Patdown modified for female passengers–
ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — In response to numerous complaints from women, the government has ordered airport security personnel to avoid touching female passengers between their breasts when performing patdowns.

Security screeners now will keep their hands to the “chest perimeter” of women unless detection equipment picks up the possibility that they are hiding explosives between their breasts.

The new method takes into consideration passenger discomfort while remaining steadfast in mitigating risks, said Transportation Security Administration spokesman Mark Hatfield.

The nation’s 45,000 screeners are being told to pat down the perimeter of the chest, backsides and abdomen, effective Thursday.

TSA has made other modifications. Last week it began allowing passengers to lower their arms after the first part of a search so they can be more comfortable.

Women have complained about the intrusiveness of the searches. “This reduces some of the anxiety that some passengers have expressed,” Hatfield said, adding that the change does not weaken security efforts.

Roughly 2 million passengers a week are patted down. Some are searched this way after setting off metal detectors twice; others are chosen by computer.

ZACHARY OR CHOPPERS–Hi Bandit, I’m looking for help finding a custom shopper shop. A while back, I saw an ad in one of the bike mag’s for a custom chopper shop, (frames and bikes). Since then, I have not been able to find the ad or remember the website name. What I remember is the word’s “zachary” and “chopper” were in the name. I’ve searched google, but have not been able to find anything.

Any help would be great.

BIKERNET GERIATRIC MOMENT–

A biker stops by the local Harley shop to have his bike fixed. They couldn’t do it while he waited, so he said he didn’t live far and would just walk home. On the way home he stopped at the hardware store and bought a bucket and an anvil. He stopped by the livestock store and picked up a couple of chickens and a goose. However, struggling outside the store he now had a problem: how to carry all of his purchases home. Whle he is scratching his head he was approached by a little old lady who told him she was lost. She asked, “Can you tell me how to get to 1603 Mockingbird Lane?”

The biker said, “Well, as a matter of fact, I live at 1616 Mockingbird Lane. I would walk you home, but I can’t carry this lot”. The old lady suggested, “Why don’t you put the anvil in the bucket, carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under each arm and carry the goose in the other hand?”

“Why thank you very much,” he said and proceeded to walk the old girl home. On the way home he says, “Let’s take my short cut and go down the alley. We’ll be there in no time.” The little old lady looked him over cautiously then said, “I am a lonely widow without a husband to defend me. How do I know that when we get in the alley you won’t hold me up against the wall, pull up my skirt, and ravish me?”

The biker said, “Holy smokes lady! I”m carrying a bucket, an anvil, two chickens, and a goose. How in the world could I possibly hold you up against the wall and do that?” The lady replied, “Set the goose down, cover him with the bucket, put the anvil on top of the bucket, and I’ll hold the chickens.”

THAT’S A WRAP FOR 2004–Here’s the plan in a chromed toolbox. I’m going to pump life into Hot Bike, upgrade the techs, specials, evenbike features. We’ve brought a solid number of Freelancers (Frank Kaisler,Rogue, TBear, Jim Houck ‘agent Zebra’ and more) on board to assist and givethe readers a wider range of talent and coverage. Hot Bike will cover thehottest action, tech, bikes and stories in the industry-that’s our motto.Street Choppers is going to take on more attitude and old school chopperswith a few of the new thrown in. If you’re into flat black, this is yourmag. And Hot Rod Bikes will become the industry Tech Bible. It’s all abouttechs and how-tos from wide tire installations to fuel injection upgrades.If all goes well Bikernet will remain the same in many respects and become aconnection for you to reach the mags, to see what’s happening behind thescenes, to receive teasers about up coming issues and see some of thehottest material archived for your future enjoyment.

That’s the initial plan, or the overall scheme. On top of that therewill be special issues, tech books and girls. That brings me to a story.Last night I put the Letters column together for the may issue. The word isout about girls in Hot Bike and my involvement. Many are excited, about thechanges. Some are offended, some cut the pictures of girls out of the adsand send them to me with passionate complaints. Isn’t that discrimination,if we left them out all together? Well bullshit, girls will be in Hot Bike,also the passion associated with tearing up the streets will be represented.We’re not producing a magazine about toasters or plain jane hubcaps, this isabout motorcycles, choppers, dream machines that take riders far away forordinary life.

I’m dying to see how people respond to the first issue. Some whoread my first editorial are terrified that I’m only going to run articleswith naked women and techs about rolling joints. It’s wild, so hang on andlet’s see what happens next. Have a helluva 2005 and I promise one thing forcertain, Never a Dull Moment.Ride Forever,–Bandit
