  1. Deirdre Capone softens a notorious icon

    What's in a name? If you're a Chicagoan and your surname is Capone, everything. There is perhaps no more notorious name associated with the city (except perhaps Gacy, or for a time, Bartman). Growing up, Deirdre Marie Capone lived what she calls a "shame-based existence" and struggled with her family ties to one of the towering crime bosses of the 20th century.

  2. An unhinged Chicago intrudes

    Chicago is brassy and muscular and loves, maybe <em>lives</em>, to strut into most any spotlight. The barons and baronesses of commerce, the occasional Bulls star, a corrupt governor or two, the mono-named TV hostess, the vicious snowstorms &mdash; they matter to the world, so the rest of us Chicagoans matter, too. Toured our Art Institute yet? Care to see to Al Capone's grave?

  3. Marijuana legalization bill may threaten fabulous Prohibition II profits

    With Valentine's Day still fresh in our minds, thoughts naturally turn to retired Army Gen. John T. Thompson of Newport, Ky., who helped give America one of its most vivid memories of that holiday. After serving in two wars, Thompson saw a need for a...

  4. Cardinal Mahony's removal not enough, church critics say

    L.A. NOW
    Los Angeles Archbishop Jose Gomez's decision to relieve Cardinal Roger M. Mahony of all public duties over his mishandling of clergy sex abuse of children decades ago does not go far enough, some abuse victim advocates said Friday. David Clohessy,......

  6. Dave Barry has snakes on the brain

    As is widely stipulated, Dave Barry is a very funny guy. He was hysterical when he wrote his nationally syndicated column for the Miami Herald, for which he won a Pulitzer Prize in 1988, and is arguably even more droll in his madcap novels set in South Florida. The latest of these, &ldquo;Insane City&rdquo; &mdash; his first solo fiction in a decade after a best-selling series of Peter Pan tales co-written with Ridley Pearson &mdash; features the usual Barryesque panoply of ribald pranksters, addled taxi drivers, gangsters, strippers and pimps. There's also a big wedding coming up, said nuptials potentially interrupted by the arrival of a raft carrying a desperate Haitian refugee and her two children, an orangutan named Trevor and an 11-foot albino Burmese python named Blossom. Hilarity ensues, naturally, although with more than a wisp of serious content hiding in Barry's well-constructed thicket of comedy.

  7. The Enabler: Love and whiskey at the Blind Donkey

    The Enabler has been fixating on love. What is it? How to find it? What feeds it? The answer to this last question, she is quite certain, is whiskey. Which is why on a recent evening she found herself contemplatively sipping a glass of 127-proof Four Roses cask strength single barrel bourbon at Pasadena's new whiskey bar, the Blind Donkey.

  8. Stony Brook's Pikiell Building A Successful Program On Long Island

    It takes a lot to get Steve Pikiell to slump in his seat. For a negative thought to creep into his head, it must be powerful.
    The Hartford Courant
    It takes a lot to get Steve Pikiell to slump in his seat. For a negative thought to creep into his head, it must be powerful. On March 3, 2006, Pikiell's Teflon-coated optimism was briefly scratched. He had completed his first season as head coach at...

  9. Division Street bathhouse reopens as Red Square

    If there's something Chicago and Russia have in common, it might be the January forecasts. Enter a cure for the tundra-like weather: Red Square Russian Bathhouse (1914 W. Division St., 773-227-2284), housed in the historic building that used to be Division Street Russian and Turkish Baths.

  10. Movie gangsters so bad they're good

    One hundred and one years ago, D.W. Griffith gave us "The Musketeers of Pig Alley," often credited as the first gangster film, and once sound came in, nothing hooked movie audiences during the early 1930s more reliably than Edward G. Robinson or James Cagney doing harm to their rivals and, for a while, eluding the law while enjoying the spoils of their own private wars.

  11. Film review: 'Gangster Squad' is no 'Chinatown'

    It's hard to resist Los Angeles-based films noir -- "Chinatown," "Kiss Me Deadly," "The Big Sleep" being only a few of the best -- but "Gangster Squad" is a bit more resistible than most. Director Ruben Fleischer and screenwriter Will Beall have morphed Paul Lieberman's nonfiction book of the same name into something a good deal more fictional.
