Extra, Extra

• Last year at least one rape happened in every Chicago neighborhood except one: Clearing.
• Because we're the Windy City*, 2 wind turbines (dare we say wind mills?) are going to be mounted on the Daley Center and 8 more are going on a building on the Near North Side. They're supposed to tell us whether wind power is practical and affordable here.
• For safety reasons, Rep. John D'Amico wants to change the IL minimum driving age from 16 to 18. Both teens & parents think it's bull.
• Newest local crazes: stealing expensive sunglasses & ballroom dancing.

* Before you start commenting, we're just having fun with the topic, we know that Chicago isn't called the Windy City because of the actual wind.
