A Chicago #Cop Is Accused of Lying Under Oath 44 Times. Now #Prosecutors Are Dropping Cases That Relied on His Testimony.
Former #Chicago officer Jeffrey Kriv faces charges for #perjury and #forgery after getting out of dozens of #traffic violations by claiming his girlfriend had stolen his car.
Now, cases that stem from #arrests Kriv made are in jeopardy.
For years I've wanted to go to #Chicago and do a tour of #streetfood / #workingclass food entirely by bike. I also want to explore the inland waterways.
I'd love to take my own bike via #amtrak from NY, find a place to stay, and GoPro the whole thing.
I've started my map. That's always the first step.
This is a story about #manufacturing competitiveness in the US.
About the Manufacturing USA initiative.
About the MxD innovation center in #Chicago (formerly known as DMDII).
And, about my frustrations that have festered for some time.
Out of respect for some of the people that I know personally that were employed there (who I will not name), this is a story that I had kept to myself for some time.
But now it is time to share, for a variety of reasons.
I hear everyone at ORD (O'Hare International) was sent to the #tornado shelters again tonight, which means they are running everyone back through security now. #Chicago#ILwx#SevereWeather
I asked #Tmobile if they have larger data plans for my cellular #iPadPro, since I use it around #Chicago quite a bit and while traveling, and I don’t like being tethered to wifi hotspots anymore (try it, it’s amazing. But of course, you have to pay).
They upgraded my previous 5GB plan to unlimited for the same price ($20/month) ‼️
Then I checked Settings to see if the plan updated.
Pretty stoked that today, which also happens to be #nationalbucketlistday , I will be checking Wrigley Field off of my stadium list. Can’t stand the Astros but excited to visit the park. Any recs from #chicago locals are welcome. #wrigleyfield#cubs#mlb
In the states there are generally two types of Taiwanese restaurants: street food bbtea spots, and casual restaurant fare. A lot of restaurants that serve Taiwanese food tend to be Chinese takeout restaurants that Taiwanese people opened and serve some distinctly Taiwanese dishes in the menu. Only more recently have some restaurants been explicitly calling themselves out as Taiwanese. Anyway. If you're in #Chicago , here are a couple dishes you'd find.
Here's an old photo of Chicago from a family album - not sure of the exact date, but likely around the 1920s-1930s. I think I see the Tribune tower, and maybe 333 N. Michigan Ave, but not sure where to go from there. Feel free to chip in if you figure it out! #history#photography#chicago#chicagohistory
Good morning. The ER was not exactly where I planned on spending my afternoon and evening into the wee hours. The good/bad news is that they discovered nothing wrong. Yet another medical mystery in my life. I have too many of those. #today#photography#health#Chicago
Meanwhile, in #Chicago: "heat indices range from 110F to locally 120F degrees at press time, with an earlier hourly heat index observation of 118F
at Chicago O'Hare (100T/79Td). With a peak heat index near 116F
yesterday, Chicago O'hare has officially logged 2 consecutive days with heat indices above 115F. " (per NWS Chicago) #ILwx
Via een VPN verbinding live de #marathon van #Chicago aan het kijken. Sifan #Hassan won haar eerste marathon in London en loopt op het moment afwisselend P1 en P2.
21k tijd 1h05m, beide dus onder het wereldrecord op het moment!
Als ze dit flikt staat er werkelijk geen maat op haar. Heel bizar om te zien hoe makkelijk het haar voor alsnog lijkt af te gaan.
