Sen. Schumer pushing for law that prohibits baggage fees

U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer said Sunday he's trying to get the federal government to prohibit airlines from charging a fee for carry-on baggage, calling it a "slap in the face to travelers." The New York Democrat is making a personal plea to the Treasury Department to rule that carry-on bags are a necessity for travel, which would make them exempt from a separate fee outside the ticket price.

Will Full-Body Scanners at Airports Improve Security? - TIME

Use your imagination! Weigh in! Lots of people warn about the government getting into our pants. We should all just streak the scanners (remember that?) and they can give us hospital gowns for the ride. Except for the bombshells - leave them naked, which was the idea in the first place right?
