Great to be back, now it’s time for catch up both on the show and at work! We’ve got some interesting articles to cover on the show today along with some great e-mails and a prize pack giveaway.  I realized this past week the following; Six Flags Great America is similar to going to Las Vegas, my kids are too young to work and I’m glad that my wife came back from one of her favorite places on the planet, Santa Cruz, CA. I also realized that spending time with my boys has to be one of the best things in the world and I’m glad I had the opportunity to do so this past week. Pictured Right: As China addresses escalator safety perhaps they should look to improving communications on how to ride them and that if traveling with what's shown in the picture, elevators should be used. Visit www.eesf.org for more information.

Special thanks to the companies who have donated goodies to the prize pack giveaway!
