BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS – Cops snared 55 Massachusetts men in a sweeping, multi-agency child pornography crackdown — including a Transportation Security Administration officer assigned to Logan International Airport who is just the latest embarrassment for the troubled federal agency.
TSA agent Jose E. Salgado, 59, of Chelsea was suspended from his job after his employers learned that local law enforcement agencies are pursuing criminal charges against him for the possession and sharing of pornographic images of children.
"TSA has been cooperating fully with our law enforcement partners during the investigation into this matter," TSA spokeswoman Ann Davis said. "Upon learning of these charges, TSA took immediate action and the individual is not working at the airport."
Periodic arrests of TSA agents on sex charges across the nation have fueled criticism of the agency's screening of its own employees, tasked with patting down the traveling public and keeping the airways safe. At least two other TSA officers assigned to Logan have faced sex charges in the past two years. Sex charges against others have been reported in Virginia, New Hampshire, Nevada, Georgia and other states.
Salgado could not be reached for comment last night. He has been charged but was not arrested. His name surfaced hours after representatives of more than 20 Bay State police departments announced the arrest of 32 men in Operation Corral, a weeklong roundup of child pornography suspects across the state.
"This is just a drop in the bucket," said state police Sgt. Michael Hill of the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
Suspects were targeted in East Boston, Hyde Park, Revere, Dedham, Arlington, Brockton, Lowell, Worcester, New Bedford, Haverhill, Marblehead, Natick, Middleboro, Scituate, Taunton, South Harwich, North Attleboro, Milford, Seekonk, Somerset, Oak Bluffs, Oxford, Amesbury, Belchertown, Granby and Stockbridge. Authorities say they are now pursuing criminal complaints in eight more cases, and 14 more investigations are ongoing.
"We're going to be doing this for a long time," Hill said.
Operation Corral kicked off in January, when representatives of local, state and federal agencies began digging into computer-based file exchange networks, once used for sharing music, but now used to exchange illegal photos and videos. Bruce Foucart, special agent in charge of the Boston field office of Homeland Security Investigations, said trained computer investigators tracked the accused by following their digital footprints.
"A lot of times the criminals don't even realize they left things behind," he said.

Revitalization's WeblogFor the curious, questioning, and wandering soul
Archive for light
I want, I wonder
I'm here, in front of you, asking what I should do. What I should be. How I should act. I'm grown, and I'm aged, I'm wiser that I was. I'm smart and I'm shrewd, I'm astute and aware. But, I'm lost and I'm confused. I'm curious and I'm cautious. I'm asking you. I'm asking you who I should be, how I should be, how I should cope. I think this is how I cope.
I want to be humble. I want to be thoughtful. I want to be graceful and smart.
Remove the cynicism because it taints the beauty of each day, it stains the wonder that surrounds us. Remove the negative and oppressive thoughts. Remove self-doubt and disbelief. Accept and move on. Be honest and move on. Be open and stay humble. Stay you. Be you, but only the best version. Just you. Please, it is ever so important to not get jaded, to not get swayed or tainted or degraded. You must keep your light shining, keep you light away from others, keep your light solely for you. Keep it safe because it is fragile and it is rare and easily stifled, easily lost. It may dim at times and it may blaze, accept that. Do not judge that. Accept yourself with all of yourself. Keep your light alive, stay TRUE to yourself, stay true to who you are and what you stand for. Always stay true and stay shining bright.
You want someone who will give you the world. The world and his entire self.
He may not be a 10, or a 9, or an 8. He may be a 7. But, his heart is a 10, his heart is a 15, a 20. You want someone who will give you his heart, his whole heart and everything. You want someone who would do anything for you, for family, for your relationship. You want someone who will give you the world, who will give you his entire self. You want someone who will be there, who is committed to love, to life, to you, to your future children, to your futures together. You want someone who shares your dreams, your vision, someone who sees…. a beautiful life. Someone who is passionate and strong and willing and able. Someone who is dedicated and determined. You want someone unwavering.
You want someone who will give you the world. The world and his entire self.
Finding love
Finding love is like finding light.
It's dark. It's dark, and dank, and musky in here. Where I am, it's a place with little hope, perhaps just a flicker, perhaps my eternal flicker. But it's dark, and quiet, and solomn. It's a place I try to avoid, it's a place I don't want to be. It's a place of self-pity, of loss. A place of self-doubt, and judgement, and questions of self-worth. Full of insecurity and honesty, full of doubts and questions, full of fear. Full of fear.
I crave the light, I crave that beauty, that bright, startling, blinding beauty. The kind of beauty you can't help but look at, the kind of beauty you cant help up gaze at, stare at, the blinding beauty, that is so bright. It's like nothing else, it's so pure and rich and deep and true, and good, and full. It fills you up, it washes away everything else. I want to see that beauty, that true blinding light. I want to bask in the beauty.
Only a few know it, only a few, a lucky few get to see it. Get to revel in it, get to appreciate it for all that it is, get to truly understand the depth of it.
I want to see the light, I want to see truth, and beauty, and I want to be filled by it, every inch of me, I want to feel it. I want to feel it.
True beauty, it's there, it's out there. True, blinding, bright, beauty.. well it makes you cry. To live a life… to know it… to see the light. Ah, what a dream. I want to feel it, I want to breathe it, I want to know it, I want to bask in the light of beauty and truth. I can sense it, I am just on the cusp, or perhaps it's at the cusp where you find true beauty, where you are in this very moment, in this VERY moment. Yes, I am here, alive, honest. I am here, breathing, writing, expressing, I am here listening. I am here trying to break through, trying to discover, trying to uncover. Ah, it's wonderful, to be in this state of mind, searching. Loving.
But all I can see, all I can imagine, all I can dream up, is a bright, blinding light. With me, standing there, eyes shrouded, squinting but staring in to the deep bright light. Tears, and happiness. It's a blissful moment. It's perfection.
It's peace.
Believe. Believe it's possible. Believe you're worth it. Believe you can. Believe that people are good. Believe that this all means something. Believe that you are beautiful. Believe that what you do matters. Believe that we are all connected. Believe that there's something out there, something bigger than you, something bigger than all of us. Believe that greatness is within your reach. Believe that there's a light inside you. Believe that every moment shapes you. Believe in me. Believe in us.

Altered Level of Consciousness: Evidence-Based Management in the Emergency Department (Pharmacology CME) - $49.00
Publication Date: January 2017 (Volume 14, Number 1)
CME Credits: 4 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™, 4 ACEP Category I Credits, 4 AAFP Prescribed Credits, 4 AOA Category 2-A or 2-B Credits. CME expires 1/1/2020
Specialty CME Credits: Included as part of the 4 credits, this CME activity is eligible for 0.5 Pharmacology CME credits, subject to your state and institutional approval.
A child who presents to the emergency department with an altered level of consciousness can be clinically unstable and can pose a great diagnostic challenge. The emergency clinician must quickly develop a wide differential of possible etiologies in order to administer potentially life-saving medications or interventions. The history, physical examination, and appropriate diagnostic tests can aid greatly in rapidly narrowing the differential diagnosis. Once initial stabilization, workup, and first-line interventions are completed, most patients who present with unresolved or unidentified altered level of consciousness should be admitted for further evaluation and close monitoring. This issue provides a review of the etiologies of altered level of consciousness as well as guidance for the management and disposition of patients with this condition.
Excerpt From This Issue
A 7-year-old previously healthy girl presents to the ED with fever, neck pain, and increased sleepiness since the previous day. The patient's mother reports that she has had a nonproductive cough for the past 2 days, with associated nasal congestion and runny nose. She also notes that the girl has had a decreased appetite since the previous day, a temperature of 38.5ºC, neck pain, and has been lethargic. The patient's mother does not report a rash, and the remainder of the review of systems is negative. On examination, the patient is found to be sleepy and slowly arousable to commands. The girl's pupils are equal, 4 mm, and react briskly to light. She winces with extension of her knees and has reflex flexion of her hips and knees upon passive neck flexion. As you discuss the likely diagnosis with the girl's mother, you start to think about the management of this patient: What laboratory studies should be sent? Which medications should be administered? Are imaging studies indicated at this time?

Personally, I quite like it. After nine weeks of summer vacation, let's be honest. My kids were done. They were sick of each other and sick of me.
I thought I would share with you some of the more random, entertaining answers they gave during our annual first-day-of-school interview, and then I think I'll log off for a while. The heat index today is supposed to be 114, and yesterday, unloading $406 worth of groceries from my car (the hell? How is it I can spend that much money and we're not eating prime rib every night???) I felt my face melting off and my body pretty much spontaneously combusted, which makes it very difficult to type with tiny charred fingers.
What did you think of your teacher the first day? "She seemed nice to the people who treated her nice, but a little bit bossy to the other kids."
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go? "Asia sounds cool."
What is your most embarrassing moment? "I don't have one for right now, but sometimes Kellen and Kendrie in public are embarrassing."
What was the funniest thing that happened today? "When Xavier saw me and Gabriella, and he said, 'Hey! It's the two tallest people I know!'"
The biggest problem I have in school is: "This new girl named Angela who talks a lot. I don't want to be her partner. I'm afraid she might get me in trouble."
When I grow up I want to be: "CIA Ninja"
What do you think of your bedroom? "Well, we *have* been living here a long time and I'm kind of tired of looking at all the same things."
When I grow up I want to be: "I have no idea. I have a ton of things -- a vet, a doctor, a policeman, and a Mom."
What do you think of your class this year? "It's infected with meanie boys."
Something you think is important about our world: "Don't throw trash on the ground, and don't smoke weed. I don't know what that means, but I saw it on a commercial."

Accident Disabled Father Seeks Government Grant For Better Family Life
by Eugene Boyd
(Greenville, TX, USA)
My name is Eugene Boyd. I'm 31 years old and married with five kids.
At the age of eight, I was hit and run over by a drunk driver. Driving about 100 mph he knock me in the air and left me on the side of the highway to die.
I had broken bones all over my body and was bandaged from head to toe. Both legs and an arm were broken, and one ear was torn my head.
I had head damage, seizures, and went through many surgeries. I was in a coma for three weeks.
I had to learn how to learn how to walk and talk all over again. Now I have four bulging disks in my back, and three in my neck.
The doctors told my parents that I probably wouldn't pull through, but God said something different.
So now I put my trust in God. He is the light of the world. He is my all. If it wasn't for the power of prayer and the saints praying for me where would I be today?
But I am writing here today to try to get some help so that I can better myself. I am fully disabled with all that has happened to me, but there's more.
I also have a rare muscle disorder, and the doctor says I have heart trouble that requires me to take medication to regulate my heartbeat. I also take a 100 mg of blood pressure pills.
I am not looking for a free hand out but just hoping and praying that this gets in the right hands of someone that can help me get a grant for disabled people.
I really need this. I have a small business plan in mind that I think that will help boost up my monthly income.
Right now I am receiving $672 SSI. Imagine me with a wife and three kids at home trying to make ends meet. But with God on my side, I make it happen.
I hope this story will touch the heart of someone who can steer us to help. Be blessed.

Get Your Skin Back Into Shape After the Holidays
January was a weird month for me. I am still kinda-sorta feeling like the holidays were just here a second ago, and I need a moment to sit down and catch my breath. On the other hand, I've already made my resolutions, put away Christmas decorations, and started a crispy new planner for 2018. Being more organized is one of the ultimate goals for the new year, so last week I spent a couple nights reading tips from organizing pros who always seem to have their life together. I was reminded once again that one tiny mantra can change everything.
Simplicity is key.
I'm not talking about ultra-minimalism, but simplifying things when you can is the biggest step when it comes to staying productive and organized.
I'll use myself as an example. This year I started with makeup [you can follow my ongoing beauty purge series here], but tossing all of those expired mascaras and lipsticks I no longer wear freed up more than just space in my drawers. With every trip to the bin I felt freer of the clutter and things that I have no use for. It's that feeling of freedom that helps me stay focused and get stuff done. This past weekend I had the energy to meal prep for the week for the first time in months, and I attribute that to my recent decluttering efforts.
It really doesn't matter where you start, because simplifying things in general has a cumulative effect on our minds. Even something as simple as getting your beauty routine in order can be a big step to tackling other, more challenging tasks. Uncomplicating your beauty routine even for a short while can lead to surprising discoveries. You may even find out that you don't need to use so many different products. Remember the days when I thought a 15-step Korean skincare regimen was the way to go? Yeah, I'm done with that now.
Sometimes, three good products are really all you need. It's even better when they are affordable and easy to pick up at your local stores. This quick but comprehensive 3-step routine from Olay is the perfect example.
A good cleanser is the cornerstone of any decent skincare routine, and Olay Daily Facials can do more than just clean. These little single-use washcloths gently exfoliate and condition the skin, while removing all traces of makeup and impurities. You just need to add water and lather them up to activate the cleansing solution. I pack a few in my carry-on bag when I travel, because they always come in handy at the airports.
Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Cream is truly an exceptional moisturizer. In clinical tests it performed better than a department store product that retails for $400! Micro Sculpting Cream helps keep the skin look smoother, more even, and more hydrated, while steadily improving the texture and the appearance of lines over time. It's one of those products that I always recommend to friends who ask about my affordable and effective skincare favorites.
From a young age I learned to always use an eye cream appropriate for my skin type. As I get closer to my mid-30s, I started incorporating products with skin-loving ingredients that can reduce the telltale signs of fatigue. Olay Eyes Ultimate Eye Cream is one of the products that I like to use these days. It's infused with vitamins, peptides, and color-correcting filters to help reduce the appearance of dark circles and keep my eyes looking brighter and more awake.
I used the eye cream and the moisturizer during the Olay 28 Day Challenge, and was very happy with the results [you can see my progress here,]- the Daily Facials is a wonderful cleanser to complement them. I think the three work really well together and offer a variety of benefits for smoother, healthier-looking skin. You can purchase these products and any others that suit your preferences and lifestyle at Olay.com.
Using only three beauty products will eventually lead you to realize what your skin is truly craving. Or you may find out that it doesn't need anything else at all, then why use more stuff? So go ahead, take a break, hit the reset button, and start small. It all adds up in the end!
What are your general tips for staying organized? How many different products do you currently use in your skincare routine? Would you go down to just three? Let me know in the comments below!

Hedge funds go defensive, mutuals dump stocks. And it's all good.
Summary: Reasoning is based on a well-established fear dogging bull market: crowding
Dani Burger, Bloomberg
Active fund managers in the US and Europe have slashed their equity holdings -- giving some Wall Street players confidence stocks have further room to run.
That may sound counter-intuitive at first. But the reasoning is based on a well-established fear dogging this long-lived bull market: crowding, or the risk the investing herd will exacerbate sell-offs when volatility erupts.
With fast money getting defensive and mutual funds curbing stock allocations, the firepower of both groups to fuel bearish moves is now more limited. It's potentially a protective buffer at an opportune time, as volatility plumbs post-February lows and prompts warnings of a breakout on the heels of any trade war.
"The relatively lower levels of sentiment and the reduction in risk levels looks like it has probably removed at least one risk both to the market and to the performance of active managers," Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. quantitative strategists led by Inigo Fraser-Jenkins wrote in a note. "It is enough for us to be happy to continue with our pro-cyclical stance."
Equity long-short hedge funds, for their part, have been tilting their holdings to less economically sensitive industries over the past month. The ratio of cyclical to defensive exposure is hovering just above a one-year low, according to Credit Suisse Group AG prime services data.
Hedge funds are now "certainly more defensive than global growth and GDP estimates would imply," said Mark Connors, head of risk advisory at the Swiss bank.
Meanwhile, the broader market is accounting for less of the returns posted by publicly-listed US and European funds. That measure known as beta demonstrates managers have deliberately de-risked, according to data compiled by Bernstein.
Investors may infer a bearish signal about the macro climate in all this, of course. But the light positioning could be a tactical play.
Managers may feel less confident leaving large positions on around this time of year, according to Colin McLean, co-founder of SVM Asset Management Ltd.
"There may be a bit of window dressing before the summer," said McLean. "Liquidity is a bit lower so often fund managers will try to cut risk and harvest a bit of profit."
The analysts at Bernstein place the blame on heightened stock correlations over the past six months, which hover near their highest since 2016 for the S&P 500 and Euro Stoxx 50, respectively.
While that's not so dramatic, the stock-picking environment remains less favourable than last year, so it "may make sense for fund managers to decrease active risk somewhat," Fraser-Jenkins and team wrote.

Inspiretty #84
My fabby new shoes that arrived today, meet the Irregular Choice 'Trixxie'. I loved the print and unusual heel shape when these first came out but they quickly sold out of my size. I was lucky enough to win them on eBay this week and they're even more lovely in the flesh than I expected. Is the heart shape created by the heels a nod to the Royal Wedding tomorrow? Ha ha, not likely, I'm sick fed up of hearing about it!

Many people acquire shares of the own companies stock over their careers and some even invest in additional shares in their retirement plans. Concentration risk is real, ask the employees of Enron. A seemingly great company's shares could suffer a significant loss in value while the stock market soars to new highs. A more recent example of this General Electric which lost 42% in 2017 while the S&P 500 gained 21%. Diversification is a critical aspect of risk management and an important part of investment management and the financial planning process. Below is an article that explains this issue well.

Stock brokers stop trading on STT issue
A minor change in the tax treatment of STT as business expense has quite an impact on the amount of tax paid, reports MC Vaijayanthi.business Updated: Apr 01, 2008 22:32 IST
The new accounting year has forced arbitrage traders to shut their terminals, as the modified version of Securities Transaction Tax came into effect on Tuesday.
A minor change in the tax treatment of STT as business expense has a significant impact on the amount of tax paid. "The effective rate of STT for those who claim business income shall up by 66.66 per cent on a post tax basis should rebate on STT under section 88E be replaced by treating STT as a business expense," states a memorandum submitted to the finance ministry by the Association of NSE Members.
"From a direct tax STT has become an indirect tax, with this change in treatment. On illogical basis year on year STT is being increased," said Deena Mehta, MD, Asit C Mehta Investment Intermediates.
Traders said they are being treated unfairly vis-à-vis the foreign institutional investors who would pay no tax at all even on arbitrage income if they are registered as a permanent establishment in Mauritius. Against the direct tax rate of 33.33 per cent and an indirect tax median of 16 per cent, the rate applicable for stock trader segment becomes 50 per cent.

Hello mam, how are you today?
I'm doing well.
That's good to hear. My name is Brian Schultz with the IRS and the reason I'm calling is because there are back taxes owed in your name. If they aren't paid within the next 48 hours then we will have to issue an arrest warrant in your name.
Is that so? Tell them to come on. I'll be waiting.

My friend was in town, and I thought it would be nice to go on a tour around the city, the city i've been living in for the last 5 months.
Tour guides especially locals, always have that knowledge you as a visitor will likely take years to find out.
So with that in mind, I remembered a tweet I had seen whilst searching #saigon across Twitter and Instagram and happened to come across @freeguides_vn
?Time:5:30- 9:30PM
Only 12$ for a small trip!! Let's go discover #Saigon now!!

Checked there website, and decided on the 4 hour tour. It was $12! each, and that included getting picked up at my apartment and all the food consumed on the tour.
After being picked up at 6pm, we made our way to the flower market in district 10.
We walked around a little, getting to know the tour guides, who are all young and eager to engage and full of knowledge.
Time for our first meal, it was Ban Quon, which is a steamed rice roll. Ingredients include ground pork, mushrooms, seasoning and vegetables. All washed down with iced sugar cain drink.
I remember eating Banh Cuon for the first time in Hai Phong, i thought my Vietnamese friend was saying "Penguin". I was like "penguin"? He's like "yeah". I thought fair enough I'll give it a try ?. Turns out when pronouncing Banh Cuon, it sounds like Penguin. So didn't eat penguin ?. This time I got to make it on the streets of Saigon whilst I was on a tour. Ban Cuon is a thin steamed flour pancake that's filled with minced pork, mushrooms and other stuff. A fish sauce is used for dipping. Look out for my blog post over the next few days. #ENTJourney #vietnam #saigon #food #foodporn #foodie #foodstagram #foodgasm #hcmc #hochiminhcity #tour #tours #travel #travelingram #travelgram #traveller #travelling #travelblog #makingfood #night #street #nightlife
As you can see we even got to make our own 🙂
What I love most about these unknown places is the local feel. The feeling you don't get when you are in the city centre, or tourist areas.
You can sit, soak in the surroundings and interact with the locals who are always curious and normally sporting a big smile.
Personally I love people watching, In a city that has around 10 million people. You have lots of subjects. I just love to see businesses and customer interactions, just imagining in my mind what they must be talking about.
It doesn't really go a day without raining here in Saigon, especially as it's monsoon season.
Touring and getting wet, not the best, but it made for some good photo opportunities :). So every cloud as they say.
SO on our bikes we made our way across a wet city to Notre dame cathedral, Central Post Office and Turtle lake.
It's the first time I had been at the cathedral when it was raining, it was strangely peaceful. Probably because there was almost no people there other than us 🙂
On to walking street, Nguyen Hue. A long street with a statue of the late Ho Chi Minh in front of city hall.
Time to eat again, this time Vietnam pizza. I never had any, I can't handle spice! A light weight I know. But sweating and having a runny nose isn't fun :).
Our last food stop was for Bò lá lốt, which is beef wrapped in wild betel leaves and Mỡ Chài, grilled pork belly.
This was delicious, and freshly made by our man in the picture below. Probably my favourite photo of the tour.
There was tons more great stuff on the tour, but you'll need to go to find out for yourself 😉

PORTLAND, Ore. -- The Lewis & Clark Pioneers retired 16-straight batters after giving up an early home run in an 8-2 defeat of the Puget Sound Loggers on Thursday afternoon at Huston Sports Complex.
Six different Pios had two hits apiece as Lewis & Clark totaled 15 to Puget Sound's three. Sydney Cross hit a two-RBI double, one of her two doubles in the game, and finished with a team-high three RBI. Emily Drevdahl hit her first home run of the season and first since her freshman year. The now-junior had four in her first season.
Ateisha Norton, the team's leader in home runs (6) and batting average (.393) finished 1 for 2 after drawing two walks.
"It's been pretty fun. I've been trying to do my best," said Norton. "It's senior year, so I'm going out and giving everything I have. We have clicked this season and it's really awesome."
Stephanie Garcia, who along with Norton and Paige Salavea make up the senior class, is second on the team in average and went 2 for 3 with a run scored on Thursday.
"It's a team effort," said Garcia, who started in left field "Our pitchers are doing awesome and the defense is killing it."
Savannah Dickson was Lewis & Clark's starting pitcher and threw three innings with two strikeouts before Megan Anderson (2-8) pitched the final seven to earn her second career win. After Dickson allowed Jessica Gott's first home run of the season three batters into the game, she didn't allow another runner. Anderson continued the streak until Amber Popovich singled with two outs in the sixth inning. Puget Sound finished the game without getting another person on base.
The win is the first for the Pios since Mar. 11 and snaps an eight-game losing streak. Lewis & Clark (6-14, 5-11 NWC) is four games behind this weekend's opponent, Pacific, for the fourth-and-final postseason spot in the Northwest Conference standings. Puget Sound (7-18-1, 5-11 NWC) is in sixth place.
"We need to stay hot and keep this energy and bring everything we got," said Garcia about the goals against Pacific starting on Friday.
Salavea scored the first run for the Pios during Frankie Warden's at-bat in the first inning to bring Lewis & Clark within 2-1. Cross, who finished with a pair of doubles to match Warden for the team high of six, scored Warden and Garcia in the third to give the Pioneers a 3-2 lead. Zoe Juarez and Lisa Kumasaka singled in runs in the third and fifth, respectively. After Kumasaka's at-bat in the fifth, Salavea scored her and advanced to third on her double.
Cross doubled in another run in the sixth before Drevdahl's homer. The eight runs are the most for the Pios since winning their last game, 13-3, at Willamette.
"Really important to win today," said Norton. "We needed to get that feeling going again today. It was nice to get it all clicking again."
The first pitch of the four-game series at Pacific is at noon on Friday.

Incorrect recycling costing Lee County
People in Lee County are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars more than they have to every year because they don't know how to recycle.
Paper, metal cans, cardboard, plastic containers and glass are the only things Lee County can recycle and get money for. Everything else is what the county calls "Wishcycling" and it's expensive.
"That activity, Wishcycling, is costing all of us in Lee County $400,000 a year, over $2,000 a day just in moving material that should never have come to us in the first place over to the waste and energy plant," said Molly Schweers with the county's solid waste division.
Schweers said China was the biggest buyer of recyclables from the county. They've stopped as of May and the county is now looking for another buyer.
Schweers said the best advice to recycle right is to set up three separate bins at home: trash, recycling, and one for donation, and to throw it out if in doubt.

By Nicky Chow
If you're the sort of person who loves a city break, then you'll need a pushchair to match. Thankfully our Armadillo City2's slim frame and light design is ideal for city streets. But how did our Parent Approved Panellist Nicky, and daughter Aoibhe, get on?
Before Aoibhe arrived, we had friends telling us that they had different prams for different occasions. I couldn't quite understand this as I wouldn't have different cars for different occasions - don't get me wrong, I would love to have a different car for each occasion, it would be fun but neither practical nor economical!
That said, Mamas & Papas have given us their Armadillo City2 to review so I have now joined the, probably not very exclusive, club of multi pram ownership.
Before I begin with why I needed a second pram, it's probably best to describe our family dynamic and how we get around with Aoibhe. We live in the city centre where everything we need is within walking distance and if we need to go a bit further, we drive. We almost never have the need to use buses or trains. The shops are never overly crowded and everything is easily accessible with our pram. We have been using one pushchair until now - a travel system with pram chair and car seat, it's all that we have needed.
In September this year we had a trip to London planned with Aoibhe. It was our first trip away without the car and we were going to use public transport for the entire journey.
Facing us was the daunting prospect of navigating a baby through central London and, in particular, the Victorian tunnels of the London Underground! This clearly required a bit of planning and another type of travel system. That's where the Armadillo City2 comes in. It's designed for the city and navigating busy streets and the often tricky ups and downs of public transport.
Our first challenge was getting all our 1 week's worth of luggage, baby and pram to the train station and onto the train via a taxi ride. Given the additional items that we needed to carry at this point, primarily a 91 litre trolley case, it made sense to have Aoibhe in the carrier and the Armadillo City2 in its compact folded position. It's light enough to carry with one hand and can be called into action with a sleek one hand flip and unfold! This was really easy as was storing the Armadillo City2 on the train. It fit neatly in the luggage area between the seats. I should say, that our journey from London Euston to our friend's flat via the London Underground was not quite as smooth, yet after much perspiration and cursing we made it. The Armadillo City2 clearly had some challenges ahead!
On day one in London we decided not to use the pram. Because clearly the best way to test a pushchair was to spend a day not using a pushchair so you know what you miss! We used the carrier all day and we are fortunate that Aoibhe loves it in her carrier and she can easily sleep in it, plus I love babywearing. The greatest benefit was that we could go anywhere, barrier free. Seriously, you will not know how liberating it is to be able to use stairs and escalators again until you've had to search every corner of a building for the lift only to wait behind queues of parents and prams all going to a different floor than you!
There were, however, a few downsides. I had Aoibhe in her carrier but also had to have her pram bag on my back and had to carry anything we picked up on the day. It was also a very hot day and having a mini radiator (that's the baby!) strapped to you is not the most comfortable. Finally, Aoibhe fell asleep during dinnertime and I had to eat with her still in the carrier. Probably not a big issue with a burger and chips, but it requires a bit of skill when your choice of dining for the evening is Japanese Soup Noodle!
We spent the following day with friends in Greenwich, travelling there via the Underground and DLR. We had a few occasions where we had to take Aoibhe out of the pram and fold it, either to negotiate some steps or to be more compact in the crowd. This was one of the easier things to do given the one hand fold that the Armadillo City2 offers. One criticism I would have of the folded unit is that the handle faces downwards. If you set the pram down, the handle inevitably touches the ground which is not the most hygienic in my opinion. Another note on the handle is that I found it a little too low and it would have benefited from an extendable function, perhaps a design that would allow it to fold back on itself thus solving the hygiene issue mentioned earlier too.
I'm also not a massive fan of front facing prams as I prefer baby to face me for interaction and also so they don't get a face full of wind on a bad day, which we have many of in Scotland. Manoeuvrability-wise, there were certainly no issues with any of the surfaces the Underground had to offer. Given it is a narrow pram, it's not designed for fast cornering but as long as your not looking to power-slide your way to the finish line, you should be fine. I should note though that the pram is marginally too small to fit through the standard London Underground speed gate, which is a shame.
Later that day we took the pram through Greenwich Park and it was equally adept on the grass and cobbles as it was on the tarmac as we navigated towards the play park. This was the last weekend of summer and the play park was full. The swings were in high demand so we rolled up to queue to wait our turn - if it's not lifts it's swings! At this point it was noted by my friend that the click on the wheel lock was not quite aggressive enough to make the statement to the other parents that I had arrived in the queue. After the swings tired her out, Aoibhe managed a 2 hour sleep in the lie-flat position. This is really good to have in a pram but I would say that a little leg support to the front of the pram would have made this function better. It did afford us some time to relax the afternoon with our friends in the beer garden.
All in all, the Armadillo City2 is a very good pram. There are definite highlights in the easy one hand fold/unfold into it's compact and light storage position and lie flat option and it definitely dealt with London infinitely better than our travel system would have ever done. However, there are a number of things I feel it can improve upon such as an adjustable handle, leg rest and minor alteration to the overall width. So, in the world of multi pram ownership, is this THE other pram that I need? I'm not sure. For that reason I give it a rating of 3 out of 5.
A great, honest review from Nicky. While there were definitely areas we can look to improve, overall it seems that the Armadillo City2 was up to tackling the busy streets and crowded tubes of London.
If you're in the market for a light, compact pram for city adventures, then the Armadillo City2 could be the one for you. But we also understand that no two families are the same, which is why we offer a range of buggy solutions for different lifestyles.

Join Big 97.9 For a Rocky Mountain Country Christmas
To me, there are few things more heartwarming than sitting around with a bunch of friends telling stories and singing Christmas songs. So, we have gathered some of our friends with the best voices in the region to do just that this Christmas.
Our first Rocky Mountain Country Christmas is set for December, 23rd at the Moxi Theater in Downtown Greeley.
The show will feature four amazing Rocky Mountain Country musicians onstage with me as we tell stories, play Christmas songs, and make the season a little warmer. Those four talented artists are Rocky Mountain CMA Songwriter of the Year nominee, Randy Burghardt, New Artist of the Year nominee, Romero, Songwriter of the Year Winner, Ryan Chrys, and a member of Team Blake from this season of The Voice, Kristi Hoopes.
After warming you up a little with those great artists, the pride of Eaton, Colorado, Austin Wahlert, will turn things up a bit as he and his band play more Christmas classics, some of country music's greatest hits, and some of his own tunes as well.
It is the perfect way to spend Christmas weekend, and we cannot wait to spend it with you. Grab your tickets to this special show here.

RINDGE, N.H. – The Saint Anselm College men's ice hockey team lost to Franklin Pierce University, 5-3, on Tuesday night in Northeast-10 Conference play at Jason Ritchie Ice Arena.
The Hawks fall to 1-2-0 on the season and 1-1-0 in NE10 action while the Ravens improve to 3-1-0 overall and 1-0-0 in league play.
Junior Mike Ferraro (Northbridge, Mass.) led Saint Anselm with a pair of goals while senior captain Jeremy Carignan (Amos, Quebec) had a tally. Freshman goaltender Michal Soustal (Unicov, Czech Repubic) made 28 saves in his collegiate debut.
After a slow start to the first period, Franklin Pierce struck for two goals in a span of nine seconds. The Ravens scored at 10:42 of the first stanza on a goal by Matthew Toombs before Cameron Shepardson extended the lead to a pair of goals.
Saint Anselm answered at 15:32 of the opening period thanks to a goal by Carignan. Freshman Anthony Iacullo (Barrington, Ill.) and senior Bryan Green (Weymouth, Mass.) made some passes in the offensive zone, finding Carignan near the left post who finished the play.
The Hawks tied things up early in the second period thanks to a goal by Ferraro at 1:17. He wrapped-around the net, stuffing the puck into the right post. However, the Ravens scored the next two goals of the period to take a 4-2 lead. The first came at 10:56 of the second before Justin Blanchette scored with just over five minutes remaining in the period.
Saint Anselm cut the lead back to a one-goal deficit with 1:49 left in the second stanza. Sophomore Alec Andreucci (Guilford, Conn.) slid the puck to Ferraro at the left circle, who one-timed a shot past the goaltender.
The Ravens added one at 9:04 of the third period on a deflection in front of the net to take a 5-3 lead. Saint Anselm put 11 shots on net in the third period but could not convert them into goals.
Neither team could take advantage on the power play going 0-for-3 combined. The Hawks had a slim 34-33 edge in shots and blocked 14 of their own. Ian Wallace made 31 saves in net for Franklin Pierce.
Saint Anselm returns home this weekend for a pair of NE10 contests. Friday night's game is against Southern New Hampshire University at Sullivan Arena with puck drop set for 7 p.m.

Comment on Chick-fil-A Copycat Chicken Sandwiches by Anne.
I will never deny how fabulous they taste-however, Chik-fil-A has been reported nationally for funding anti-gay marriage projects and politicians thru their WinShape Foundation –nearly 2 million bucks in 2010 (read the Huffington Post article http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/02/chick-fil-a-anti-gay-group-donations-_n_1 644609.html )
I'm a southerner raised on Chik-fil-A and while the taste is sublime, I won't eat it because of their politics. I will also say that I was living outside Atlanta ten years ago near Decatur and if you ate inside there was a man who was walking the tables and 'witnessing' for Christ–happened every time my husband and I ate there and he was wearing an employee name badge.
I know you can't reproduce the exact sandwich at home, but thank you for coming up with a very delicious looking copycat for those of us who don't want to give money–however indirectly–to WinShape and its politics of intolerance

Friday's Random Media Post
I've posted before about my fondness for the end of the world, so I decided to tune into Jericho this week. How could I not? It had nukes!
It is obvious that network execs are still trying to mimic the "Lost" effect, and it is obvious that they still don't quite get what makes "Lost" tick. Sure, "Lost" is a sci-fi show, but it is far overshadowed by the drama, especially of the character histories. Sure I want to know everything about Dharma, but my most favorite moments of the show have nothing to do with Dharma or the "mystery" - it's the story, stupid.
Last year we saw shows crop up that tried to copy the success of "Lost". My wife and I watched "Invasion" for a while - but eventually got so bored we didn't even bother fast forwarding through it for good parts. We didn't bother with "Surface", but actually got into it a bit when our son saw the dragons. (As a parent, it is hard not to share your child's enthusiasm.) Both shows got the axe and that's what really bugs me about sci fi shows in general. Unlike most dramas, sci fi shows tend to have quite a bit of mystery and unanswered questions. So even if the show isn't that great, you get hooked and want to know what's behind the mystery.
So when a show like "Surface" gets cancelled - us sci fi geeks are left hanging. What exactly was the reason for the dragons? It was obvious they were created by a corporation, but for what purpose? Simply put - what would have happened if the show was able to wrap up? What really ticks me off is that with the Internet, this would be trivial. The creators (Josh and Jonas Pate, yeah, I'm talking to you guys) could spend all of - oh - let's say 5 minutes - and write a quick blog entry that would explain where they were going and how things would have ended. Sure - they may not know - but they could share something.
In fact - consider this an open invitation Josh and Jonas. Drop me a line and I'll be happy to post your text.
Oh wait - was I talking about "Jericho"? Yes, I was. The show was… so so. The scene with the answering machine though was darn good. All in all - it is an ok show. I'll watch it - but I almost figure it's just not worth it. Once again I know it will get cancelled. Once again I know we won't get the answers even though it would be trivial for them to be released post-cancellation.
p.s. In case folks are curious - I've had this problem with sci fi shows all the way back to "Otherworld", another show that I wanted to know more about. I was a mere Level 1 Geek back then - but hey - I still remember it. ;)

Establishing a good regime for introducing nutrients into the aquarium is vital for the continued health and growth of plants. The type and quantity of fertilization depends to a great extent on the dynamics of the individual aquarium. An aquarium with nutrient-rich or soil-based substrates may need only regular water changes with tap water and carbon dioxide fertilization to maintain sufficient nutrient levels. On the other hand, an aquarium with an inert substrate and few additional substrate fertilizers will need regular dosing with a liquid fertilizer, in conjunction with carbon dioxide fertilization. If an aquarium is deficient in only a few nutrients, such as iron and potassium, it may be necessary to add specific fertilizers regularly. Whatever the circumstances, it is important that any fertilizer regimes are maintained on a consistent basis to ensure good plant health in the display aquarium.

The word aquarium originates from the ancient Latin language, aqua meaning water and the suffix rium meaning place or building. Aquariums are beautiful and look good anywhere! Home aquariums are becoming more and more popular, it is a hobby that many people are flocking too and fish shops are on the rise. Fish are generally easy to keep although do they need quite a bit of attention. Puppies and kittens were the typical pet but now fish are becoming more and more frequent in house holds. In recent years fish shops have noticed a great increase in the rise of people wanting to purchase aquariums and fish, the boom has been great for local shops as the fish industry hasnt been such a great industry before now.
