An investigation is continuing this week after Salem police said a three-year-old boy wandered away from a local daycare. Salem police in a statement said officers responded late last Friday morning after a US Postal Service employee reported finding the child walking along in the area of Palmer Street. Police said the child was wearing a long sleeved shirt, sweatpants and only socks on his feet. The postal worker, police said, “kept him safe” and called police.Salem police said medical crews responded to the scene and later took the child to a hospital for evaluation as a precaution. While crews remained on scene, Salem police said officers “were approached by staff from the Salem Community Childcare Inc.” who said they were looking for a child who had been in their care. A subsequent investigation, police said, showed the child in this case was the same child from Salem Community Childcare, adding that he appeared to have opened the door to his daycare around 10:45 a.m. ...Attorney for Brian Walshe asking to withdraw from case

Christopher Borrelli | Chicago Tribune (TNS)Imagine a holiday party, attended only by books. If it helps, give them little arms and legs. That’s the way to think about the best books of the year. You’ve invited a bunch of books that you can’t get out of your head to a Christmas blowout, and there were so many, it’s crowded and loud. Some guests are wild and drunk off their asses; some are formal; some are thick and popular. A few guests corner you and insist that you love them; they chew up more time than you like. You glance past them, you scan the room.You spot themes. You notice our future squashed tightly against our past — and everyone mingling with our nervous present. You see a lot of Chicago guests; it’s been one of the best years for local authors in a while. You see many good books on climate change. You see history and 2023 huddled in a heated conversation that never ends.Anyway, that’s what I see.And by the end of the night, when I’ve kicked everyone out, 10 books linger...A holiday weekend getaway to Sausalito

Craving an escape from the holiday hoopla — the hustle, the bustle, the endless to-do lists? Just over the Golden Gate Bridge, Sausalito may just be the most charming village on San Francisco Bay, and the perfect destination for a holiday day trip, winter weekend jaunt or destination for out-of-town guests.With its distinctive Mediterranean flair and famous panoramic views of the Bay and San Francisco’s city skyline, Sausalito is also known for its elegant, Victorian-era homes, rising up woodsy, steep-sided hills, and historic storefronts, many dating to a more rough-and-tumble era in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Massive marinas crowded with sailboats, yachts and colorful houseboats line the town’s waterfront, and a grand promenade with renowned seafood restaurants perched on piers beckon day-trippers with fancy food and sublime views.It’s this charming storybook setting that has made Sausalito world famous over the years, drawing throngs of weekend tourists, who crowd th...Bruins notebook: Undermanned B’s set to face high-octane Devils

Different challenges present themselves throughout the NHL season. Headed into Wednesday’s game against the Devils in New Jersey, the Bruins have themselves a whopper.The B’s will be without a good chunk of their team defense – top six center Pavel Zacha and No. 1 defenseman Charlie McAvoy when they take on the speedy, young Devils, who have climbed to fourth in the league in goal scoring at 3.54 per game.All hands will be required to be on deck to slow down the Jersey offense.“You don’t replace one of your top two centers and you don’t replace you’re top D-man with an individual,” said coach Jim Montgomery. “It’s got to be a concerted effort by everyone eating more minutes and they’ve got to do the job.”One player who will be asked to do more is Morgan Geekie. He’ll be bumping up to top six duty, skating between David Pastrnak and Jake DeBrusk, and taking over Zacha’s bumper spot on the first power play unit.He played on t...Ex-SDSU punter Matt Araiza's accuser to drop him from lawsuit alleging rape
