The [Wednesday] PapersJust as I'm writing this Wednesday afternoon, the city has released a trove of documents in the Laquan McDonald murder case showing in part that Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke lied to and disobeyed orders from his supervisors. I'll need time to read the reports myself and absorb the coverage, so more on that tomorrow. - Brown Out/In "Brown didn't report to work for 18 months." Nice work if you can't get it. * You'd think with that kind of track record he'd have been promoted to Cook County by now. - Rush Job Rush (D-AT&T) hasn't exactly been in great health himself the past few years. Then again, it's been hard to notice given that he does nothing but talk smack on the taxpayer's dime. Anyway . . . "Rush, 72, who chairs the Illinois Kamala Harris campaign . . . commented during a discussion about the Democratic primary battle at a meeting with the Chicago Sun-Times Editorial Board." Why am I even reading this? The things I do for you people. * "My candidate, she's not out of the race, but she's got to be more energetic, more engaging, alright?" Rush said. Isn't that the closest thing to real news here? State chair calls on his presidential candidate to step it up. Meanwhile, not a word on what he told the editorial board regarding his plans should he win another term (or an accounting of the wasted terms he's been piling up for years now), the ostensible reason he was there in the first place. - Aurora Bore All Of Us Use the Tip Line at the bottom of this column. - Everyone Made Money Off My NCAA Career Except Me - Ginger Baker In The Beachwood His work in the 1960s with the bands Cream and Blind Faith made him a defining figure of many basic rock band concepts: the "power trio," the "supergroup," the "drum solo," "jamming," "double-kick drumming" and - much to his trademark chagrin - an early thruway for "heavy metal." You'll have to click through to get to those 15 songs. Meanwhile, here are three times Ginger Baker appeared on this site: * Here Lies Rock 'N' Roll, May 2007 Higgins says one of the film's highlights is a "candid" interview with Cream drummer Ginger Baker, who speaks casually of the drug-filled circumstances surrounding Hendrix's death from a sleeping pill overdose as well as his own simultaneous close call with the Reaper: * Ginger Baker's Jazz Confusion at City Winery in The Week In Chicago Rock, June 2014. * Ginger Baker's Jazz Confusion at Thalia Hall in The Week In Chicago Rock, June 2015. - New on the Beachwood today . . . U.S. Killing Children In Afghanistan Quagmire * The Real Climate Crisis Hypocrites * Illinois Dairy Recap - ChicagoReddit TIL Lincoln Park used to be the official city cemetery before it was a park, and the ground there is still filled with old, unmarked graves. from r/chicago - ChicagoGram - ChicagoTube Art Therapy at the School of the Art Institute. - BeachBook Samuel Little Is The Most Prolific Serial Killer In U.S. History. Most of His Victims Were Black Women. * For The First Time In History, U.S. Billionaires Paid A Lower Tax Rate Than The Working Class Last Year.
