LOCAL Keep on Occupyin’ Source: The Chicago Tribune, by Hal Drudick On Sept. 27, NASA announced that the spot where the Mars Curiosity Rover landed used to have water that could have supported life; the pebbles found near the spot were rounded and smooth much like pebbles on earth after they have been transported for many years by water.

On Sept. 22 at the Taboo Tabou store, a Cook County prosecutor, Sarah Naughton, allegedly bit and broke the skin of a Blue Havana store man- ager’s leg after the Blue Havana staff came to aid the Taboo Tabou store in removing the intoxicated companions from the premises. Taboo Tabou store owner Thomas said Naughton and her companions became frustrated after the staff attempted to shoo them away, and an aggravated Naughton proceed- ed to use toothy violence, forcing the bitten victim to seek treatment at a nearby hospital.

On Sept. 27, Associate Judge Thomas Donnelly stated in a 37-page ruling that the 92 October 2011 arrests of members of Occupy Chicago for violating the parks’ curfew were unconstitutional. He argued that the city of Chicago routinely chooses not to enforce the parks’ curfew for events the city supports like the 2008 Election Night of Barack Obama, which had no arrests even though the event went well past curfew. City lawyers were reported to be disappointed and are planning to appeal the decision.

The comedy class is not about creating quippy one liners, but rather stories that point out the funny foibles of life.

This was my first time at the wonderful Riverfront Theater, a large circus tent (yes, you read that right, a circus tent) located just off the River and Chicago Ave. While I can’t imagine that it would have been as much fun in colder weather, I really enjoyed the carnival atmosphere. In fact, the tickets we pur-chased included a pass to a performance by El Cir-co Cheapo before the show, an offer we were happy to take advantage of. Just as an aside before we get into this thing, I would give any of their monthly performances my wholehearted recommendation.

Death Cab for Cutie’s Ben Gibbard once said (about 30 Seconds to Mars’ Jared Leto), “He’s a professional actor in music; so there’s no way to feel any sincerity about his position as a musi-cian... Because he makes a living playing charac-ters.. [he’s] also acting what you think a rock star should act like.” What’s most amusing about this is the fact that Gibbard was, at that time, engaged to be married to successful actress/successful singer Zooey Deschanel.

from: SheFinds, by Pauline MillardHas Social Media Taken Over Your Life?
I neglected writing this blog until now; fearing that would perhaps be one of the most controversial subjects that I would cover. It is a sensitive topic for most, and it enrages others. Though it is under neither of the themes of politics or religion, it is still a difficult subject to discuss. Punctuation. The Exclamation Point vs. the Period. Subconsciously, most people have developed a lackadaisical style of writing as a result of social media, blogging, and text messages. However, just because someone purchases a new car does it mean that they do not have to abide by the rules of the road?

Caution: The Truth About the Ex-clamation Point
With a battle for the top spot in the Eastern Confer-ence looming this Friday night the Fire hold their playoff destiny in their own hands. The two year playoff drought is over, now it’s just a matter of how high they can finish in the standings. Beating Sporting Kansas City for the third time this season should indicate that Chicago is the front runner and favorite to capture first place in the conference.

Playoff Math- Can the Fire Win the East?
The guy who chose Devin Hester with his first pick in our draft is undefeated in my league. That shouldn’t happen, albeit only the beginning of week four. This post will not be a personal rant about my team or my league, but this baffling truth lies at the root of my larger point: fantasy football is for masochists. Win or lose, playing fantasy football can drive you insane. Whether you are the epitome of a ranking slave, or you play your team close to the chest and always stick with your gut, you are gambling.

Think about the last time you broke up with some-one. How did that feel? Me, I’ve only had one breakup hurt so very bad. It kept me in bed all weekend... And it took me an actual year to feel like myself. Ugh. I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy. And it seems as though now science can back up why the hell it hurts so bad when you lose someone.

What the hell is going on here? Seriously, what the HELL is going on? I moved to Evanston 15 years ago for many reasons. My husband and I wanted to live near Chicago and Lake Michigan, and we also wanted to raise our family in a place filled with people and stories and cultures and interests beyond the ones we’d known growing up. Four nights ago, 14-year-old Dajae Coleman was shot and killed walking home near Evanston Township High School.

My new piece will hopefully snuff out some of that irksome hope and glee emanating from Democrats by pointing out how much harder it’ll be to win the House. This is a topic that can spin off into a mil-lion directions, and Democrats will say that they’ve baked the new Republican advantages into their own projections. But I wanted to point out how, if Barack Obama won exactly the same margins he did in 2008, he would be unable to bring along a Democratic House.

Why the White house Will Stay Republican
Emily Nussbaum, the television critic at the New Yorker, writes in an even-handed review of David Simon’s HBO series about New Orleans, Treme, which was just renewed for a shortened fourth sea-son, than an episode of the show “made me wonder if, rather than a novel or a movie, a TV show could be a poem.” It’s a perfect way of encapsulating why Treme is both important and sometimes infuriating: it’s a show that challenges our conception of what a television show can be, but that may end up reaf-firming our basic demands of the form.
