  1. Lupe Fiasco a voice of reason amid the violence

    For Lupe Fiasco, it was in some ways a heartbreaking year. In an interview last summer with MTV he broke down as he watched a 2006 video of himself and friends in his old West Side neighborhood, the laughter and easy camaraderie undercut by the realization that a number of those acquaintances were now dead, victims of gang violence.

  3. Barry-Wehmiller has a funny way of valuing its employees

    You'd be hard pressed to find a company that talks more about its "people-centric" management culture than Barry-Wehmiller, a privately owned manufacturer of industrial equipment.

  4. Video game creator Eugene Jarvis is Player One

    The young guy in the trucker cap, skinny jeans and Air Jordans squeezed the trigger on the toy shotgun and his umpteenth round of “Big Buck Hunter” blasted to life. The guy was maybe 25 and so focused on bagging digital deer, the butt of the gun pressed hard into his shoulder, that he never noticed the tall, smiling man behind him, watching.

  5. Northwestern tackles the career (and controversies) of Tyler Perry

    There are no sacred cows on the NBC sitcom "30 Rock." The show happily skewers its own network along with any number of pop-culture phenomena, and last week's episode was no different, with a running joke aimed squarely in the direction of Tyler Perry, featuring scenes from a movie (must I say it? fictitious!) called "<a href="http://bio.tribune.com/TracyJordan">Tracy Jordan</a>'s Aunt Phatso Goes to the Hospital Goes to Jail."

  6. New look for theater group — and North Shore

    When your architect has the star wattage of Jeanne Gang, it's not easy to remain in the "quiet stage" of a major fundraising campaign for a new building. Not when speculative visual notions are showing up in an exhibition, "Building: Inside Studio Gang Architects," at the Art Institute of Chicago.

  8. Kumbaya era unravels in campaign against Obama

    She seemed embarrassed to tell me that she's voting for Mitt Romney, as if the admission might suggest that she'd been hiding racist leanings during our long friendship.

  9. Lupe Fiasco: 'I'm afraid Chicago is dying'

    Lupe Fiasco can come across as a teacher, preacher, cutup, conflicted citizen, jazz head, skilled rhyme machine and political radical.
