  1. Restaurants with an "interesting plainness"

    Dining@Large
    I came across this quote on the window of a store in Evanston, Ill. called Design Within Reach. First of all, I thought it was a funny place to hang that incredibly elaborate Swarovski crystal chandelier, and then I thought......

  2. Chicago landmark: Stimulus a promise

    The Swamp
    by Mark Silva When they talk about "shovel-ready'' work for that $787-billion economic stimulus that President Barack Obama signed into law, they aren't talking about the landmark high-rise in Chicago where Obama staged his transition to the White House...

  3. Drawing insight into Google's Doodles

    <span class="dateline" style="text-align: justify; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;">SAN FRANCISCO &mdash;</span> Google.com is the most visited online front door in the United States. According to Alexa, a longtime Internet statistics firm, it is also the second most visited home page in the world behind Facebook.com; roughly 40 percent of global Internet users visit Google's primary portal at least once a day. And yet, considering the culture-changing ubiquity of the Silicon Valley-based tech giant &mdash; which reported more than $50 billion in revenue last year &mdash; what a user tends to find there is famously, comically austere. It is a digital Antarctica: Sheer white for miles, no ads, no headlines, just a search bar and the Google logo.

  4. Sinfonietta premieres evocations of Chicago's dynamic skyline, in sound

    If the Chicago Symphony Orchestra can celebrate the power of rivers, why can't the Chicago Sinfonietta do the same on behalf of cities? The parallel may not have occured to Mei-Ann Chen when she was planning her season finale with the sinfonietta, but at the very least it gave the music director several musical novelties with which to conclude the orchestra's 25th season.

  5. 'Man of Steel': Superman a true Midwesterner

    Metropolis was founded in 1839 on the banks of the Ohio River, about as far south as you can go in Illinois without stepping into Kentucky. Its settlers were enthusiastic: They assumed the waterfront real estate would result in a metropolis, hence the name. They were a bit off. Metropolis became a small city (population: 6,500), though in 1972 DC Comics proclaimed it the home of Superman, and the town found its identity. So every June for the past five decades, Metropolis has hosted a four-day Superman festival (this year's concludes Sunday), the centerpiece of which &mdash; indeed the centerpiece of Metropolis &mdash; is a colorful, 15-foot-tall bronze Man of Steel, his hands poised at his hips, standing watch at the foot of the Massac County Courthouse.

  6. Rosenthal: Chicago-bound Ford creative chief wants to know what drives us

    A beautiful car is the culmination of more than a century of advances in engineering, technology and automotive design. That urge to reach out and feel its curves predates the invention of the wheel. "The shapes on most of the cars that I find people...

  7. Culture clash: New history of Chicago taps into our malaise

    "The Third Coast: When Chicago Built the American Dream" has an elegant, unflinching, non-nostalgic clarity about Chicago that you rarely see in books about Chicago.
    Thomas Dyja looked at me with abject horror, then humor, then, as his face crumbled in defeat, resignation. A face that said, "See? This is why I wrote a 412-page cultural history of Chicago at midcentury that — as much as it pulls together...

  8. 'Portrait of Jason': A raconteur gets his moment

    "Portrait of Jason" begins with a test tone and a blurry image. And then, as the screen slowly comes into focus, the tone stops and you hear a crew member say: "This is Shirley Clarke, 'Portrait of Jason.' Roll one, sound one. Sound rolling, camera rolling."

  9. The journey of Judge Joan Lefkow

    Tribune staff reporter
    A few days ago, Joan Lefkow was walking down a Chicago street flanked by federal marshals when a panhandler walked up to her and said, "God bless you, Judge Lefkow." It has been nine months since U.S. District Judge Joan Humphrey Lefkow's name and face...

  11. Heavy Hauling Doesn't Require Dropping Big Money

    When architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe adopted the motto "Less is more," he was referring to a minimalist approach that favored getting more function and design cues from a building's structural elements. While he didn't have cars in mind, current trends...
