  1. Is Daley building an "elitist city"? Dorothy Brown, mayoral challenger, thinks so.
  2. A gunman opened fire at Pizza Nova in Little Village. Three teens were shot, one was killed.
  3. If you're going to adopt some kids you might want to make sure you're married first, or at least make sure your name is on the papers. Otherwise, you've probably got no custody rights when you and your girlfriend break up.
  4. Lovie Smith had a press conference today just to say they haven't reached a decision in regard to Tank Johnson.
  5. We know you think your rent is high — we think ours is too. But the truth is that Illinois is not even in the top 10 most expensive states for renters in 2006.
  6. If anyone cares, Bill Rancic got engaged to Giuliana DePandi.

Thanks for the article about the upcoming election. It's true. Public housing such as the Ida Noyes home isn't really taken care of. A lot of the 'poor neighborhoods' remain run down due to apathy from the government. However, I don't agree with all of Brown's statement in the argument, especially the 'wage ordinance.' It's just not a sound economic policy (it has been done before by the US and we hit high inflations before Reagon's time.)

Umm...NewsFlash to those in Hawaii: $1200 for a two bedroom is CHEAP!

Try to find a list by county instead of state, I bet the other 90% of Illinois that isn't Chicago is dragging the average way down.

Tony, I want your job.

When I lived with roommates, we'd usually spend $800-900 for something halfway decent (either located far from a train stop or a garden apt.) $1200 feels "moderately priced" not "cheap" to me.
