Having been a licensed daycare provider for 10 years now I will say that my backyard belongs to the 9 little people that I care for everyday.

Rooftop owners have no rights to Cubs May 18, 2013 12:00 AM
An Arlington Heights letter to the editor: The rooftop owners give new meaning to Chicago being the "city of thieves." If they are successful in court and are allowed continued grand larceny, this would set a tremendous court precedent and defense for future bank robbers.

Silver linings for Palatine 3,200 relay, Meadows’ Keller May 18, 2013 12:00 AM
Tess Wasowicz put her best foot forward — and didn't wince. In the end, all was well in a season that wasn't always well for the Palatine star. What the senior described as a "stress reaction" in her left foot kept her from competing on the track for half the season, but the perennial state qualifier left Eastern Illinois University's O'Brien Stadium with a runner-up state medal draped over her neck after joining 3,200-meter relay teammates Kara Burton, Liz Cox and Cassidy McPherson ran strong on the season's final day, finishing second (9:12.21) in the Class 3A race behind only New Trier (9:04.86). Another state veteran, Rolling Meadows senior thrower Morgan Keller, also left Charleston happy. She finished in second place in the discus (149 feet, 7 inches).
