Some hard work on the offensive boards and double-digit scoring from three players helped power Fairhaven to a 68-54 win over Apponequet in the preliminary round of the Div. 3 South Sectional.
FAIRHAVEN — Some hard work on the offensive boards and double-digit scoring from three players helped power Fairhaven to a 68-54 win over Apponequet in the preliminary round of the Div. 3 South Sectional on Tuesday.
It was a much different outcome from last Wednesday, when the Lakers notched a 46-31 win over the Blue Devils to wrap up a tournament berth in their regular-season finale.
"We knew that we had to come out and play hard," Fairhaven coach Jeff Perry said. "We got pushed around in the paint the last time we played them and we knew we had to be more physical and go after every rebound."
The Lakers got off to a quick start, grabbing a 8-0 lead in the first 4:50. The Blue Devils scored their first basket on an offensive-rebound putback by junior forward Mariah Nicholas with 2:09 left in the quarter to make it an 8-2 game and start what would be a game-winning pattern.
"The game came down to offensive rebounds," Apponequet coach Trevor Gagnier said. "Fairhaven probably scored 25 or 30 points on putbacks and that was the difference."
Senior guard Ashley Brown finished with 14 points, 10 rebounds, and nine assists to fall just short of a triple double for the 14th-seeded Blue Devils, who also got 13-point efforts from senior center Kay Mullen and Nicholas. Junior guard Alex Charette also played well, finishing with seven points off the bench.
Sophomore guard Callie Nee scored a game-high 16 points for the 19th-seeded Lakers and sophomore guard Katie Simonsen added 15 points. Together, they combined to make all seven of Apponequet's three-pointers.
"We played hard. Fifty-four points is usually enough to win, but Fairhaven outworked us on the boards, they made some big baskets, and Brown did a nice job distributing the ball to her teammates."
The game was a learning experience for the Lakers, who lose two seniors to graduation and will return a starting lineup next season that will feature one senior (Jade Rodrigues), three juniors (Kailyn Milligan, Nee, Simonsen), and a sophomore (Jessica Dubois).
"I thought we played hard. The kids did a nice job winning some big games to make it to the tournament. We just didn't do enough to get it done tonight," Gagnier said. "It was good for our kids to play in a tough tournament game like that. Hopefully we can learn from this experience and give it another shot next season."
WHAT IT MEANS: Fairhaven, which improved to 12-7, will play a 5:15 p.m. first-round game at third-seeded Martha's Vineyard (16-4) on Thursday. The loss wrapped up a 9-10 season for Apponequet.
SOUTHCOASTVARSITY.COM STAR OF THE GAME: Brown, who didn't have a great shooting night, but used her ballhandling skills and speed to play at a fast pace and find teammates for easy baskets with some slick passing on the fast break.
Play of the game: A driving layup and a free throw that completed a three-point play by Nicholas that gave the Blue Devils their first lead (15-14) with 5:51 left in the second quarter. They never trailed the rest of the way.
aPPONEQUET STATS: The Lakers missed their first seven free throws and ended up 2 for 10 in the first half. They were 7 for 14 in the second half to finish 9 for 24 overall. ... They committed 10 of their 26 turnovers in the second quarter.
FAIRHAVEN STATS: The Blue Devils made 18 of 24 free throws and finished with 20 turnovers. They turned the ball over five times in each quarter.
nOTES: The game was played in front of a standing-room crowd at the Barton B. Leach Gymnasium. ... Old Rochester head coach Bob Hohne was at the game, along with assistant coaches Glen Gardner and Russ Bailey. ... Wareham head coach Dave Brogioli, a former girls coach at Fairhaven, was also in attendance and Dartmouth was represented by assistant coach Brian Jalbert.
Apponequet (9-10)
Jade Rodrigues 4-0-8, Kailyn Milligan 3-2-8, Callie Nee 4-5-16, Jessica Dubois 2-0-4, Katie Simonsen 5-1-15, Ranee Roszkowicz 1-0-2, Abby Couto 0-1-1. Totals: 19-9-54.

Recipe: Semlor Lenten buns
January 22, 2015 | 7 Comments
Ohhh, those delicious buns of delight and loveliness. It's the season and we have a great recipe.
Lent buns (Semla for singular, Semlor for plural) are buns eaten leading up to and during Lent in Scandinavia. In Sweden the are most popular and bakeries start selling these already in January. Fat Tuesday – Shrove Tuesday or Mardi Gras – is the day when we eat at least one and maybe more of these buns. We basically fatten up before Lent.
You will never ever find Semlor buns sold outside the season – it is just not done. So, take advantage of the season now that runs until Easter and have a go at making these seriously rich buns at home.
Let us tell you that the little dollop of custard or creme patisserie makes all the difference. Thats just our little trick and hint for an extra delicious bun.
Love, The Kitchen People
- 25g fresh yeast (or 12g active dry yeast)
- 80g melted butter
- 250ml whole milk
- 40g caster sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tsp ground cardamom
- Approximately 300-400g plain bread flour
- ½ egg for brushing
- Filling:
- 100g Marzipan
- A good dollop of custard or crème pâtisserie
- 500ml whipping cream
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar or extract
- Icing sugar to dust
- If using mixer, set it up with the dough hook attachment. Melt the butter and add the milk, ensuring a lukewarm temperature of around 37-38ºC. Add the fresh yeast and stir until dissolved.
- Add sugar and stir again. Add half of the flour as well as the salt, baking powder and ground cardamom. Add the ½ egg (preserve the other half for brushing before baking).
- Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated and then start to add more of the flour, bit by bit, until you have a dough that is only a little bit sticky. Take care not to add too much flour: you will get dry buns. Knead the dough for at least five minutes in the mixer, longer by hand. Leave to rise in a warm (not hot) place until doubled in size (30-40 min).
- Turn the dough out to a floured surface. Knead again for a few minutes, adding more flour if needed. Cut the dough into 12 equal sized pieces. Take care that the balls are completely round and uniform in size. Place on baking tray with good spacing between buns. Leave to rise for another 25-30 minutes.
- Gently brush each bun with the remainder of the egg wash and bake in a hot oven (200ºC) for about 8-10 minutes or until baked through – keep an eye on them as they can burn quickly. Remove from oven and cover the tray with a lightly damp tea towel immediately – this will prevent the buns from forming a crust.
- When the buns have cooled down completely, cut a 'lid' off the buns – about 1½ cm from the top. Scoop out about 1/3 of the inside of the bun and place crumbs in a separate bowl.
- Mix the almond paste with the crumb until it forms a very sticky mass –add a dash of milk, custard or crème pâtisserie at this point to help it along. You want a spoonable, even mixture. Spoon the filling back into the buns, equally divided. Whip the cream with the vanilla sugar until stiff and use a piping bag to pipe cream on all the buns' tops. Put the 'lids' back on and dust with icing sugar.

The title of director David O. Russell's film is simple
enough — "The Fighter" — but which character it refers to is not so clear. It
would seem to be Micky Ward (Mark Wahlberg), the welterweight who's been
battling his way through the fight game in the early 1990s. But it could just
as easily be his half-brother, Dicky Eklund (Christian Bale), a former boxer
who seemed to be a champion in the making more than a decade earlier, before
giving in to drug addiction.
The differences between the two are immediately evident.
Micky is composed and focused, dealing with his challenges as calmly and
reasonably as possible, while Dicky has the anxious eyes of an animal on the
run and the uneasy tone of voice of someone who's continually trying to think
up the next lie he'll tell. When he's sitting down, his legs constantly wiggle,
and when he's on his feet he moves with the awkward, outwardly confident stride
of a crushingly insecure man trying to put on a show for everyone around him.
He might as well have "once-promising" tattooed on his forehead.
Vivid personalities and perfectly tuned performances are the
hallmarks of this compelling character study, based on a true story. Micky and
Dicky may be complete opposites, but they're both under the thumb of a
mother/manager who uses love as a lethal weapon. Alice Ward (Melissa Leo) is a
much-married wildcat of a woman whose blonde honey-bun hairdo might as well be
a crash helmet. She clings to the yellowing scrapbooks documenting Dicky's
glory days as if they might contain magic spells capable of bringing back the
good old days. Even so, Alice is practical enough to know Micky is still her
best shot at returning to the big time, although, at 31, he's getting
perilously close to being past his prime.
Wahlberg, Bale and Leo superbly showcase the scary
psychological connections between these three, with Dicky and Alice fervently
avoiding reality and counting on Micky at every turn to shield them from the
truth about themselves. The mutually poisonous tie between Dicky and Alice is
particularly gripping. When she catches him sneaking around a local crackhouse,
he knows exactly how to immediately win back her trust: by warbling the Bee
Gees' "I Started a Joke" in the voice of an eager-to-please little boy.
When experts advise Micky to dump Dicky as his trainer,
Micky recites a defense that's obviously been drummed into his mind over the
years: "He taught me everything I know. I can't do it without him. He's always
been in my corner."
Micky's wake-up call arrives in the form of sharp-eyed
Charlene (a no-nonsense, tough-talking Amy Adams, operating in a galaxy far,
far away from "Julie and Julia" and "Enchanted"), a bartender who's had a few
knockdowns herself: Having partied too often in college and lost her
scholarship, she knows all too well what it feels like to step onto the
downward spiral. It also takes her very little time to size up Micky's
situation and to realize that Alice and Dicky are leeches and that Micky is
their blood bank.
In its second act, "The Fighter" develops into a tug-of-war,
with Alice employing every possible passive-aggressive trick to hold on to
Micky and Charlene urging him to finally acknowledge what he's known for years.
If Alice is the Wicked Witch in this scenario, her seven daughters (most of
whom have the well-worn look of what a friend used to call "the girls who live
in fear of the 'last call' lights") make up her army of Flying Monkeys, hanging
around Alice's house and waiting fro her commands. They chatter incessantly, dub
Charlene an "MTV girl" — their code word for "slut" — and fawn over Dicky, even
as he continues to fall apart.
"The Fighter" includes several boxing matches, which Russell
photographs in the slightly glossy/grainy format of an HBO special. But the
most exciting bouts happen outside of the ring, as Charlene takes on Alice and
Dicky — the verbal free-for-all between Bale and Adams is hilariously nasty —
and Micky squares off with himself, struggling to balance his devotion to his
family with his desire for a happier future. The going gets rocky, but this is
not "Rocky": It's a searing, touching and powerfully played picture of a world
in which the real triumph may be merely surviving and living with your eyes

I absolutely am in love with this purchase. It has been worn a few times already and has held up great after each wash with no fading, loss of shape or pealing. This graphic works best I think against the grey I chose. Love that this artist represents the beautiful diversity of our Puerto Rican culture. This image resonates with me being that I am Puerto Rican of mostly African descent. Thank you Ida Yvette Robles for representing all of us Boricuas!

This item arrived stained and dingy. The t-shirt itself has a stain on it and the color is absolutely nothing like the photo. The product detail has my image on a white tank top; however, the tank top that arrived looks like it was washed with a bunch of brown clothes and has a dirty look to it, aside from the stain. I took a picture of a Gildan white t-shirt I own (thats been washed several times already) with the tank top I received to show how dingy the tank looks. I've opened a ticket regarding a refund or replacement on this item and still have yet to hear back from anyone. Yet again, not a good first impression for this company.
Watercolour painting in impressionist expressionist style of a bullfighting scene
Miki, a long short story... Miki is a professional French artist, born in the Pyrenees, Her works have been sold and published worldwide. Her painting is a reflection of her life: a permanent oscillation between light and shadow, lines and shapes, times and places, always looking for that equilibrium which she can only find in continuous movement, in the mysterious and the unknown. A life divided between two passions: mathematics and painting. The first as a supreme form of abstract art ruling her universe... The second as a way of cementing the beauty of that art. Miki, about herself: "... Passionate. Impatient. Unappeasable, uncontrollable! I prefer dancing on a volcano rather than to sit at home! I love the...

Hey Core,
So I've been a member for awhile now...and I made a post several years ago of some sketches I had done (Which I was pretty proud of at the time!) I've since graduated from ASU with an ID degree, and throughout my education I was pretty focused on improving my sketching ability. These are the 2 pages I posted on Core almost 7 years ago...
I was always interested in drawing cars, so I'll probably show a majority of my car sketches but I might throw in some of my school stuff as well. I'd love to get some critique on how I can improve! I use a Wacom Intuos3 and Sketchbook Pro for sketches, Photoshop for color/renders.
And I had a made a little video of the above page being sketched out, it's sped up quite a bit but you can sort of see my process...or more just how I keep refining/editing the sketches to "fix" them as best I can. I know I've still got some issues with cars in perspective (That bottom right one bothers me haha)
(Strugglin' with the embedded video stuff, lol)
So these are just some of my sketches, I can upload some renders I've done as well....I wanted to focus on sketching/proportions before moving into color/value. But I still try and render cars every so often. Feedback would be extremely appreciated!
Have a great day,

I'm soft, sweet, and caring. I'm a sexy, sultry vixen. I can be most
things to most people... it must be the Gemini in me, hehe. I'm
intelligent, laid back, witty, and incredibly silly when the need
arises. I grew up and lived most of my life in Canada. I love sex. I
love hot, sweaty, dirty sex. I love being thrown onto the couch, ass up
in the air and fucked with full force.
My favourite thing in the world is to roleplay. All sorts... anything
you can think of. I'm quite submissive by nature, but I do have a bratty
side for the cuckold or sissly slut. I can be your darling princess, or
your sexy whore. If you want someone that's slutty with a softer side
then give me a call. You won't regret it.
The violet of purple colour came.
Dyed in the blood she made my heart to shed.
In brief: all flowers from her their virtue take;
From her sweet breath their sweet smells do proceed;
The living heat which her eyebeams doth make
Warmeth the ground and quickeneth the seed.
The rain, wherewith she watereth the flowers,
Falls from mine eyes, which she dissolves in showers.

|Attention: DocWiki has reached EOL and will be decommissioned late January 2019.
Courtesy callback is not offered, when EWT in the ICM is set more than 30 minutes
From DocWiki
|Problem Summary
| Courtesy callback is not offered, when EWT in the ICM is set more than 30 minutes.
Consider the following scenario:
When a TDM caller makes a call, a callback is offered and accepted. The callback is initiated and the caller answers the call. After 250-260 sec the callback entry on the Reporting Server portal gets erased and as a result no Courtesy Callback is offered.
|Possible Cause
|When EWT in the ICM is set more than 30 minutes, the callback entry on the Reporting Server gets erased and as a result the Courtesy Callback is not offered. This is because the Gateway terminates the VRU leg by sending BYE which Unified CVP uses for any callback. As a result, Unified CVP erases all call details of the call and as result the callback is not made. It is found that a possible SIP session time out causes this behavior.
|Recommended Action
| The following configuration has to be made on the Ingress gateway/CUBE:
voice service voip sip min-se 7200 session-expires 7200
|In addition to the above configuration the session expire in the CUCM should also be changed to a higher value (7200), otherwise the callback will fail in Unified CVP due to SIP error response 422(session expire value too low) from Gateway.

Steroids in baseball: an old issue needs to be revisited
Upon first glance, the two recent suspensions of Melky Cabrera and Bartolo Colon for failed drug tests indicates baseball is finally doing something about a steroid issue that, for years, ravaged a league without a steroid policy.
Much of the achievements by players and teams in the 1990s and early 2000s will be questioned thanks to a lack of regulation from Major League Baseball and after-the-fact revelations that accused some of the biggest names of that time of using performance-enhancing drugs. Baseball first started doing something about steroid use in 2002, when it created a steroid policy that resulted in treatment – not suspensions – for players testing positive for performance enhancing drugs. The MLB was the only pro sports league without a drug policy at the time.
Then, the league was rocked by the BALCO scandal that revealed widespread usage of steroids among greats such as Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Roger Clemens. As a result of the evidence presented in a book, Game of Shadows, and a federal investigation, commissioner Bud Selig pushed the league to adopt stronger punishments for proven steroid users.
The harsher terms were met by resistance from the MLB Players Association, and the MLB adopted a still-lenient policy of 10-day suspensions for a first offense, 30-day suspensions for second offense, 60-day suspensions for a third offense and a one-year suspension for a fourth offense. But after dozens of players continued to test positive for PEDs, Bud Selig pushed the MLBPA until, in 2005, it adopted the current policy of a 50-game suspension for a first offense, 100-game suspension for a second offense and lifetime ban for a third offense.
Over the last three years, it seems the drug problem in Major League Baseball was starting to resolve itself, as only seven players were suspended through the 2009-2011 seasons for positive PED tests (although former Red Sox Manny Ramirez was suspended twice – once in 2009 and once in 2011).
But things are taking a turn for the worse in 2012. Guillermo Mota was suspended in May for 100 games after a second positive PED test, and in the span of one week, Cabrera and Colon became the fourth and fifth players respectively to be suspended for PED use this season.
Their suspensions were both for excess levels of testosterone and follow close on the heels of a disputed positive test from Ryan Braun, who avoided suspension after saying his test sample was not properly handled. Braun's appeal was the first successful appeal of a steroid suspension by an MLB player.
But with two testosterone suspensions in one week and increasing positive tests for performance-enhancing drugs from some of the game's higher profile players, baseball needs to reconsider its punishments for positive tests.
In the aftermath of Cabrera's suspension, many in the media argued that testosterone testing is not strong enough in baseball, a complaint the MLB addressed by issuing a press release defending its testing methods.
And despite positive tests and suspensions for Ramirez and Mota, both used steroids again. Since Mota's first positive test in 2006, he has signed six contracts worth a total of $10,025,000. So he missed 150 games in the meantime. How much does that matter when you're making over $10 million dollars in six years?
Ramirez made out pretty well too. After his positive test in 2009, Ramirez finished out a contract with the Dodgers that paid him $18,695,006 and then signed a $2,020,000 with the Rays for the 2011 season.
Alex Rodriguez, an admitted steroid user who tested positive in 2003 (but was never suspended since suspensions for steroid use did not exist at the time), signed a $200-million contract after acknowledging he used performance-enhancing drugs.
While teams likely cannot get away with refusing to sign players who have tested positive for PED usage, players continue to enjoy high salaries and therefore do not have much reason to be deterred from steroid usage. Sure, Ramirez saw a drastic salary drop from his time with the Dodgers to his contract with the Rays, but he was also known as a problem player and was not producing at a level consistent with a high salary (he hit .298 with nine home runs and 42 RBIs – a career low – in 2010).
Baseball is certainly punishing its players who test positive for steroids – Oakland and San Francisco fans definitely feel that – but is the league really hitting the players where it hurts? With two suspensions in one week, now looks to be the perfect time for the league to re-examine its policies.

Welcome to our Wednesday edition of Would You Read On?. We appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to stop by our blog. Kindly comment if you would read on or not. Last week's contributing author is revealed below this first page.
First Page:
Spaghetti legs, Daddy called them, spindly appendages that kinked when stressed—like now.
Samantha Knowles leaned against the table for support as Bailiff Don Hunter came to the front of the courtroom. "All rise." Judge Normandy entered, his limp necessitating a much longer plod from his chamber to the bench. Soon, the wait would end—three years of sleepless nights, endless days of preparation, postponements, and courtroom theatrics by defense attorneys. After three interminable years, Justice would now show its face.
As the judge took his bench, the crowd silenced to await his summation. Sam glanced at the defendant's table where a calm Harlan Styles sat, a wart on the cheek of humanity, an insulated icicle against the rising heat, tried and convicted—the rest up to Normandy's guillotine.
She fingered her notes, though she didn't need to see them—the image of Kiley's tiny, battered body tattooed on Sam's brain, a brazen scar, indelibly petrified.
Judge Normandy spewed his rhetoric—penal codes entwined with case facts, cold, distanced from the victim, yet succulent to Sam's ears. In spite of their dry, unflavored essence, she feasted on his words—each pursuant finding heaped upon the other and topped with the last morsel, "The court can find no other just rendering than life imprisonment."
Victory should taste better, like syrup over pancakes—not this metallic aftertaste.

First Bridgeport baby of 2013 a timely gift
st. vincent's medical center
BRIDGEPORT -- Little Michelle Udumukwu has an exquisite sense of timing.
Her birth at St. Vincent's Medical Center at 4:39 a.m. Tuesday saved her mother from surgery.
Michelle was born a few hours after her mother, Rhoda Udumukwu, attended a New Year's Eve church service and was the first baby born in the city in 2013.
"I was scheduled to have a cesarean section on Thursday, but now that looks like the day I'll be discharged," Udumukwu said Tuesday afternoon. "I was crying when the doctor told me that I might have to have the C-section; I had my first that way, and I didn't want to go through that again."
Udumukwu said she attended the church service with her niece and her niece's husband, where there had been "a lot of jumping, yelling and singing. I think that helped."
She spurned the offer of a wheelchair and walked through the hospital lobby to the elevators about 2:15 a.m.
"The receptionist actually asked me what I was there for, I was so calm," Udumukwu said. "My due date was Jan. 2, but all of my children were early, and I was expecting a Christmas baby," she said.
Udumukwu, who is from Nigeria, arrived in Bridgeport to stay with relatives when she was 33 weeks pregnant, after having her first two children in Nigeria.
One of the reasons she came here was she thought she'd have the best chance at a natural birth. Her company provides excellent health benefits, Udumukwu said, and many Nigerian women travel to have their children.
Trevor, 6, and Nicole, 4, will meet their new sister when they come here during the Easter break, their mom said. Udumukwu's husband will join her here in about two weeks, she said.
The family, including Udumukwu's mother, received the news of Michelle's birth Tuesday morning.
As a marketing employee of Total Corp., a multinational oil company based in France, Udumukwu will have three months of paid maternity leave. She also has a month of "annual leave.''
"I am saving some of that, because we'll need a family vacation after this," Udumukwu said.
Although she was the first in the city, Michelle missed being the first baby of 2013 in the region by more than four hours. Kelly Johnson, of Durham, gave birth to a daughter at 12:06 a.m. in Yale-New Haven Hospital, spokesman Mark D'Antonio said.
There was a birth at Norwalk Hospital at 12:58 a.m., nursing supervisor Cathy Dunn said, but the mother declined to allow her name or the gender of her baby to be released to the media.
At midday, no babies had been born at Bridgeport Hospital, spokesman John Cappiello said. The first baby, a boy, didn't come until 12:44 p.m. Tuesday.
"It's very unusual for us to be 12 hours into the new year with no babies born," he said.
Griffin Hospital in Derby, Milford Hospital and the Hospital of St. Raphael in New Haven reported no births by midday Tuesday.

A winner was selected from 98 designs submitted by 18 freelance designers.
San Francisco Chiropractic
I am an established chiropractor who has a small clinic (1,700 sq. ft) in downtown San Francisco. My current website is ranked well in Google local search and is getting 10+ hits a day, but it is not converting as well as I like it to. I am certain it has something to do with "old look" of my site.
I have intermediate knowledge of HTML and graphic design
People between the ages of 22-55 who have back pain, neck pain, or extremity pain. They are mostly professional white collar workers in the downtown area of San Francisco.
-Looking for originality; please don't base your design on current design submissions.
-Clean and elegant look is a must. Must not appear too "crowded."
-A modern logo font that implies quality and reputation is essential.
-Corporate color is burgundy (crimson).
-Looking for some depth; i.e. more than just all straight lines.
-Need a letterbox media player that shows a flash slideshow of 5-6 pictures I will provide to you.
-Need a small opt-in box that says "Join our mailing list and instantly receive a FREE video course, Essential Exercises and Stretches for a Healthy Back."
-Include three feature boxes (with graphics) in the lower half of the page whose topics will be: Dan Perez, D.C. (a short bio of me); Our Office (features of my office); Your First Visit (description of a patient's first visit).
I will provide the content for these boxes.
Please add Social Media buttons at the bottom (Facebook, Twitter, Delicious), and a big, attractive Contact button that will link to a contact form.
Add the following text elements (I suggest using fonts with fill and shadow):
Experienced Care for Back, Neck and Extremity Pain
Call (415) 627-9077
New Patient Special: $70
(includes exam, first treatment and coupon for one FREE massage)
Reserve some space for text (I will provide content later).
I basically need a design for the homepage, and a design template for the sub-pages that complements the home page.
Here is my old website: http://www.sf-chiro.com.

For Carless Trips to the Grocery Store: The Playmarket Go Up Shopping Trolley
I think I've just discovered the ultimate shopping cart for us carless folks. The Go Up Trolley from Spanish company Playmarket is durable, practically indestructible, easy to maneuver, with a (very) large capacity main bag and a thermal pouch. And it folds down. If you think it looks like a stroller, you're not wrong. That's part of what makes the design so clever and useful:
The wheels are the unique aspect of this particular shopping cart: it has two fixed wheels in the back and two heavy swivel wheels in front (like a stroller), which make it super easy to maneuver in any direction regardless of how heavy you've packed it.
I don't own one of these carts myself, but I've heard rave reviews. The whole thing can hold up to 10.5 gallons, including the 2.5 gallon capacity in the front thermal bag. The main compartment liner is removable and washable (pretty essential when you're shlepping groceries!), while the front padded handlebar adjusts to three heights.
This is a serious shopping cart and priced that way ($150), so it's meant for people who walk their groceries multiple blocks and need something durable and sturdy, a cart that won't tip over when they hit a bump in the sidewalk or let go of the handle for a second.
Do you have this trolley? It's available in a few stateside stores, including Zabar's, The Container Store, and Bed, Bath, and Beyond:
Buy It! The Playmarket Go Up Shopping Trolley/Cart, $149.98 at Zabar's
