When will the CTA rehab Red Line north stations?
2009-10-30 19:30:00 Joi Barnes wrote to "Going Public" wanting to know when the Sheridan Red Line stop will be rehabbed. The CTA response is after the jump. "When, if ever, does the CTA plan to update the Sheridan Red Line stop? There has been nothing done to this stop ever.There are about 50 stairs (it seems) to climb to get to the platform and no elevator or escalator. The station is old, dirty, smelly and pretty much an eyesore.I have noticed that every station has had some type of update or work done but, not this one. What is up with CTA ignoring the riders of the Sheridan stop?"...

Saturday Sales Up North
2009-10-24 19:08:00 This morning I took the scenic route on Route 41 to some sales in Lake Forest. My brother-in-law had called earlier this week to tell me about the First Presbyterian Church sale. It's on through 3pm today at 700 N. Sheridan Road, where Deerpath Rd intersects with Sheridan.Good sale for clothes, and no, they're not all preppy. Confession: I did buy a wool plaid skirt from Talbots. This man, who has three sons, bought seven suits at $15 apiece and found more sport coats for $5 .This couple got a deal on a small cabinet and table, both pieces for $40. All they need now, they said, was an apartment. Here are more photos, including the price signs from most...
Krav Maga Instructor Training - Notes from North Carolina
2009-10-24 03:10:00 I spent 5 days doing an instructor Krav Maga training at a great school in Gastonia, North Carolina (Ryan Hoover's Extreme Karate). Most of the time was lead by one of Krav's highest level instructors - Kelly Campbell. It was a comprehensive training for all the material that is part of the teaching lessons provided for Krav instructors. But most memorable were the adaptations made to several of their existing techniques and their gun stuff rocks! Krav Maga of course steps up to the plate when it comes to weapons defense more than any other system out there. They have a thorough understanding of how attacks happen and the natural responses of the attacker. Although it is not the...
Top Ten NFC North Observations
2009-10-20 12:32:00 After Sunday night's debacle of a Bears game, I'm sure many of you spent Monday morning as I did trying to figure out if we could have possibly played any worse. Granted, it was a game that would have put us back on the map in the NFC and gone a long way towards cementing our status as a legitimate playoff threat. But in reality, we're still only six games into this young season and the Bears still have plenty of time to regain some ground in their division. And that's exactly why we're giving you our Top Ten NFC North Observations Heading into Week 8 because it's the perfect time to step back and take stock of where we...

2009-09-23 04:16:00 Minnesota Vikings (2-0)From the Beats:Fans and media in Minnesota are starting to clamor for Narcissus to throw the ball downfield but Brad Childress is not budging on the team's current game plan of run, run, run, screen, run, screen, run.The world's best rush defense has struggled through the first two weeks, falling from first over the past three seasons to fifteenth. They were gashed for big gains by Kevin Smith throughout the first half Sunday.The Vikings introduced the please-make-it-go-away-Wildcat- on Sunday, pulling Brett Favre off the field entirely and lining up Percy Harvin in shotgun.My take: I've seen every snap of the Vikings early season and a few things are clear.

The Largest Green Wall in North America
2009-09-22 19:09:00 A few months back, we reported that PNC (NYSE: PNC) was in the process of installing the largest green wall in North American on the exterior of their Pittsburgh headquarters building, One PNC Plaza. Now, as you can see in this monstrous image, PNC has successfully installed the 2,380 square-foot living wall with 602 modular panels. Each 2'x2' panel has roughly 24 plants, so there’s approximately 14,448 plants covering the wall of this 30-story building. Wow! Studies show the south-facing wall is 25% cooler behind the green wall than ambient temperatures. Of the eight varieties of plants on the wall, some will change in the winter and some will bloom in the spring. It’s a beautiful display and there’s probably no more obvious way to wear your environmental commitment on your shirt sleeve. Part of that commitment includes sourcing materials locally, and PNC acquired all hardware, plants, materials, and installers within a 500-mile radius of downtown Pittsburgh. ...

Good vs Evil: One Man's North American Version
2009-08-27 14:31:00 Drugs, Drugs and more Drugs. Drug residue on American money. Kids standing in line at American Schools to get their Rx meds. "The Trenchcoat Mafia" from the Columbine School massacre were such Rx kids. Betcha didn't know that.Where does it all end?Will the natural and sometimes supernatural amongst our American population be pounded into the ground and beat to a pulp for not going along with the American drug induced "Drug Program"? Will people, kids, any old body, who are natural and sometimes supernatural be told that there is something wrong with them and it's not the American drug induced system?

Sen. Ted Kennedy passes, North Node to his natal Saturn
2009-08-26 17:14:00 The sad news about Senator Ted Kennedy's passing late last evening after his year-long battle with brain cancer was expected but sobering. Flags fly at half mast in Washington, DC, and I, the reluctant astrologer, feel compelled to see what transits were in effect to his natal chart. So far I've only found "late last night" rather than an exact time of death.Blogging time is brief again today (tomorrow will be better), but there is the senator's Saturn in his first house @ 29Cap49, with the transiting NN 29Cap43, pointing and saying that Saturn the Timekeeper has run out the clock. Venus 29Can22 opposes at the tr South Node, and conjunct the current Solar Eclipse degree of 29Can27. His was the system that failed (7.21.09 Solar Ecl = 'systems fail.')Sen. Kennedy's natal North Node 26Pis15 in n 2nd house has a planetary visitor as well: Uranus 25Pis30; Sun 2 - 3 Virgo approaches his problematic Moon 6Vir25 and Neptune 6Vir44 conjunction in 8th house.Last last night (using 11:30 ...
Fund scandal clips North Shore

So it goes in this tale of a former Continental Bank executive and Winnnetka resident who's accused by the feds and a bunch of rich Chicagoans (among others) of defrauding the investors in his $500 million hedge fund....
Ollie North asked about Rex 84 during Iran Contra hearings - video
2009-08-23 10:43:00 This video from the Iran Contra 'hearings' shows Oliver North bristling and - pardon my French - clamming up his pie hole as Rep. Jack Brooks, a Democrat from Texas, questions him about his NSC work on the martial law provisions of FEMA to suspend the US Constitution and round up troublemakers during domestic emergencies of any kind which the government deems declarable as such.The problem is these jolly days, we don't know the difference between emergencies and trumped up, sexed up emergencies! What they call 'false flag ops' are perpetrated only abroad, never here in hallowed America...or are they? With Reagan on the lofty perch, came the auspiciously Orwellian year of 1984 when there appeared a plan named Rex 84. Almost as soon as Reagan was sworn in, he appointed Louis Giuffrida as head of FEMA. You'll hear the rest in the video, if you don't know it already. (And it was at 12:05 pm est on Jan 20, 1981 that Jimmy Carter says a secret agent whispered in his ear that the Ir...

Clinton-styled Swagger in North Korea

This will officially erase memories of his trespasses against his wife, with Ms. Lewinsky. Laura Ling and Euna Lee returning to States.I've always liked President Clinton - but this seals the deal totally. Diplomacy can never be underestimated because nobody gets hurt.

Five Reasons the Bears Won't Win the North
2009-07-24 07:08:00 A 9-7 teams adds a quarterback, outside linebacker, aging offensive tackle, unproven guard and 0-16 coach and suddenly they're going to the Super Bowl? That better be some quarterback. Without further adieu, here are the five reasons the Bears won't win the division in 2009.#5. They start 0-2The Packers had an awful 2008 but it was also a season they let get away. If the Bears were to lose to their oldest rival at Lambeau in primetime to start the season, it wouldn't be unforgivable. If they lost (as they'll be predicted to do) the following week against the world champions, would this coaching staff and group of players be able to handle the subsequent fan and media pressure?#4.

Showings of the Week: North Center
2009-07-24 04:11:00 On Tuesday, @properties' Joe Sicililiano showed me five very different units in the North Center area. From new construction to a home that looks like a barn, the neighborhood has a lot to offer. The new construction Lofts at 1800 contained an impressive mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom units sandwiched between the Brown Line and Metra tracks on the site of an old cap and gown factory in the 1800 block of West Grace. Buyers can choose from wood or concrete lofts, but the preference has been for wood so far, said a salesman for the developer. Thirty-one of the 90 units have been sold, including several one-bedrooms that went for a steeply discounted rate of $255,000 on the same level...

It's bordered by California Ave. on the west, Montrose on the north, Addison on the south and Ashland on the east south of Irving Park, or Clark north of Irving Park.

Vacant Lot Gardens in North Lawndale

ETF looks north of the border
2009-06-12 06:00:00 For those seeking some international exposure, but also concerned about investing outside the US, Leonard Goodall suggests iShares MSCI Canada (ASE: EWC) in No-Load Portfolios."We know many investors who are hesitant to invest in securities of other countries. This 'domestic bias' may be injurious to their financial health, especially if the dollar suffers a long-term decline and the US economy remains sluggish over many years."One rather easy entry point that can be acceptable to all but the most foreign-phobic is to invest in securities of our neighbor to the north: Canada."While it's true that our economies are very much dependent upon one another, the Canadian economy has its own strengths that point to a measure of long-term independence and success."Canada has a breadth of resources that are the envy of most countries.

Ford didn't cancel plans to bring the Focus RS to North America!
2009-06-08 03:48:00 One bit of news last month that we meant to comment on was (in early May) the news that Ford was allegedly planning to bring the Focus RS to the United States, and then at the end of May that Ford had canceled those plans. We were laughing so loud at these two news stories - picked up all over the web and even in Britain - that we were rolling around on the floor. Folks, there weren't any plans to cancel - as anybody in the press should have known. The Focus RS can't be brought to the North America because: 1) the certification process would take a year or more, and b) the current Focus will be replaced by a remodeled car inside of two years (and that's the one which will be built here, at long last).
