Flat - Antepost. Click here to bet.

Jessica Harrington's dual-purpose performer showed smart form over hurdles last winter, but was well beaten in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and subsequently at Fairyhouse.

He ran with more encouragement when third behind Fame And Glory back on the level in the Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan and he was the 15-8 favourite for this two-mile handicap.

Sensibly settled towards the rear by Fran Berry as outsider Cloone Rocket set a ferocious pace, Steps To Freedom made gradual headway through the field.

He quickened up to lead heading towards the furlong marker and soon put the race to bed, passing the post with four and a half lengths in hand over Night Glimmer. Rattan and Norah Starr filled the places.

Harrington said: "I'm absolutely delighted and to do that under 10st 3lb is a good performance. I've been stymied with the wet summer, with all my horses in fact.

"He settled brilliantly. He is entered in the Challenge Stakes at Leopardstown next Thursday and also in the Ebor at York and the Irish St Leger so he has plenty of options.

"We'll wait and see where the ground is good. He's a very good Flat stayer and in the autumn will go back over hurdles and hopefully we'll have a fine spring next year."

Freedom Reigns at Dundalk

Freedom Festival is dead.

It never secured a contract to bring tens of thousands of people to Fantasy of Flight just before the Republican National Convention. It suspended ticket sales. Its spokesmen stopped returning calls.

And this week, its website started automatically redirecting visitors to the Liberty Avengers, a new group with plans for its own pre-RNC event.

The avengers include some of the same Ron Paul-inspired organizers who started with Paul Festival 2012 still on track for three days of music and activism at the Florida State Fairgrounds and who later moved on to Freedom Festival over differences with the Paul Festival team.

Now that Freedom Festival has fizzled, some activists have transferred their efforts to an event called Liberty Unplugged.

"We just really wanted something to happen this weekend, so we don't lose all the momentum that's been created," Liberty Avengers co-founder David Foster of Tallahassee said.

The Irish Times - Friday, July 13, 2012

STEPS TO FREEDOM registered his first victory of the year with an impressive performance in the Boylesports.comHandicap at Dundalk yesterday. Jessica Harringtons dual-purpose performer showed smart form over hurdles last winter, but was well beaten in the Supreme Novices Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and subsequently at Fairyhouse.

He ran with more encouragement when third behind Fame And Glory back on the level in the Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan and he was the 15 to 8 favourite for this two-mile handicap.

Rattan and Norah Starr filled the places.

Meanwhile, Golden Lilac is viewed by many as something of a certainty for the Etihad Airways Falmouth Stakes, but John Oxxs Alanza is taken to spoil her party at Newmarket today as well as her compatriot, the Aidan OBrien-trained Maybe.

Having won over 10 furlongs last year and an extended nine on her return to action when beating Cirrus Des Aigles, there is a small chance Golden Lilac could be caught for speed.

There is no doubt she is the classiest horse in the race, but she is priced up accordingly whereas Oxxs Alanza appears to have gone under the radar. She won three on the bounce last season and that the Aga Khan left her in training suggests Oxx believes he can get a big win out of her and after a pipe-opener behind Emulous, she was a comfortable winner of a Group Three last time.

Impressive Steps To Freedom in control at Dundalk

The new pamphleteers.

The phrase freedom of the press is perhaps so familiar that its historical origin, and its possible meanings, can be overlooked.

The press to which it refers is often identified by many in England with the big-P Press of Fleet Street: the professional journalists who have press cards and go along to press awards; the very sort of people who we imagine once upon a time wore press hats, were inspired by Scoop, and regularly gossiped and drank at El Vinos.

Here, the freedom of the press is the general right of the gentlemen and ladies of the Fourth Estate to do as they wish without impediment.

But this may not be the best way of understanding the term. In fact, the expression freedom of the press significantly predates the existence of the modern newspaper industry, which was largely a product of the late 1800s and early 1900s. Instead, the expression freedom of the press came out of the great age of pamphleteering and protest which occurred during and after the civil wars in Britain of the mid-1600s. The actual formulation seems to have been first used in the 1660s, although the concept was promoted emphatically a couple of decades before by John Milton in his Areopagitica of 1644.

So when the term was first deployed it was not a label for the privileges of any big P Press consisting of a professional journalistic class working on a finite number of publications, for such a class of people did not then exist. It would appear to have had a more straightforward meaning: it described the general right of every person to have access to and make use of (literally) a press so as to publish to the world at large, without the intervention of licensors or censors.

In this way freedom of the press was not some entitlement of a media elite but a more basic right of anyone to circulate their ideas more widely than they could do simply by themselves.

And this general freedom was crucial. Before the rise of newspapers, and long before the extensions of the franchise and the existence of telecommunications and broadcast media, any right to free expression would have had little effect if all what one said or wrote was limited to being received by those around you and your correspondents. The ability to physically mass publish material was the key means by which wider circulation could be gained for a contribution on a matter of general importance.

If freedom of the press is taken with this meaning then its application to internet-based communication is obvious. Computers, mobile telephones, and tablets have replaced presses as the means by which any person can publish their opinions to the world and assert unwelcome facts in the face of the powerful. Accordingly, blogging and tweeting are more akin to pamphleteering than newspaper reporting. And like pamphleteers, bloggers and tweeters are fully subject to the perils of the law of the land but not to any sector-specific regulatory code.

What “freedom of the press” should mean

MAPLE GROVE, Minn., July 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Rough, dry patches of skin would make Lady Liberty herself want to lower her torch-bearing arm and seek relief. Between splashing in the pool and hanging out in the AC, summertime is prime time for drying skin saboteurs. If independence from dry skin is what you seek, look no further than AmLactin Moisturizing Body Lotion. With clinically proven 12% lactic acid, it gently exfoliates and intensely hydrates, leaving behind soft skin that would make even America's Founding Fathers proud.

"Many people think dry skin is a 'winter thing' and come to me with concerns when it appears in the summer," says board certified New York cosmetic dermatologist, Dr. Doris Day. "Dry skin can occur at any time and is associated with many conditions, Keratosis Pilaris (KP) being one of them. KP is an incurable skin condition and can be worsened by extreme environmental conditions in any season. For these reasons, I recommend incorporating exfoliation into your skincare routine regardless of the weather. A moisturizer rich in alpha-hydroxys, like AmLactin Moisturizing Body Lotion, makes this important step simple. Its dual action formula contains lactic acid, which works to exfoliate away dry, dead skin while providing essential moisture to new cells underneath."

About AmLactin Alpha-Hydroxy Skin Care AmLactin moisturizers contain alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), which are effective at exfoliating and hydrating the skin. AmLactin formulas also contain emollients and humectants that help retain the skin's natural moisture and draw water to the skin so it looks and feels soft and smooth. The AmLactin Alpha-Hydroxy Skin Care line includes AmLactin Moisturizing Body Lotion, AmLactin Ultra Hydrating Body Cream for severe dry skin (formerly AmLactin XL ) and AmLactin Foot Cream.

AmLactin Ultra Hydrating Body Cream is specially formulated for severe, persistently dry skin areas that need extra attention. It contains the advanced, patented ULTRAPLEX formula that gently exfoliates and is clinically proven to intensely hydrate for long-lasting moisture. With rich humectants and creamy emollients, AmLactin Ultra provides serious relief.

When using products with AHA, be sun smart: use sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using these products and for a week afterward.

All AmLactin products are available without a prescription at Costco, Walmart, Walgreens, CVS, Rite-Aid, http://www.drugstore.com and other fine retailers nationwide.
