'I paid for her, I can do what I want with her': No you can't saysTom Meagher at anti-prostitution campaign launch
Prostitution: We Don't Buy It
Launched this week in Ireland, 'Prostitution – We Don't Buy It' is an Irish movement organised by The Reach Project, encouraging men not to buy prostituted women. The new movement was launched by Tom Meagher, bereaved husband of Melbourne woman Jill Meagher who was murdered in September 2012 by serial predator and rapist Adrian Bayley, who was then out on parole. With Meagher at the event was sex industry survivor Rachel Moran, author of Paid For: My Journey Through Prostitution (Spinifex Press 2013).
Discussing the men who purchase sex and the lies they tell themselves, Meagher said:
Two years ago I read this document from an interview with a man who had repeatedly and very violently raped a number of prostitutes in Australia. His answer to the question, 'Why did you do this?' was 'I paid for her, I can do what I want with her.'
Ten years later that man was out on parole and raped and murdered my wife.
Hear Tom Meagher and Rachel Moran at the launch (via Irish Video News):
Reports on the event can be found here and here.
It is so encouraging to see new movements like this putting the focus on male demand for sexual exploitation.

The Yankees are flashing their cash, adding Jacoby Ellsbury to a shopping spree that started with Brian McCann.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia is also leaving the World Series champion Red Sox, heading to the last-place Miami Marlins.
And Boston already has lined up a catching replacement in A.J. Pierzynski.
Add in a pair of trades by Oakland, a three-team deal involving Arizona, Cincinnati and Tampa Bay, plus two other swaps Tuesday, and baseball's business season has started to boil a week before the winter meetings.
Ellsbury struck the third-highest deal for an outfielder in baseball history, a $153 million, seven-year contract with the Yankees, who are retooling after missing the playoffs for just the second time in 19 years. The center fielder was to take a physical in New York on Wednesday that he must pass before the deal can be finalized, the person said, speaking on condition of anonymity because no statements were authorized.
Earlier Tuesday, New York finalized an $85 million, five-year contract with All-Star catcher Brian McCann.
There is a long history of stars moving from Beantown to the Big Apple during their careers. Babe Ruth was the most famous, and Roger Clemens, Wade Boggs and Johnny Damon followed.
Ellsbury, who turned 30 in September, led the majors with 52 stolen bases despite being hobbled late in the season by a broken right foot. The lefty-hitting leadoff man batted .298 with nine homers and 53 RBIs, and the short right-field porch at Yankee Stadium should boost his power numbers.
Ellsbury's deal includes a $21 million option for the 2021 season, with a $5 million buyout. If the option is exercised, the deal would be worth $169 million over eight years. Among outfielders, only $160 million contracts for Manny Ramirez and Matt Kemp are more lucrative.
Pierzynski agreed to a one-year contract with the Red Sox, a person with knowledge of those negotiations said, also on condition of anonymity because the agreement wasn't final.
The lefty-hitting Pierzynski and righty David Ross, Boston's backup, both will be 37 next season. With catching prospects Christian Vazquez and Blake Swihart making their way up the system, the Red Sox were reluctant to give a multiyear deal to Saltalamacchia.
Pierzynski hit .272 with 17 homers and 70 RBIs last season with Texas.
Saltalamacchia agreed to a $21 million, three-year deal with the 100-loss Marlins, two people familiar with those negotiations said, also on condition of anonymity because the contract had not been finalized.
Saltalamacchia started the past three seasons for the Red Sox and hit a career-high .273 with 15 homers, 40 doubles and 65 RBIs last season. He hit .188 in the postseason and was benched during the World Series.
Also Tuesday, Minnesota completed a $49 million, four-year contract with right-hander Ricky Nolasco. The Twins, coming off their third straight season of at least 86 losses, also is finishing a $24 million, three-year deal with right-hander Phil Hughes that is expected to be announced later this week.
"This isn't a change in philosophy," general manager Terry Ryan said. "We've always said if we need to do something now we have the resources to do it. ... If we were still in the Metrodome, this probably wouldn't happen. But we're in Target Field. We've got more revenue and resources, certainly. This is a nice opportunity. We need pitching. We went out and got it."
Nolasco made 33 starts last season for the Marlins and Los Angeles Dodgers, going 13-11 with a 3.70 ERA.
Heath Bell was part of a three-team trade for the second straight offseason. Tampa Bay acquired Bell from Arizona and catcher Ryan Hanigan from Cincinnati, and the Rays sent right-hander Justin Choate and a player to be named to Arizona. The Diamondbacks sent left-hander David Holmberg to Cincinnati.
Bell was 5-2 with a 4.11 ERA with 15 saves last season and wants to close.
"I think I have a shot of winning that job, the ninth-inning job, but I see my role as being to come in to spring training and show them what I can do," Bell said.
Hanigan agreed to a $10.75 million, three-year contract and is looking forward to playing for manager Joe Maddon, who's led the Rays to the playoffs in four of the past six seasons.
"The numbers speak for themselves in terms of the competitiveness of the team year after year. It's a great thing they have going," Hanigan said.
After acquiring Jim Johnson from Baltimore on Monday night and reaching an agreement with free-agent pitcher Scott Kazmir, Oakland obtained outfielder Craig Gentry and right-hander Josh Lindblom from Texas for outfielder Michael Choice and infielder Chris Bostick. The Athletics also obtained right-hander Luke Gregerson from San Diego for outfielder Seth Smith.
"It's fun. We've always had a pretty fraternal group," A's general manager Billy Beane said. "We had some spots we needed to fill. I think we addressed the areas we needed to and in some cases I think maybe even upgraded, particularly when you look at the bullpen with the addition of both Jim Johnson and Luke Gregerson. We all feel real good about where we are. The next step is putting it on the field."
In other deals, Philadelphia acquired right-hander Brad Lincoln from Toronto for catcher Erik Kratz and left-hander Rob Rasmussen; and Houston obtained outfielder Dexter Fowler and a player to be named from Colorado for outfielder Brandon Barnes and right-hander Jordan Lyles.

Playlist: Europe's troubles continue, Oct-snow-ber hits the Northeast
Share Now on:
Posted by Mary Dooe
For Marketplace Morning Report, Mon., Oct. 31, 2011
Japan's central bank said today if it's going to help Europe with its debt problem, Europe first has to help itself. The rescue package Europe put together last week is relying on foreign help — a lot of it Japan and China. Well there are still millions without power in the Northeast this morning, after that Octsnowber storm that hit over the weekend. Passengers on a JetBlue plane were stranded on a tarmac in Hartford, Conn. for 7 hours. Many flights to New York's airports were diverted to Hartford, overwhelming the airport's infrastructure. The troubled securities firm MF Global is reportedly in a desperate hunt for a buyer this morning. The company, which is run by former New Jersey Senator and Governor Jon Corzine, saw its stock price and credit rating collapse last week, thanks to heavy bets on European debt.
And here are the songs we played today:
Don't miss out on this 2-for-1 match!

Officials at a Colorado school where a 6-year-old boy was suspended for kissing a girl have dropped the term "sexual harassment" from the boy's record, instead calling the behavior misconduct.
The change was made after the boy's parents and the principal met to discuss the issue.
The girl's mother, Jade Masters-Ownbey, told the Canon City Daily Record on Wednesday that the school district did a great job protecting her daughter from repeated harassment from the boy.
First-grader Hunter Yelton was given a two-day suspension, with a sexual harassment infraction on his discipline record. The boy's mother, Jennifer Saunders, insists the punishment was too harsh.

I'm confused... so there is a re-release AND a patch?? Can I just get the patch and be done with it since I already invested in the title or is there reason to wait and get the re-release?
Too bad we don't get the re-release here though.I should start checking bargain bins for this. Shouldn't be too hard to find.

On the heels of her successive line for Topshop, Kate Moss is already one of the top-earning models in the world (specifically, she's the third richest, according to Forbes, behind Gisele Bundchen and Heidi Klum). Now, The Daily Mail is reporting that she may be about to join forces with none other than Simon Cowell (yes, of American Idol fame) and Sir Philip Green (the owner of Topshop) to form a "global entertainment super-company to rival Disney."
The Daily Mail had already guessed weeks ago that Cowell and Green were in cahoots over something, likely putting their heads and bank accounts together to create a global showbiz and fashion company. (As an aside, the photo of the two of them on holiday in Barbados is truly spectacular.) Moss's involvement stems from her close relationship with Green, who's been working with Moss on her Topshop line for the past two years. The two are so tight that she apparently refers to him as "Uncle Phil." Plus, adding Moss to the mix would have the massive business benefit of boosting the company's credibility within the fashion industry.
Cowell already owns the rights to TV shows he produces such as Britain's Got Talent, The X Factor, and America's Got Talent, and with mega-mogul Green and supermodel Moss on board, the plan would be to globalize the shows and sell merchandise around it. According to The Daily Mail's source, bringing Moss would not only give the project a certain hipness, it would also increase her fortune exponentially -- potentially in the area of £100 million or more. Memo to the top two earners on Forbes' list: Watch your backs.

Last Friday afternoon we were lucky enough to have a visit from our Finlandia Global Brand Mixologist, Pekka Pellinen. He took a break from training London bartenders, advising the Finlandia account team on seasonal serves and entertaining the Finnish Embassy to teach us W+Kers a thing or two about mixing drinks.
He started out by explaining the 4 key elements to a perfect cocktail: something sweet, something sour, a spirit and a mixer, before we were let loose to try it ourselves on the DIY bar.
We were then taught how to make a wood chip smoked bloody mary, a flaming Finlandia bottle centrepiece and to saber a bottle of champagne – definitely an afternoon to remember.
As well as being the purest vodka in the world, the Finlandia range encompasses flavoured vodkas that perfectly lend themselves to mixing. We tried a few of Pekka's delicious concoctions that use them, including the Helsinki Mule and the Fin and Tonic. Here are a couple of Pekka's recipes so you can try them yourselves (no saber necessary):
Helsinki Mule
4cl Finlandia Lime
Dash of fresh lime juice
Ginger beer
Glass: Highball
Method: Flame and build over crushed ice
Garnish: Cucumber stalk and lime wedge
Fin and Tonic
4cl Finlandia Grapefruit
Tonic Water
Glass: Highball
Method: Pour over ice cubes and stir
Garnish: Square of fresh grapefruit
Thank you Pekka for coming in! It only seems right to end this post with his favourite joke – What's the difference between a barman and a mixologist?
A mixologist always wears a silly hat.

The Universal Restaurant in Denver parts ways with Chef Seth Gray
The Universal, a popular restaurant in North Denver known for a menu anchored in the American South, has parted ways with Chef Seth Gray, its personable and equally popular chef who was largely responsible for that menu.
The news was a gut punch to those of us who flocked to the place for what were hands-down the best grits in the city, plus terrific other dishes such as pulled pork sandwiches and cornbread rancheros. The breakfast-lunch place sits on the corner of West 38th Avenue and Eliot Street, right on the border of North Denver and the Sunnyside neighborhood.
I got the news Friday morning — a lousy way to start the day — from a friend of Gray's who emailed me. She said Gray had been let go by the restaurants owners, Steven Sharp and Kourtnie Ray Harris, who had opened the restaurant last summer.
"Things like this are never easy decisions," Sharp said Friday morning. "It wasn't pretty and wasn't easy on either end. It ended badly."

We previously covered the high end Cannondale Scalpel Black Inc, a top of the line XC race bike that comes with a seriously lofty $10,000 price tag. But for those of you on the other end of the spectrum, Cannondale has increased their efforts to provide entry level bikes at a good value. This year, the Trail series of entry level bikes get upgraded tubing and geometry to maximize ride quality.
Shown here is the 2014 Cannondale Trail 7 that comes as both a 26″ or a 29er and retails for $599. One of the most common questions in the Mtbr forums is the age old question of "upgrade or buy new". Cannondale feels that the frames in the Trail series are solid enough that a beginner will be able to upgrade components as they grow and improve as a mountain biker so the "upgrade" route is a viable option with these bikes.
Cannondale also wants to include female mountain bikers in their appeal to new riders, so they have created the Tango 29er hardtail with women specific details. The Tango has a different frame from the Tango SL model which was introduced last year. With the Tango, Cannondale took steps to maximize standover, reduce head tube height and optimize geometry for agile handling (not easy to do on smaller frames). The Tango SL also has nice touches in the paint and finish. The Tango starts at $599 and the model shown here is $710.
Video: Murray from Cannondale shows us the highlights of two of their entry level models, for those of us who aren't quite ready to drop $10k on a Scalpel Black Inc. The Trail 7 is an entry level 29er and the Tango is a women's specific 29er.
2014 Cannondale Trail 29 7
"For racers and beginner mountain bikers alike, the light weight, responsiveness, and value of a hardtail make it the weapon of choice. From top to bottom, we completely geek out on the tiniest details when creating our Trail hardtails and the proof is in how they ride."
- Entry Level model
- SR Suntour XCT-100-29, 100mm, coil spring, 1-1/8″ Fork
- WTB NineLine, 29×2.0" Tires
- Alex DC 5.0, double wall, 32-hole Rims
- SR Suntour CW13-NEX-T102-PB, 42/34/24 Crank
- Shimano EF51 Easyfire Shifters
- Tektro Novela Mechnical Disc, 180/160mm Brakes
- Double pass smooth welds
- Refined tube shapes with SAVE Technology
- $599
2014 Tango Women's 29
"With two different frame styles, both with low standover height and geometry designed for women, the Tango and Tango SL let smaller riders experience the advantages of bigger wheels, without the compromises."
- Curved top tube and 1-1/8" headtube
- Maximized standover
- Reduced headtube height
- Comfortable and confidence-inspiring thanks to great standover clearance and dialed geometry
- Optimized seat stay and chain stay shaping provides vertical compliance for a more comfortable ride with no loss in lateral rigidity
- Double-pass smooth welds
- SM, MD, TL Sizes
More information about the 2014 lineup from Cannondale is coming to their website soon. Be sure to check for news and product info at www.cannondale.com.

Creative Conversation: Ibrahim Moustafa
Welcome to a Creative Conversation with creator Ibrahim Moustafa. Here we give you a chance to get inside the mind, learn some in depth background, and discuss the creative process of some of comics' best writers and artists. In our first Creative Conversation I had the opportunity to speak with the artist behind Vertigo's smashingly good new series, "Savage Things." If the Bourne franchise went down the horror route, you have an inkling of what's in store for you with this book. Ibrahim gives a better sum up a little further down. We talked about first comics, must reads, stories that stick with us as young comic fans, how this new series came about and who would be on Ibrahim's own personal Mount Rushmore of comic book artists. Agree? Disagree? Find out!
MK: So let's start with a little background because in all our conversations I'm not sure I know this: How did your journey lead you to working in comics?
IM: I was always drawing as a kid, and some of my earliest memories are of watching the Christopher Reeve "Superman" movies. Not long after that I discovered the Ninja Turtles and Batman 66 TV shows, and was obsessed with them all. I had and read a few comics as a kid and was always drawing the aforementioned. I got much more into collecting and reading comics when I discovered the X-Men cartoon in the early 90s, and I would hoard those Fleer Ultra 93 and 94 X-Men cards sets as a kid.
I fell out of comics for a long time as I got into sports a bit. And then in high school I was heavily into drawing graffiti art and breakdancing. When I was a Junior, "Smallville" had come out and rekindled my love of Superman. Someone gave me a book called "The Complete History Of Superman" and it had a few Alex Ross paintings in it, which completely blew my mind. I had no idea you could do *that* with superheroes.
That sent me down the rabbit hole of "Who is this guy? How is he doing this? What is he painting with? What else has he done?" From there I found "Kingdome Come" and started going to the comic shop, and that ignited my interest in drawing superheroes again. After a short while I realized that people were drawing comics for a living, and I began a very disciplined, regimented plan to make that my reality as well.
It worked (laughs)!
MK: That's epic! What was your local comic shop when you were getting heavily into it?
IM:The first one I wandered into was a small one-off called Hidden Treasures or something to that effect, but they closed down shortly after. Then a friend that I worked with told me that there was a place called Things From Another World that was literally blocks away from our job. And they became my regular supplier in the formative era of my comics addiction, haha.
MK:They're a great operation out in the Portland area. Other than Alex Ross, who were some other artists that got you jazzed into drawing superheroes and comics again?
IM: There have been SO many, but the ones that have stayed an influence/inspiration regardless of my changing interests are probably Stuart Immonen, David Mazzucchelli, and Lee Bermejo. As I've burrowed deeper into comics and it's artistic masters, I'd say my Mount Rushmore consists Alex Ross, Stuart Immonen, Alex Toth, and Jorge Zaffino.
MK: That's an eclectic looking Mount Rushmore.
IM: It is!
MK:I dig it. Before we go too far off topic: Favorite X-Men character?
IM: Cyclops (I know), Wolverine is a close second, though. You?
MK: I feel like Wolverine is everybody's top one or two but personally, especially since Grant Morrison brought her into the mix I'm an Emma Frost man. Which doesn't make me a "real" X-Men fan in most folks' eyes but it is what it is. What is it about Cyclops for you?
IM: 1) You can like whichever X-Person you want and damn anyone who tells you otherwise!
MK: Thank you!
IM: 2) Honestly, I think Cyclops was the most like Superman, aesthetically, and that really appealed to seven year-old me when I discovered the show; he was the do-good leader, he had red blasts from his eyes, and he wore all blue with yellow and red (laughs).
But there was something about the idea that he was encumbered by his power that really hit me as a kid. The fact that this thing he could do made him an outcast and made his life difficult, but he used it to help people anyway…That always got me.
Also, his mutation didn't cause him to have a drastically different outward appearance, but it was enough to make him an other. And growing up half-Egyptian, I experienced a lot of cultural differences from the kids around me. Questions like, "Why can't you eat pork?" are a lot like, "Why are you always wearing sunglasses?" So, I think that appealed to me about Cyclops as well.
MK: Take that Cyclops haters! That's really inspiring how you were able to have that relation to Cyclops. For you, do you think comics has a special place as far as storytelling in a way that movies, TV, theatre, or other mediums don't quite?
IM: I do, absolutely. I think that there are more opportunities to play with the passage of time visually on a comics page than with other mediums. In comics, for example, you can have a splash page of a scene that is split into four different panels across a single image of say, a park. And each panel can represent the four seasons in a year.
Comics also allow for opportunities to echo imagery from one page or one sequence to another. So let's say you have a page where a character is a child, and they're playing, and they fall down and scrape up their knee. Then, you cut to them as an adult in a few chapters and they're in a completely different scenario, but they go through a similar accident, and you're establishing that they're prone to this kind of thing in their life.
In comics, seeing all of those panels in one page as a whole creates a different experience than film or TV where you would see that happen one shot at a time. You're taking in the gestalt of the moment on a page rather than the disparate parts that make the whole. Symbolism, the efficiency afforded by narration paired with a parallel image to the text, the pacing of a page-turn into a splash. There are tons of cool ways to deliver a moment in a comics page that are unique to the medium, and that's probably what I love about it the most.
MK: That's an amazing answer. Thank you for that. To switch gears a little, let's talk about your new series out which I think definitely displays some of those elements you've so eloquently discussed. "Savage Things" which you draw, and is written by the one and only Justin Jordan, hit shelves on March 1st. Did you and Justin know each other much prior to working on the book? Was it an arranged marriage by Vertigo? How did your collaboration come about?
IM: Justin and I had met here in Portland back in 2012 or so at a great indy comics show we used to have here called Stumptown. We've bumped into each other a few times since then on Twitter, and I've been a fan of his work since I first read "Luthor Strode" but when our editor Jamie S. Rich reached out to me to draw the book he facilitated a wonderful reunion for the two of us. So, pretty much an arranged marriage and the dowry was a super-dope book that I get to draw
MK: I love it when an arranged marriage blossoms into true love and kick ass action sequences.
IM: (Laughs)
MK: If someone asks you to describe "Savage Things," what's been your favorite answer to give?
IM: "Savage Things" is what you get when a bunch of Dexters are kidnapped and raised by the government to be Jason Bourne.
MK: That's maybe the most badass way of summing up a book I've ever heard. Here's a two-parter: What's been one of the most challenging and what's been your favorite thing to draw so far for the series?
IM: The book is full of excellent opportunities to create cool action sequences, and I think that's been my favorite part so far. There have also been a few types of locations I've never never drawn before (a hospital, a power plant, a few others) so that's been a fun challenge.
The most difficult thing has been figuring out how to draw expressive faces on sociopaths (laughs).
MK: That seems like a challenge on several levels (laughs). Can you perhaps tease us about something readers should be super excited to discover in issue two and beyond?
IM: Yes! The next few issues pitt our lead character, Abel, against six of the other sociopathic, trained murderers that he grew up with. So as you can imagine, issue one was just a tease at some of the brutality that these guys are capable of, especially toward each other. By the end of issue three, we pull back the lens and broaden the scope of the battle quite a bit. I'm very excited!
MK: Man, I can't wait to see how you and Justin up the ante! Final two questions before our time's up:
1) For someone new to comics, what are five essential must reads you'd recommend?
2) For all things Ibrahim Moustafa, "Savage Things," and your ridiculously amazing James Bond posters, where can fans keep up with you on social media and the web? (Seriously, his James Bond posters kind of cray cray. Don't believe me, click here!)
IM: 1) This is a tough one! These are certainly slanted toward things that I love, so your mileage may certainly vary.
"Scalped" is my favorite book of all-time. It's a crime drama a la "Breaking Bad" or "The Wire." Anyone can dive right into it.
"Kingdom Come": I read this pretty early on and loved it. There are a ton of references and characters in it, but as long as you know who Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Shazaam are, the rest falls into place.
"The Losers" is a great book if you love action movies with fun characters, a cool story/lots of intrigue.
"Old Man Logan" is almost a companion piece to "Kingdom Come" in that it's a look at a possible future, full of cool stuff and references but mainly if you know the X-Men and the Avengers, you're solid.
"Batman: Year One." One of the greatest comics ever made and a perfect primer for Batman fans looking to give the comics a try.
2) I'm on twitter at: @Ibrahim_M_ and my official site is http://theartofibrahimmoustafa.blogspot.com/
MK: Ibrahim, you're a class act, thank you for being so generous and gracious with your time in joining me in our first Creative Conversation.
Check out "Savage Things #1" now and get ready for "Savage Things #2," on shelves Wednesday, April 5th, 2017. Stay tuned for our next…Creative Conversation.
Please send love/hate messages to Matthew via Twitter @matthewklein316 and on Instagram. Matthew loves all things Batman, Valiant, and pro-wrestling related.

Set in South Africa under white rule, Doris Lessing's first novel is both a riveting chronicle of human disintegration and a beautifully understated social critique. Mary Turner is a self-confident, independent young woman who becomes the depressed, frustrated wife of an ineffectual, unsuccessful farmer. Little by little the ennui of years on the farm work their slow poison, and Mary's despair progresses until the fateful arrival of an enigmatic and virile black servant, Moses. Locked in anguish, Mary and Moses-master and slave-are trapped in a web of mounting attraction and repulsion. Their psychic tension explodes in an electrifying scene that ends this disturbing tale of racial strife in colonial South Africa. The Grass Is Singing blends Lessing's imaginative vision with her own vividly remembered early childhood to recreate the quiet horror of a woman's struggle against a ruthless fate.

In a recent blog on this site, Matt Sheehan suggested that many people who are new to GIS don't truly understand the value of the technology. He suggested several ways to demonstrate the value of GIS technology in the workplace, such as showing people how it can help them perform tasks more quickly and easily.
Another area where more work is needed to demonstrate the value of GIS is in education, especially in K-12. Last year in the National Geographic blog, National Geographic's Vice President for Education Daniel C. Edelson called GIS the "missing educational technology." While various initiatives have focused on how to use more technology in the classroom, Edelson wrote that applications like GIS tools are often left out.

A provision attached to this year's budget would have made compliance with certain parts of the law optional for local governments. Lawmakers scrambled to repeal the provision after an outcry from the public and press.
But Senate Budget Chair Mark Leno says he didn't hear any opposition through months of hearings.
"I never got a letter, an email, a phone call, a request to meet from any advocate on this particular issue that's before us today," he says.
Leno is sponsoring a Constitutional Amendment that will make compliances with the entire Records Act mandatory and require local governments to pay any related costs. Leno says this bill is a stop-gap until his Amendment can be placed on the June 20-14 ballot.
Governor Jerry Brown supports both the bill and the proposed Amendment.

DOVER — The nearly forty-foot tree in Henry Law Park will be lit for Christmas on Friday for the last time.
Mayor Dean Trefethen read a proclamation during City Council on Wednesday, which he said was one of the most unusual proclamations he has read in all of his years as Mayor, letting the public know that this tree, which has been in the park since 1985, will make its way to the North Pole after the holiday season.
"His younger cousin will be joining us next year," City Manager Michael Joyal said.
Trefethen read in the proclamation, that after 27 years, the tree has grown so tall, it can be seen by Santa on his way into Dover each year.
"Santa has asked if it could be donated to him and taken to the North Pole," Trefethen read, where it can be seen by other people around the world.
Trefethen finished reading the proclamation, approving the donation of the tree to Santa Claus, expressing his thanks for giving Dover the tree years ago.

20 Homegrown Street Machine Buildups From Garages Like Yours!
Some guys are completely satisfied to restore a muscle car to factory spec. The enjoyment of working on a classic car has its rewards, whether it's from tinkering in the garage, browsing swap meets and message boards, or cruising on the weekend to the car show. Some go beyond that noble cause, seasoning their pride and joy with modest improvements to suit their individual taste. There is a deep and abiding satisfaction to repairing and maintaining these pieces of history, but for an even smaller minority, that just isn't enough. These guys have a drive that pushes them and their machines into territory that isn't always well trod mechanically or aesthetically. They are hot rodders—trendsetters—and their road isn't usually an easy one. Some of them, as you will see, have worked years and even decades to bring their dream to life.
We asked you to tell us about your project, and you responded with an exciting assortment of muscle cars in various stages of progress. They range from old-school Pro Streeters and high-speed highway machines to hard-core street/strip weapons and cutting-edge Pro Touring rides. Some reflect the inventiveness of a limited budget, while others are fettered only by the imagination of the owner. All of them will be great cars when they are finished. But are the owners of these machines ever really "finished"? Not by a long shot. That's why they are hot rodders in the first place.
1973 Buick Century
Jeff Stott, Independence, OH
Some projects take longer than others to complete—Jeff Stott's '73 Buick has taken 32 years to get this far, and he's still not done. By his own admission, he has "over 300 hours in the car." By our figuring, that's around 10 hours per year. Ever the optimist, Jeff writes that he plans to have it on the road by 2014. Shortly after purchasing the Buick from its original owner (his grandfather) in 1980, he set the goal of turning it into a Pro Street machine. In the time since then, Jeff has worked as a technician at several GM dealerships, and has been in the perfect position to cherry pick many cool NOS parts along the way, including weatherstripping, belt moldings, quarter glass trim, and rear quarter-panels.
Jeff notes that after ordering a custom rear ladder bar clip from Art Morrison, he realized that the largest fuel cell he could fit between the framerails was 9 gallons, so he widened the frame behind the rear wheels back to stock. This allowed him to order a "T" shaped fuel cell from Fuel Safe, giving him a 19-gallon capacity—and he can use his factory rear bumper mounts again. Jeff is doing all the work himself, and plans eventually call for a fuel-injected 455 Buick of some kind.

1972 Chevy Chevelle Malibu
Daniel Sauget, Millstadt, IL
After Daniel Sauget watched too many car restoration shows and got fired up about building something, he saw this '72 Chevelle on the side of the road for sale that he just had to bring home. The teardown on the Chevelle began right away with help from Daniel's son, Randy, and daughter, Brittany. Unfortunately that revealed the trunk was completely rusted out as were the rear wheel openings and the corner of the package tray. Well, at least that certainly made the cutting for the Chassisworks backhalf and Competition Engineering rollbar much easier! Rather than send it to a fabricator, Daniel jumped in and just learned metalworking as he went. Motivated by daydreams of summer cruising, Daniel's future plans are to complete the bodywork, paint, and interior with a Painless Performance wiring harness, Procar Hi-back bucket seats, RJS five-point harnesses, Classic Thunder Road SS dash panel with Auto Meter Sport Comp gauges, and a Flaming River steering column.

1970 Chevy Camaro
Dave VanderKolk, Fennville, MI
As a family man living in a home with a wife and three daughters, Dave VanderKolk can certainly be forgiven for escaping his estrogen-filled environment whenever possible. That escape plan calls for a beeline straight for the world of hot rodding. Dave's hot rodding world not only has a very bitchin '70 Camaro (which he's owned for 22 years), but the friendship of fellow car nut, Mark Plaggemars. These two partners in crime have been slowly revitalizing Dave's Rally Sport during the weekends over the past few years; you may remember Mark from our June '10 readers' projects issue. That was Ford freak Mark on our cover with his '69 Mustang—and now it's Dave's turn for the money shot!
Like Mark, Dave wants a well-rounded Pro Touring car that can do everything well, and that has looks that go way beyond the plane-Jane restomod. There's a lot of custom bodywork, including fabricated fuel filler and flush firewall, and the big prize: a homebrewed triangulated four-link rear with Panhard bar. Dave says every panel on the car has been modified, and the work is far from finished.

1956 Buick Special Riviera
Mike Bradley, West Jordan, UT
Mike Bradley wanted a project that was different and unique from the typical car show attendee's—but what should it be? He had no idea, so Mike spent time looking around and researching to figure out what was perfect for him. When he found this '56 Buick Special in the McBride Motors wrecking yard, he knew the search was over. Surprisingly, it even ran, but the more work Mike did, the more obvious it became that a full teardown was needed. Mike stripped it down to the frame and built a rotisserie to mount the body on for the bodywork. So far, Mike's been wrenching on the Buick for eight years doing all the work himself. He's doing a pretty good job too; he entered the Buick into a car show for the first time in Manti, Utah, in August 2011 and won First Place in the Unfinished Class. Spurred by that victory, Mike's next plans are paint by a friend at Top Notch Body Shop, and full restoration of the chrome by Ogden Advanced Chrome. Most of all he's looking forward to the Buick being: "A great treasure to share with my grandkids."
By The Numbers

1976 Chevy Laguna S-3
Larry Belcher, Yorktown, IN
Longtime reader Larry Belcher has been a follower of PHR's Project Laguna for years, and in that time he's made many great suggestions and provided many hard-to-find parts for our ride, so when we finally got to see Larry's ride, we were excited. Larry's '76 Laguna S-3, however, isn't your typical hot rod—it's not hosed down with a wallet full of mail-order parts or sporting a high-end paintjob. It's also different in the fact that everything Larry has done to it has been to improve its life as a daily driver. There's no earthquake motor, no gluey suspension, no freight train brakes, or steamroller tires. It's all practical DIY stuff. A few of Larry's tricks include '85 IROC bucket seats, '95 S-10 front console, '95 Buick Roadmaster power seat tracks, '76 Cutlass tilt steering column, Monte Carlo rear window defogger, retrofit Twilight Sentinel headlights, and enough used stereo gear to fill a swap meet.
The list goes on. In fact, we're hard pressed to find any original parts on Larry's Laguna—this S-3 is literally a Frankenstein's monster of parts from GM cars of the '70s, '80s, and '90s. When it comes to interchanging parts on '73-77 GM intermediates, Larry is the undisputed king!

1971 Chevelle Malibu
Jason Vendetto, Lake Ronkonkoma, NY
Cars just aren't built like they used to be, at least that's what Jason Vendetto grew up hearing from his father about the muscle car era. So naturally when he turned 16, Jason had muscle on his mind and picked up a '69 Camaro. One wasn't enough to occupy him though—plus for $975 it's hard to turn down a '71 Chevelle. As soon as he saw it he had a vision of big tires and Pro Street attitude. That doesn't mean it'll become a fairgrounds car though; Jason fully intends to drive the Chevelle to and from work regularly and make the occasional dragstrip pass. For now he's just been getting it respectably aggressive looking, but plans in the near future call for a 620hp ZZ572 crate engine from Chevrolet Performance backed by a TH400 and a 12-bolt rearend. When it comes time to tub the rear for the big tires he wants, Jason says he'll make sure there's enough room left for a modified rear seat so his 2-year-old daughter can still come for rides with him. After all he has to start getting her hooked young since the Chevelle will be hers one day.

1968 Chevy Chevelle
Ryan Fultz, Brookston, IN
A 15-year-old Ryan Fultz was riding with his dad in 1991 when he spotted the '68 Chevelle languishing in a yard with a "for sale" sign on it. Eight hundred dollars later, it was his. In the ensuing years it was used as Ryan's daily driver, then repainted, and subsequently upgraded a little at a time. Ryan has done most of the work on the car over the years, including much of the bodywork, rebuilding the original 327—then building a new 383. The Chevelle is no longer used as daily transportation, but Ryan does get out and pound on it every week, including regular autocross outings at places like Goodguys.
If Ryan's project looks familiar, it's because he's taken part in the annual PHR Photo Contest several times. In fact, Ryan won it outright last year, netting him a free set of Nitto Invo tires. That windfall prompted a whole new round of mods consisting mostly of suspension upgrades from DSE. When that's done, an LS powerplant of some kind will take the place of the tired 383. Just goes to show, even finished projects are never finished.

Engine: 383ci small-block Chevy, AFR 195cc heads, Holley 830-cfm carb, Dynomax headers, Flowmaster exhaust

1966 Chevy Chevelle
Jed King, Winfield, KS
For what he has invested into this '66 Chevelle in time and money, Jed King says he could probably buy two nicer ones. That's fine by him though; he's a hot rodder who loves to wrench, so bringing the Chevelle slowly back to life has been his favorite pursuit over the past six years, ever since it came off the road. It's good that he has that level of dedication, because the Chevelle needed pretty much every single panel replaced except the roof, driver's door, and decklid. So far he's handled nearly every single part of the project on his own (with the occasional help and support of his wife, of course) other than the bodywork. Jed is typically a big-block kind of guy, so this Chevelle is his first foray into small-block territory, but with 523 hp and 528 lb-ft of torque on tap he doesn't think he'll be underwhelmed by the performance. The main goal for the Chevelle is to have a good time cruising, but he says he'll have to hide a big grin if he "accidentally" runs too quick of an e.t. at the strip and is asked to park it.

1975 Chevy Laguna S-3
Patrick Tubrick, Omaha, NE
NASCAR-themed Lagunas are close to our heart at PHR, but we can't take credit for influencing Patrick Tubrick—that was all his father's doing. This '75 Laguna clone is, in fact, a '77 Malibu Classic that Patrick bought six years ago as a package that also contained the parts needed to convert it to a Laguna. The goal all along was to do a NASCAR racer clone: "Riding in my dad's car and attending local car shows influenced my decisions. Lagunas seem to be few and far between around here, and I like the rich racing heritage of these little-known A-bodies. I wanted something just a bit different than the Camaros, Mustangs, and pre-'73 Chevelles and typical drag setups," Patrick writes.
Most of the work was done by Patrick, including the bodywork, cutting and radiusing the wheelwells, removing the factory inner fenders and fabricating new ones, bending up a race-inspired dash, forming scratch-built headlight covers, and installing new quarter-panels with the aid of helpful PHR articles. Only the rollcage and engine machine work were farmed out.

1958 Corvette
Larry Hatch, Olympia, WA
He couldn't afford a Corvette in the late '50s when they were new, so Larry Hatch had to just look and dream until the right opportunity came along to purchase a Silver Blue '58 hardtop in 1976. When the Army shipped James off to Schofield Barracks in Hawaii, the Corvette came along, and he and his wife had a great time enjoying the local Corvette club events. It also followed Larry to the Presidio in San Francisco in 1979, and then Fort Lewis, Washington, in 1982. In 1983, Larry took the Vette's body off the frame and went to work restoring, re-plumbing, and installing a nicely built 283 backed by a Muncie four-speed. The body, however, stayed separate from the frame for the next 32 years until Larry retired. He spent the time gathering all the NOS parts he needed, and after Customs Northwest in Olympia, Washington, perfects the body and sprays the Mercedes-Benz 799 Diamond White paint, it'll soon be ready to rejoin the frame and undergo final assembly. "The moral of the story," Larry says, "is to never give up and live long enough to complete the project."

1970 Chevy Chevelle
Randy T. Hines, Port Arthur, TX
The pictures of Randy Hines' '70 Chevelle just don't do it justice. Twenty-two years ago, Randy was outgunned, outspent, and outnumbered when he bought his A-body as a shell for $500. Since then, he's put in a ton of sweat equity, slowly remaking it into a dual-purpose street/strip dream car. Randy mentions that he got a lot of tips from PHR's own Street Sweeper '68 Chevelle—we're guessing we can take credit for the big-block with the Air-Gap intake, COMP cam, Demon carb and custom evac system then!
The big blue bruiser runs deep 11s on motor and dips 10s on happy gas and is very reliable and consistent, writes Randy. He regularly runs the local grudge and index matches, and has even been on Pinks: All Out. The Chevelle has also run NMCA True Street, a grueling test combining a lengthy street cruise with quarter-mile action. Over the years, Randy's had three paintjobs and three engines—the most recent big-block combo arriving six years ago. Next up, says Randy: ignition, carb, and exhaust!

1973 AMC Javelin
Michael Pinto, Kelso, WA
Growing up in a family full of AMC fans, it was just a matter of time before Michael found his own. The first couple of attempts to find a project fell through, and one '73 Hornet turned out to be held together by undercoating, but when he ran across this '73 Javelin that had been sitting abandoned at a mechanic's garage for over 25 years he knew he'd finally found his AMC. The catch was it was 200 miles away with no wheels and didn't run. After a good friend helped him get it home, Michael went to work on the 360 and in short order he had it running again. Video or it didn't happen, right? See it here: www.YouTube.com/AMC310. Since then, Michael has been slowly working his way through the whole car with the help of his AMC-loving dad and grandpa. Right now they're converting to disc brakes, installing new suspension bushings, and going through the cooling and fuel systems in the hopes of having the Javelin road worthy in time for the Mopar/AMC day in Woodburn, Oregon, this summer.

1967 Plymouth Barracuda
Duncan Stoops, Henderson, NV
The motto of a famous luxury watchmaker states that you don't own one of their timepieces, you merely take care of it for the next generation. Such is the case with Duncan Stoop's '67 Barracuda. His folks bought it used in 1970, and he remembers it fondly, writing that he recalls riding on family vacations with his sisters, sleeping with the back seat folded down. "I can remember seeing the blinkers flash from inside the trunk on those trips." When his parents split, the car stayed with his mom, until Duncan got it when he went to college. Then Duncan sold it to dad in 1986, which was followed by the Barracuda doing a stint with his sister in the Air Force. It then went back to dad again when it got a fresh Sox & Martin paintjob before giving it back to Duncan in 1997.
In 2003, Duncan began blowing the car apart one more time to give it the treatment you see here. Although it's "done," we have to ask the age-old question: Is it really done? Duncan says larger wheels and tires, a stroker kit, a new posi unit, trick gauges, and new torsion bars are all in the planning stages. And "no," you can't buy it. Duncan plans to keep it in the family!

1965 Ford Mustang
Lionel Roy, Blind River, Ontario, Canada
Lionel Roy grew up surrounded by his dad's Mustangs, but his favorite of the bunch was a red '65 coupe with a 289. He only remembers it vaguely, but he's always known that he would have one like it someday. Eventually he zeroed in on exactly the right one; 30 hours of driving later he had his '65 coupe rolling shell and an '88 Mustang GT parts car. Having never built a car before, Lionel was a little bit lost to say the least. Lionel says, "with the wisdom and guidance of PHR and Internet forums, I am finally within spitting distance of my goal." So far he has dropped in the 5.0 engine and T5 trans from the '88, installed a full American Autowire harness and four-wheel discs from SSBC, and swapped EFI for a Holley carb. Luckily all the suspension was replaced and most of the bodywork done by the previous owner. Future plans include a dark gray metallic paint with blue stripes, a more aggressive cam, subframe connectors, and a high-end Pro Touring–style suspension. (The paint and stripes, in fact, were completed just in time for our cover shoot.) "Taking on this big of a project has been an amazing learning experience for me," Lionel stated, "and the beginning of a lifelong hobby."

1963 Dodge Dart GT
Mike Toupin, Fall River, MA
Being a Mopar man requires something special—call it an obsessive trait. And if your Mopar of choice happens to be something outside the normal cookie-cutter B- or E-Body restoration, or heaven forbid—you want something that handles, you better be extra obsessive. Mike Toupin is that kind of guy. A mechanical designer by trade, at least he's well equipped to handle building a '63 Dodge Dart—of which there are almost zero aftermarket parts. Ironically, he's probably one of the few hot rodders in this issue who actually does things the old-fashioned way—designing, building, and installing parts on his own.
We've seen Mike's Dart before—twice in fact. He's answered the call for reader project photos in the past, and each time he's made serious progress on his Gen III Hemi-equipped '63 Dart. Mike's primary battle cry—to quote Chip Foose—is to "take the ugly out of it!" Consider it mission accomplished! All he lacks is the final assembly, which he plans to have done before you read this.

1971 Plymouth 'Cuda
Jesse Matlock, Dewey, OK
As owner of Jesse's Auto Body in Dewey, Oklahoma, Jesse Matlock is on a mission to show that big talent exists in small towns. He's a Mopar man who still has his first car (a Satellite). He's owned and restored quite a few '70-71 'Cudas and Challengers, but this time he wanted to do something a little different. What started as just dropping in a 6.1L Hemi and adding nice wheels quickly took off when Jesse enlisted the expert custom help of Dr. Patrick Hagerman at Scotlea Hot Rods in Nowata, Oklahoma. The plan is to rework and modify every inch of the body, from the one-piece, all-steel, removable front end, to the 4-inch extended rockers, full bellypan, molded-in rear bumper, and smoothed rear pan. His car will be all-new and all-Mopar inside and out. "I know some in the Mopar community are going to hate me for 'destroying' a '71 'Cuda," Jesse writes, "But it was pretty rusted out, and I've done the restoration thing—everyone has. In fact, I sold my '70 Hemi 'Cuda to fund this project. To turn a true '71 'Cuda into a total custom machine is usually out of the question, so that's what makes this car different."

1970 Chevy Chevelle
Michael Peltakian, San Dimas, CA
Owning your own professional repair garage—MVP AutoTech, in the case of Michael Peltakian—is both a blessing and a curse. When you work on the cars of others all day long (and sometimes into the evening and weekend), it's hard to find the time and the desire to work on your own stuff. Like the Greek mythological figure Tantalus, who stood in water but could never drink it, Michael works constantly in eyesight of his '70 Chevelle, but only gets precious few hours to work on it each week.
Michael purchased the Cortez Silver Chevelle eight years ago as an opportunistic buy while at the Las Vegas Super Chevy Show. We say opportunistic, because Michael has always been on the lookout for a twin to his '70 Camaro race car. Thanks to help from friend Martin Charles—as well as his two daughters (one being PHR's very own Laura Peltakian)—Michael is in the final assembly stages of his restomod Chevelle.

1970 Chevy Monte Carlo
Mike Brush, Raytown, MO
Believe it or not, Monte Fuego, as it's known, was near ready for the junkyard after decades of hard use when Chip Foose and the Overhaulin' crew got their hands on it in 2004 and turned it into one the nicest Montes on the planet. Unfortunately, some people just don't appreciate nice things that they didn't have to work for; rather than receiving proper care, the owner continued to treat the Monte like a cheap rental car with no maintenance for 25K miles. When Mike Brush found it on Craigslist in 2010 it had body damage on every panel, the custom bumpers were dented and cracked, the custom interior was filthy, and the supercharged ZZ4 had three broken pistons and a bunch of collapsed rings. Mike couldn't bear to see the Monte fallen from grace like that and brought it home for one more chance. Despite Overhaulin', the neglect has meant Mike had to tear everything down and start from scratch to get the Monte back into respectable condition. So far the body is straight again, the interior is fresh, and the rebuilt drivetrain is set to drop in. With some luck, Mike should be cruising in Monte Fuego this summer.

1968 Dodge Charger
Pete Krehbiel, Chicago, IL
Not since Alan Johnson built the g-Force '71 'Cuda in 2005 have we seen such an ambitious Mopar project come together. Pete Krehbiel's '68 Charger (the one on this month's cover) is a virtual dream team of components being assembled in one of the sexiest bodies ever conceived, and if Pete has his way, it's going live out its life equally on the street and on the racetrack. Tripower Automotive in Libertyville, Illinois, is using a Schwartz Performance chassis with an 8-inch engine setback and framerails widened by 8 inches to create the supercar performance. The wheelbase has also been stretched 4 inches. The setback all-aluminum 426 Hemi, which will be built by Indy, will channel power through a six-speed Tremec and into a Heidts IRS.
Pete is no stranger to the autocross or road racetrack. His previous rides have taught him what's important: light weight, high-grip, good brakes, better tires, and lots of patience. And as for the '71 Cuda grille? Pete loved the classic Charger body, but could do without the hideaway headlights. This project gave him the chance to try something we've always wanted to see, and it looks hella cool! Look for a feature on this when it's finished.

1963 Chevy Bel Air
Eric Hokenson, St. Paul, MN
Five years ago, Eric Hokenson bought an orange '63 Bel Air with gaudy yellow flames puking out of the front fenders. His initial intentions were to do a couple of quick modifications, flip the car, and make a few bucks to fund some other vehicle builds. After dropping in a supercharged 5.3 LS with a 4L60E, something strange happened: he discovered he really enjoyed driving the car. The interior, frame, suspension, and driveline were priority, with paint and body coming later. The problem: Eric is a custom painter and the gaudy, shoddy paint wasn't a good calling card, so he got this idea to let people sign their names and make comments and suggestions on what the car should look like with a permanent marker. The idea slightly backfired though: thousands of signatures later, it's now fairly famous as that "sweet car with all the signatures on it." He still hasn't gotten to the paint, but the '63 now has a custom twin-turbo system, and a bigger, beefier 4L80E transmission. With the help of his apprentice, Bobby Willard, Eric has a new goal: build the world's coolest cars in a hometown-hot-rodder style.

Smoke and Mirrors: Obama DOE Fracked Gas Export Study Contractor's Tobacco Industry RootsRead time: 8 mins
Steve Horn | January 24, 2013
By Steve Horn • Thursday, January 24, 2013 - 10:26
At first, it was kept secret for months, cryptically referred to only as an "unidentified third-party contractor."
Finally, in November 2012, Reuters revealed the name of the corporate consulting firm the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) hired to produce a study on the prospective economic impacts of liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports.
LNG is the super-chilled final product of gas obtained - predominatly in today's context - via the controversial hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") process taking place within shale deposits located throughout the U.S. This "prize" is shipped from the multitude of domestic shale basins in pipelines to various coastal LNG terminals, and then sent on LNG tankers to the global market.
The firm: National Economic Research Associates (NERA) Economic Consulting, has a long history of pushing for deregulation. Its claim to fame: the deregulation "studies" it publishes on behalf of the nuclear, coal, and oil/gas industry - and as it turns out, Big Tobacco, too.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass., Jan. 22 (UPI) -- Anna Welker, wife of New England Patriots receiver Wes Welker, said derogatory comments she made about Ray Lewis of the Ravens were "irrational."
Welker apologized for her Facebook blast at the Baltimore linebacker, posted immediately after the Patriots lost the AFC Championship game to the Ravens 28-13, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
"I'm deeply sorry for my recent post on Facebook," she said Monday. "I let the competitiveness of the game and the comments people were making about a team I dearly love get the best of me. My actions were emotional and irrational and I sincerely apologize to Ray Lewis and anyone affected by my comment after yesterday's game."
On Facebook, Welker said she was "proud of my husband and the Pats." She went on to blast Lewis: "By the way, if anyone is bored, please go to Ray Lewis' Wikipedia page. 6 kids 4 wives. Acquitted for murder. Paid a family off. Yay. What a hall of fame player! A true role model!"
Her comments were also inaccurate. Lewis has never been married, although he has reportedly fathered six children by four women.
Lewis was charged with murder in Atlanta in 2000 after a brawl at a Super Bowl party. The charge was dropped and he pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice and testified for the prosecution against two other men.
He is also known for his charitable work, including the Ray Lewis 52 Foundation, and his public commitment to Christianity.

Lassie looked brilliant, in part because the farm family she lived with was made up of idiots. Remember? One of them was always getting pinned under the tractor, and Lassie was always rushing back to the farmhouse to alert the other ones. She'd whimper and tug at their sleeves, and they'd always waste precious minutes saying things: "Do you think something's wrong? Do you think she wants us to follow her? What is it, girl?" as if this had never happened before, instead of every week. What with all the time these people spent pinned under the tractor, I don't see how they managed to grow any crops whatsoever. They probably got by on federal crop supports, which Lassie filed the applications for.

The cost doesn't factor in the price of the machine to edit/render the footage, the price of the software for special effects, and the camera. Lets say they had a Macbook, $2000, and they used final cut pro $800, and they used FXhome Visionlab for the special effects $500. Lastly the camera,a decent HD for $1000. That is $4300 right there.

DRM = Entire BATTLE.NET platform
Their actions are different than their press releases. I just got in the Starcraft 2 beta, and you have to log in to their service to do anything. While watching a replay, the connection to their servers was lost, and the replay froze. I would consider that a form of DRM.
When you say you want Netflix to offer your movie DRM free do you mean offer it streaming, and also a download link to save it on your machine or what?
You need to define "average user" first. All the average users I know watch a netflix movie once a day. I would guess that a movie would be around 1GB x 30 already knocks out the 20GB limit. Further, add multiple people using the same connection, watching youtube videos, downloading music/tv/movies on itunes, surfing and you have blown the 20GB limit out of the water.

It Is a Checkpoint, After All
The Philadelphia Inquirer asks why the TSA didn't catch Bonnie Sweeten absconding to Orlando at the airport after faking her own and her daughter's abduction.
The TSA and FBI are right: it's not airport security's job to look for people like Bonnie Sweeten. But they will quickly agree to make it part of their mission when newspapers and Members of Congress start to say they should. This is how a nominal airline security program transmogrifies into a general law enforcement checkpoint, and the noose tightens on your right to travel.

The United Way of Ellis County is not content sitting on its laurels. With justification, the umbrella organization certainly could.
Year after year, the local United Way sets and surpasses healthy financial goals to serve adequately its 14 member agencies. Fund-raising volunteers come and go, as do board members and even executive directors -- but the commitment to assisting those in need keeps the annual campaign on track.
This year, not only is the United Way of Ellis County raising its goal again but has added two additional agencies to its roster of community services. Northwest Kansas Community Corrections and the Smoky Hill Foundation for Chemical Dependency & the Regional Prevention Center have entered the United Way family, which means both will be able to receive financial assistance to accomplish their respective critical missions.
With 16 agencies that served more than 8,000 people in Ellis County last year, it's only appropriate the UW board selected "Rising Up to the Challenge" as the slogan for this year's campaign. While early fund-raising took place at various Pacesetter companies that raised approximately one-third of the $490,000 goal, the campaign launched officially last Friday.
All dollars raised are used almost exclusively for programs and services in Ellis County. It is a cause worthy of your attention -- and your support. If you haven't been contacted yet to donate, reach out to Executive Director Jason Rauch or administrative assistant Rachel Albin at the United Way's new location inside the Hadley Center, Suite 106, or call (785) 628-8281.
Your tax-deductible gift, no matter how large or small, will help make a difference in the community. And, whether you know it or not, your gift likely will help improve the life of a friend or neighbor. More than one out of every four people in Ellis County receive services from one of these 16 member agencies:
* Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ellis County,
* Cancer Council of Ellis County,
* Catholic Charities,
* Developmental Services of Northwest Kansas,
* Hays Office of the Western Kansas Chapter of the American Red Cross,
* First Call for Help,
* Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland Sunflower Region,
* Hays Area Children's Center,
* Kansas Legal Services,
* Northwest Kansas Community Corrections,
* Options Domestic and Sexual Violence Services,
* Parents and Children Together,
* Smoky Hill Foundation for Chemical Dependency & the Regional Prevention Center,
* United Cerebal Palsy of Kansas, and
* Western Kansas Association on Concerns of the Disabled.
