We don't write about the Bears two weeks running and they have a two week winning streak under their belts. If we don't write about them for two more weeks, they'll be a .500 ball club.What? Season over...? What the...?!?
Oh well, maybe next year.

First Homicide?
- A 61-year old woman was found dead in her South Side home Saturday afternoon, the apparent victim of a home invasion, police said.
The incident happened in the 11000 block of South Lowe Avenue in the Roseland neighborhood. According to police, the door to the residence was kicked in and a number of items were taken, including the victim's 1998 Jeep Wrangler which was later recovered.
Police said the victim had signs of blunt trauma.
Or do you count the one that has been dead a few days?
- An unidentified body, apparently of a male, was found in the trunk of a car in the Englewood neighborhood this afternoon, officials said.
The body of a decomposed person was found in the trunk of a car on the 5700 block of South Loomis Avenue, according to a spokesman with the Cook County medical examiner's office.
[...] police are awaiting the results of an autopsy scheduled for Sunday.
Questions questions.

Another BS Headline
The media continues its slow death. Headline in the Tribune:
Oh no, everyone is thinking, here we go again. Then when you read the story:
Jacobs [the deceased] was driving eastbound on 112th Street when her Kia Rio sedan went through a stop sign and drove into the intersection of 112th and Kedzie Avenue, Lesniak said.
Jacob's car was then struck by the off-duty female officer who was driving a Dodge Durango truck southbound on Kedzie, Lesniak said. The Durango was the officer's personal car, Lesniak said.
So the dead woman was the at-fault vehicle. And now it's coming out she may have had a seizure and been dead while the car was rolling through the stop sign. So what purpose does it serve naming the occupant of the other car (who is a VICTIM in this case) as a CPD member?
Fortunately, a larger number of people call out the Trib for it's obvious bias in the comment sections. The headline over at the Sun Times isn't much better, but the comments run the same direction as the Trib's - stop the BS.
Maybe the tide is turning subtly our way again?

Save the Date
From a long time fan, a worthy event coming up:
- Once again, the St. Baldrick's Organization has requested the assistance of the men and women of the Chicago Police Department in 2010. For those unfamiliar, St. Baldrick's is an organization that raises money that goes towards research of a cure for childhood cancer. Participants agree to shave their heads in support of the kids who lose there hair in chemo treatments, and seek pledges for doing so. Participants with longer hair are also able to donate hair longer than 12" to be used by "Locks of Love" to make wigs for the patients that do lose their hair. We are also looking for volunteers, especially anyone who is licensed to cut hair.
This year's event will be held on Friday, March 19, 2010 from 7:00 a.m. until 5:000 p.m. and in the near future I will post more information as to how to sign up. In the mean time you can e-mail me with any questions you may have at chromedome1269@sbcglobal.net. We will again be utilizing the Training Academy, Area 2, and Area 5 and hope to surpass last year's total of over $96,000.00 raised to help fight this horrible disease that has impacted so many of us.
There are other St. Baldrick's events throughout the Chicago Area so if the date doesn't work for you or you wish to attend a different one please check out www.stbaldricks.org for events in your area.
Thanks for reading and hopefully in advance for your participation and I will post more information soon!

Last year, at least one of the beneficiaries of this event was the child of a Chicago cop. And last year, we saw some pretty lumpy noggins shaved bare for this worthy cause. If you can stand the looks and the cool breeze through the scalp during a blustery March, maybe you can be one of the heroes fighting childhood cancer.
And Speaking of J-Fed
Where has he been lately? He's been eerily quiet, almost like he's disappeared. Wait a minute...what's this?
It appears to be an unmarked black SUV. Parked at HQ. In the reserved spaces for exempt staff. Covered in snow?
Well that can't be - the orders for Winter Operations state that unused Department vehicles must be started at least once during a 24-hour period and run for 10 minutes so as to ensure proper function. Especially in the case of bone-numbing cold on tap for the next week or so. Leaving the superintendent's car covered in snow would seem to be a no-no.
Hopefully he's seeking out a retirement locale for next February.
