Are you mad about the 'No on 1' vote in Maine?
2009-11-04 22:00:00 Photo Credit: mattitude Are you mad about the "No on 1" vote in Maine that took away the rights LGBT Mainers to get married? You should be, because it's the first time that a law passed by the legislation, giving rights to the LGBT, was voted down by the people of the state. You may feel as though you don't have any impact on what happens in Maine, but you do have an impact on what happens right here in Illionois. Heather Steans recently introduced a Marriage Equality Bill in the Illinois Senate - and if you think about it, the same thing that happened in Maine could happen here - no civil rights for the LGBT Community.

Vita Nelson: A vote for Abbott (ABT)
2009-09-17 06:00:00 In her excellent The MoneyPaper, editor Vita Nelson looks to stocks offering dividend reinvestment plans. Here, she highlights Abbott Labs (NYSE: ABT), a holding in her portfolio."Abbott is a diversified, multinational, health care firm.The shares have not responded to the recent stock market rallies in part due to the defensive nature of health care stocks. "Uncertainty regarding health care reform is also a factor in the static share price of recent months. ABT shares are now trading below 11 times 2010 earnings estimates, compared with about 15 for the S&P 500. "So the stock is trading at a discount of almost 30%. Historically, ABT shares have traded at a premium to the S&P."The firm enjoys a number of growth platforms and has moved into the #3 position in coronary stents, has a major product in the biologic Humira, and has developed a strong business in nutritionals in emerging countries.

Rock the Vote Nights - DJ Mia Moretti, Caitlin Moe, and GZA Live at the Har
2009-08-11 00:10:00 Saturday night was over capacity at the Hard Rock Hotel as lines formed down and around Michigan Avenue.

Chicago Tribune nightlife columnist Luis Arroyave was telling Tibs & I that it was so packed he had to sneak in through the China Grill kitchen just to make it in (mind the fact that he was sent to cover the event!).I managed to scrap some phenomenal footage from the night in the form of a duet by non other than DJ Mia Moretti & Caitlin Moe!

John McCain to vote his conscience
2009-08-04 02:52:00 Before we jump on Sen. John McCain's (R-Ariz.) bones for supposedly disrespecting the Miguel EstradaHispanic community by announcing today that he is opposing the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor, perhaps we should review the record.The same folks who today can conceive of no other reason why conservatives oppose Sotomayor than their supposed loathing of Latinos should read his complete statement. In it, McCain reminds us of the nasty campaign waged by the left wing against Miguel Estrade, a Latino who was nominated by President George W. Bush to the D.C. appeals court:However, an excellent resume and an inspiring life story are not enough to qualify one for a lifetime of service on the Supreme Court. ...
McCain will vote against Sotomayor
2009-08-04 01:24:00 John McCain is just the latest Republican to say he won't vote for Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. Now the senator is from a state, Arizona, that is almost 30 percent Latino and maybe he's not interested in winning next time. Last week, I wrote a blog post about what Republicans stand to lose by alienating Latino voters by voting against Sotomayor.Juan Andrade, president of the U.S. Hispanic Leadership Institute based in Chicago, has been circulating an email this week telling Latinos to call and email their senators to tell them their vote matters to the Latino community."They're convinced that we as a community do not have the guts to fight for something as historic as confirming Judge Sotomayor.

Hawks Should Vote No To Chelios
2009-06-24 04:54:00 The week of the NHL draft is supposed to be about focusing on future stars, not 47-year old former all-stars. However, with the news on Monday that the Detroit Red Wings have shown Chris Chelios the door, it was inevitable that his name would once again start being associated with the Chicago Blackhawks. Chelios hasn't had this much play in Chicago since the Blackhawks traded him to the Red Wings on March 23, 1999. Who could have imagined that ten years later he'd be the topic of a sports radio poll in Chicago? WMVP-AM 1000 asked it's listeners if the Hawks should bring Chelios back. Out of over 1,800 votes, 45% percent of respondents actually said yes. Are Chicago...
Blackhawk Fans Vote Havlat Team MVP
2009-06-20 22:31:00 Chicago Blackhawk fans voted Martin Havlat as the team's Most Valuable Player over Jonathan Toews, Nikolai Khabibulin, Duncan Keith and Patrick Kane (listed in order of vote totals). Not sure which is more surprising - that Havlat won or that Kane finished last out of the five. Havlat has never been a fan favorite in his time with the Hawks. Limited time, at that. The past season was the first in which he stayed relatively healthy and showed off some of his skill. Obviously, Blackhawk fans where impressed. It is possible the fans are sending a message to GM Dale Tallon as he considers the free agent's future with the club. While viewed as a risk considering past health concerns, a...
