Solid lipstick, Chapstick and stick deodorant are now okay to carry on (even “personal lubricants” like KY jelly are okay in an detailed itemized list on the TSA site).

- NEW TRAVEL BOOK : Ellen Simonetti, the Delta Air Lines flight attendant who was fired in 2004 because of her blog, will auction the first five copies of her ground-breaking self-published book, Diary of a Dysfunctional Flight Attendant: The Queen of Sky Blog, on eBay (Here’s the link). The copies will be signed and hand-numbered collector's editions. The book, a novel in blog format, brings the internet phenomenon of blogging to the traditional publishing world. In the process, a new and exciting genre is born—a genre that allows everyone (even the technologically challenged) to experience the addictive voyeurism of this hip new medium. The novel is based on Simonetti's controversial true story, which made headlines around the world and caused an international debate about the limits of free speech. It follows the online ramblings of "Queen of Sky," the alter ego of Elena Guaio, a fun-loving, light-hearted and slightly dysfunctional flight attendant for "Anonymous International Airlines." Elena's blog quickly becomes her trusted confidant, which she uses as a release and a tool to sort through the numerous ups and downs of her life. For more info log on to
