All the while I been shoveling snow in Chicago I don't remember ever wreaking any cement. If the driveway way cobblestone, or had a pea gravel texture on it you might be concerned. Plastic snow shovel are a fairly new product comparatively speaking.

When Michael Collins decides to become a surgeon, he is totally unprepared for the chaotic life of a resident at a major hospital. A natural overachiever, Collins' success, in college and medical school led to a surgical residency at one of the most respected medical centers in the world, the famed Mayo Clinic. But compared to his fellow residents Collins feels inadequate and unprepared. All too soon, the euphoria of beginning his career as an orthopedic resident gives way to the feeling he is a counterfeit, an imposter who has infiltrated a society of brilliant surgeons. This story of Collins' four-year surgical residency traces his rise from an eager but clueless first-year resident to accomplished Chief Resident in his final year. With unparalleled humor, he recounts the disparity between people's perceptions of a doctor's glamorous life and the real thing: a succession of run down cars that are towed to the junk yard, long weekends moonlighting at rural hospitals, a family that grows...

Westfield Village Board hears from the public
WESTFIELD - There were quite a few issues recently brought up to the Westfield Village Board.
During the public comment portion of the Westfield Village Board of Trustee's meeting, village resident Randy Travis shared a complaint about the noise caused by garbage trucks picking up private dumpsters behind the Main Street businesses between Portage and Market Streets. Travis said the trucks are making this noise during the noise curfew hours, and this wakes him up in the middle of the night most nights.
"The garbage trucks are excessively loud," he said.
Department of Public Works Supervisor Ed LeBarron said the dumpsters are picked up at such odd hours because it is the only time the service can access the dumpsters without cars in the way.
"We have no control over the private dumpsters," LeBarron said.
Village Clerk Vince Luce said it is an activity exempt from the noise ordinance law.
During the conversation, two other audience members - Mark Puckhaber and Marybelle Beigh - complained about being disturbed by the garbage contractor that services the village, saying it is picking up garbage well before the earliest contracted time of 5 a.m. LeBarron said he needs written complaints to enforce the penalties in the current contract; the contractor will not accept verbal warnings. Anyone with a complaint may get a form from the Village Clerk's Office or online at www.villageofwestfield.org under Downloads.
Stay Safe While Shoveling Snow | Charles & Hudson
Yes, we said it -- the dreaded s-word! As snow begins to fall in parts of the country, it's time to think about stocking up on winter supplies and that most dreaded of chores -- shoveling snow!
Shoveling snow is not easy work, especially if you're trying to move a heavy, damp snow as opposed to a more fluffy variety. Roy Berendsohn, a writer for Popular Mechanics To avoid back and other injuries, maintain proper posture while shoveling. Roy recommends using "your leg muscles as much as possible. Keep your back straight when you move from a squat to upright position. Use your shoulder muscles as much as possible. Hold the shovel as close to your upper body as possible. Keep one hand close to the blade for better leverage. Don't twist your upper body as you throw snow."
+ Start early, shovel often It may seem counterintuitive to shovel several times, but if your area is expected to receive a heavy snowfall, it's much easier to remove the snow in several lighter stages than to try to shovel a heavy accumulation in one pass. Keep an eye on the snowfall, and as it starts to build, head outside for a quick scrape over the driveway or other surface.

Girl Comes Home
The Unabashed Account of a Beautiful Life. We were rich with culture and beauty, mountains and music, unaware of our poverty because of the gifts of the 1860's Gold Rush, but 100 years later, Iron would change our lives forever. As the steel mills of Pueblo closed, our father's dependent business dried up. Leaving the mountains behind, turning toward desert New Mexico and our ancestral home in West Texas, we were strangers in what seemed a stark world. But happiness would still find us. Our home, between Court and Grand street on 22nd was a white stuccoed Tudor with green trim. It fit oddly into the cross-section of building periods represented within a few square blocks. Directly across the street a large farmhouse and its' outbuildings occupied more space than the rest of the neighborhood lots, which had undoubtedly been carved from its' original acreage. Heading south around the corner on Grand were bookended Victorian era row houses, ambling and ample, some carved into apartments. To the north, after a couple of lovely and graciously grounded Victorian homes, a succession of Arts and Crafts style Bungalows stretched on,and spread, seemingly in every direction for several miles. Court street had a few brick houses that seemed that seemed to have been more recently built, but by and large it was a '30's neighborhood all the way south to Mineral Palace Park. An abundance of trees of every kind and complementary landscaping, fountains, and statuary, for different homes made any stroll interesting. Leaving the warmth of our home and dressed in wool from head to toe, we would join the silent march of people, some as young as 5 and others as old as 18, headed toward our various schools. The high schoolers walked a full mile to old Centennial High, and the Junior High, Freed, was something more than a half mile. If you were on the way to the elementary school you avoided the carefully shoveled walks and took your trek through the mounds of snow on either side of the walk...
