Apparently shopping comes with a high price in the City of Carson-a very smelly one. An agreement involving contractor Javier Weckman and the city’s redevelopment agency which was approved by the Carson City Council in 2006 is now being put into action. The arrangement will allow construction crews to turn a former Carson City dump into a shopping center.

It is customary for airline travelers to tip skycaps for what some might blindly say a small job, but if you ask most passengers they would tell you that amid the chaotic atmosphere of a typical American Airport, the aid of a skycap is anything but irrelevant. Handling a nations’ worth of bags, weaving wheelchairs of the handicapped through almost ever-present heavy traffic full of seemingly disoriented people scurrying to their terminals, and directing vehicles to almost hidden destinations, are just some of the services skycaps provide to frequent flyers .
