a restaurant with one Michelin stars and three Gambero Rosso forks, a heated sea-water swimming pool, a spa with a sea view to soothe both the body and the soul, and for those wanting to take a dip in the Tyrrhenian Sea, a white platform with chaise longue and immaculate parasols. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Booking.com, Priceline, Agoda, Expedia, Odigeo and Travelocity so you can book your Hotel Il Pellicano reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

Posted on 07/01/2008 12:25:21 PM PDT by Eepsy
MIAMI (CBS) ― Savvy travelers who think they can get around an airline's new fees for checked bags by just bringing a big carry on may have to come up with a 'plan B'
American Airlines has started cracking down on the size of the bags passengers stuff into the overhead bins.
"I'm very frustrated because I travel a lot," said Corrine Celestine.
Air passengers like Celestine say they're upset that American is now scrutinizing the size of carry on bags and charging an extra fee if the bags are over the stated limit.
"It's really frustrating, the airlines are complaining about losing money, but if they keep doing this, I will try to get where I'm going without flying, I will," said Celestine.
Fellow frustrated traveler Chelsea Link agrees that something must be done.
"This morning I was on Delta, I didn't get charged for checking in two bags but when I switched over to American I was charged fifteen dollars and now if the carry on is to big they want to charge another fifteen, it's too much, too much," said Link.
American Airlines and US Airways, along with United Airlines, were the first to announce fees for a single checked bag; $15 each way. Most airlines specify that a carry on bag must be under a certain weight, generally about 40 pounds, and must meet certain size requirements. If the bag is too heavy or too large, American charges the passenger $15 to check it.
The airlines point out that the policy concerning carry on bags came from the Federal Aviation Administration, not the airline industry. American and US Airways say they add extra staff during peak flying times to make sure bulky carry on bags are checked before they are deemed a problem, thus reducing delays for all passengers.
United Airlines says they have not decided how it will handle passengers with oversized carry on bags and US Airways says they will allow passengers to check overweight, or oversized, carry bags at the gate for free.
Not everyone is against the new fees.
Traveler Catherine Coleman believes the new fees are fair.
"We all want to take more with us than we can but we need to do what's right, what's fair is fair, we have to change our habits," said Coleman.

I agree with this charge. I have been hit in the head more than once by someone rudely trying to stuff an oversized carryon into an overhead compartment.
Nickel and dime you where you are coming and going !
World to you: If you're not rich go to hell.
I will I will I think I think.
it seems these gals are awefully repetitive it seems. :P
It makes their job a lot easier if your right to personal baggage is severely restricted.
And now they get to cut out meal service and drink carts too.
This week the foreign exchange group that I am with flew our students home from their year in the U.S.. Most of our students were forced to pay up to $150 overage fees for their luggage. This is really a problem for many travelers.
great view indeed
Amtrak is great. The only problem is that unless you live in the Northeast BosWash corridor the schedules are very unfavorable. When I lived in Charlotte the only train I could take to NY to see my family departed at about 2 in the morning. So if I wanted to spend a weekend seeing my family I would have to leave Saturday at 2AM and arrive in NY sometime after 12PM. It was just as unfavorable when looking for a train to get back to work on time for Monday morning. In the end, because they have so few trains running, I would only have a few hours to actually see my family before I had to get back on the train again - and spend over $200 for the tickets.
Personally, I would love to see a major increase in intercity passenger rail service in this country. I believe that if it was made more convenient for people in other places outside of the Northeast that travelling by rail would become very popular.
I'm all for limiting carry on baggage.
But when airlines do dumbass things like charge $15 bucks a bag, then what do they expect to happen?
All they are doing is pushing the problem (of transporting bags) somewhere else.
As a heavy business traveler (and paying usually the highest fares), I avoid American Airlines now. I'm tired of getting dealing with the overheads fillup and the longer TSA lines(in terminals exclusively American) as a result
So where is it written that you have "rights" to where your personal baggage goes in an aircraft? personally I hate fat people and carry on luggage idiots jamming everything up. This ought to p-o a few people
I second that 100%!
I for one refuse to help people who cannot put their oversized bag into the overhead bin. If they cannot lift it up there, then they should check the bag, or put it under the seat in front of them.
Another pet peeve are passengers who put their bags in the bins above rows 1-5 and then sit in row 7 or further back (exception is allowed if you are boarding at the last minute and space is readily available).
Yep. Check all the bags. More opportunity to lose them. I don't think it occurs to the airlines that folks want to maintain control of their luggage by taking it onboard because they do such a crappy job of getting it to your destination.
I've grabbed the metroliner at Trenton station, about 15 minutes from where I live, to go down to DC a few times on business. No complaints, and I appreciated the space.
Looked into going to New York by train once. The schedule made it take twice as long as driving, yet cost just as much as flying, and I would have had to board or arrive at around 3 am.
I used the trains in England a ton, though, and on the whole, they were great. I guess that's what population density will do for you :)
Not just that but the idiots negotiating with the overhead bins make deplaning a 30 minute affair rather than 5 minutes, all so THEY can save time at baggage claim.
count me in ;)
I fly at least twice a month and haven't noticed that removing luggage from the overhead causes any delay deplaning. Methinks you exaggerate greatly.
When I last flkew on Memorial Day weekend, some guy was trying to stuff his bag in the overhead. He was doing everything he could to get it in and the overhead closed. Finally the stewardess squeezed by us all ( yumm ) and took the bag to be stored in baggage. The guy was griping but she wan't putting up with it.
That's exactly my point. Amtrak is TERRIFIC for people who live and travel within the Northeast corridor. But for people who don't live in the Northeast (between Boston and Washington DC) it is completely impractical. There are very, very few trains that even pass through the station nearest to you, and when they do come it is usually at a time like 2:00 in the morning. Then it takes even longer than it would be to drive, and is more expensive than it would be to fly. For anyone who lives outside the Northeast Amtrak is generally nothing more than a curiousity one might ride just to see what it is like, but unfortunately it is far from being a convenient, affordable alternative to driving or flying. I would love to see this change though.
On the one hand, you know airlines as a group have had the bag charge idea on the books for years, just waiting for a reason to implement it. American is leading them all, but if they pull it off, all major hub airlines might eventually follow.
On the other, they really are experiencing huge cost increases due to fuel costs, and have to make the money up somewhere. This model allows them to avoid raising actual ticket prices, though with 2 bags round trip being 80 bucks, this might be argued to be deceptive in terms of overall cost to the traveler.
The Hell you say!! Someone on FR exaggerating? I don't believe it :o
I'd love to do this trip one day.
Saw a travel program on it, and I've been daydreaming ever since....
Beer goggles used to take that picture?
Amtrak loses whole cars.
I'm really torn on this one.
On the one hand, I oppose additional fees of any kind.
On the other hand I really, really want the airlines to enforce the carry-on size rules.
My 85 yr old MIL is flying today, she told my son who is with her that there was an extra 500 dollar charge on overweight luggage! LOL
My son told her that if that was the case, they'd only take a few things and buy new stuff when they got there.
Is that really Amtrak? Looks more like the station in Oslo (but it's been a few years).
The nearly hour's wait before the luggage from my flight STARTED to be offloaded onto the carousel, trip before last, did it for me.
Needed a new garment bag anyway, found one perfectly sized for carry-aboard, rethought clothing/packing and it worked fine for a week-long trip (with suit for one evening).
I'll bet that was not on American or Delta, the "yumm" factor is darn near zero.
Awwwwwwww.......poor widddle babies.
I can't stand people who get around checking their bags by using huge carry-ons anyway.
I'm talkin' about YOU, Mr. America. That bag that has 10 days of vacation clothes....that's not a carry-on.
Those folks fussing about the extra charge are gonna have to just suck it up! It's annoying having to deal with their oversized carry ons. If it doesn't fit the box they have at the check-in desk, it shouldn't be brought on. There is only so much overhead storage, and each passenger should be able to put his or her bag in the overhead, if they have one, without the space being taken up by someone else's giant bag.
It's all about the price of jet fuel; hence, it's all about weight. Weight is weight, whether it's checked baggage, carry-on baggage, or passengers.
If it were up to me, I'd weigh each passenger and his/her luggage (checked or carry-on), and base the ticket price on total weight. Some sort of volume restrictions would be needed as well (you can't let passengers bring 10-foot cubical boxes, even empty), but weight should be the primary determinant.
True, and if I didn't have to worry about the TSA taking home anything they wanted out of my checked luggage, I'd be happy to leave the carryon bins empty.
The airlines have always had a bag fee. Before it just was figured into the total price of a ticket.
Have they discounted tickets now to reflect this separation of charges?
My boss just got back from a vacation and said the baggage fee for checked bags just had everyone carrying on instead. It slowed down boarding and delayed their flights.
If they are serious about the baggage fee they have to do something about oversized carry-ons.
All the theft in the airlines could be stopped in 24 hours if they video taped the back area, searched the thieves...er employees in baggage, handling, TSA and stealing and prosecuted thieves under FEDERAL law with minimum mandatory of 10 years with 15 years for theft greater than $1000.
I avoid flying as much as possible now. If it's more than a 10 hour drive I'll fly, otherwise why bother with the hassle.
There you go! They can fly themselves anywhere they want to go, and pack as many bags as they can fit in their little planes.
