ABOUT JUDICIAL ELECTIONS
Every couple years Rogers Park is flooded by judicial candidates seeking our votes. Selecting competent, experienced and independent judges is a serious matter. However, newspapers and broadcast media provide virtually no coverage or analysis of judicial candidates. The Chicago Tribune is expected to issue its endorsements in all judicial races soon, but for the most part the Trib’s coverage is limited to one paragraph of text concerning each race. Many individual candidates are ignored, mentioned in only one sentence, or listed in a sentence that starts: "Other candidates are: …" Since the Sun-Times apparently does not want to issue endorsements any more, do not look for any coverage there. What’s to do?More…

Building Paranoia in Rogers Park
By Larry Shure: A few years ago I found a great collection of essays in a book titled, Architecture of Fear (1997), which contained the article “Building Paranoia,” by Steven Flusty. It was adapted from a paper published for the Los Angeles Forum for Architecture in 1994 and develops a vocabulary for describing the kinds of spaces he saw being created throughout the L.A. region. I remember reading this chapter, shuddering, and being thankful that I don’t live in L.A. Read more at Larry's Blog: Ultra Local Geography

Two weeks after gang murders, a reason for youth to dance in Rogers Park
By Bob Spoerl
They jived and dipped and grooved and spun and yelled and swayed and made the wind at times seem a step behind.
The “they” are creative dancers living and performing in Rogers Park.
One night after the Grammy's, a group of young dancers from the neighborhood known as 808s -- the name is an ode to loud hip hop music, 808 being the penal code for noise violation -- teamed up with a professional dance company from the far North Side, Phoenix Rising, to produce a dance show called "Lover's Lane."
It was only several weeks after two young men were shot and killed near Howard Street in Rogers Park.
