First, a programming note: I’ll be on WBEZ’s Afternoon Shift today.
Second, a programming note: A Papers column is not likely today. If I do produce one later and you miss it, I’ll link to it tomorrow.
Third, a programming note: We do have a few new posts elsewhere on the site today for your enjoyment, as follows.
* Chicago Jazz Win Pewter: Fourth-Place Finish In Nationals For Local Synchronized Skating Team.
“Synchronized what?” the New York Times asked recently. Click through for the link to that story and more about the Jazz.
* Local Book Notes: Quarry Farm & The Graveyard Of Empires.
Traveling from Twain to Afghanistan. Plus: The fight for the soul of public education and a new path to library amnesty.
