Once again this morning, one of the escalators at Journal Square was out of service. By my unscientific estimates, that would make this the ONE MILLIONTH time this has happened in the past four years.

I've never seen escalators needing so much service (and I've seen some heavily used and ancient escalators - Moscow, Paris, London, etc). So, does anybody have any idea why the JSQ escalators need so much work? Honestly, it's like 7 times a month.

Are all the escalators in the other PATH stations so pitiful?


Would you say that your weight is more comparable to a duffel bag, or a tugboat?

You're implying that shotguns are an advanced god-like technology, which is absolutely not true, especially in the face of H&K MP5 submachine guns - the weapons used by the ESUs that responded to last week's incident.

The Mossberg shotgun used by the suspect was a pump-action single loader - that's a slow, non-cyclical, manual cocking mechanism, and holds a maximum of 7 shells at a time. Hits from this weapon using standard buckshot ammunition at even a moderate range in any area other than certain parts of the head are seldom fatal.

The H&K MP5 SMGs used by ESU deliver 9mm FMJ ammunition at a fully-automatic rate of 800 rounds per minute holding 30 rounds per magazine - moreover, the operator can empty the clip in less than 2.5 seconds with a single press of the finger.

Bottom line is that JCPD is hardly "under equipped" compared to street weapons - it's unfortunate that the officer succumbed to his injuries but the results could have been much worse if the suspect had NOT used a shotgun.

Yesterday I went for a walk with my 2 years old daughter near C Town supermarket. Some lady came and asked to take my baby?s picture into her cell phone, I didn?t want to be rude and said ok, and then she told me to stay aside, so she can take only her picture. Then she asked me if we?ll come tomorrow, so she can give me her picture. Now I?m freaked out and don?t know what to do!!! Did somebody hear this kind of stories?


I'd like to think that the passer-by merely adored your beautiful child, and perhaps was not fortunate enough to have their own.

There was a time in this city when an adoration of children was welcomed.
