Bears fans preparing to riot but the stadium puts Serengeti's "Dennehy" on the PA and they all calm down instantly and begin milling about harmlessly. "Keep the juice in your chops," they mutter to each other, absently if still somewhat warmly. "Keep the juice in your brats."

Williams Sonoma Brown Sugar Bear Keep brown sugar soft and moist so it's always ready to use. Simply soak this terracotta clay bear in warm water for 20 minutes, pat it dry and place it on top of brown sugar in an airtight container....

Why Isn’t My Favorite Composer More Popular?

On the wonder that is the music of Leos Janacek. Is there no billionaire in Chicago who has caught the bug and is up to bankrolling a festival of all of Janacek's amazing operas?

Going Down Swinging The Point of Putting Up a Fight

Here. I wrote about the point of deciding to just fight and die on a hill rather than endlessly calculating the best moment to put up an opposition.

Create a new asset class. Give it to politicians. Force their citizens to buy it.

Defector | The last good website. Defector is an employee-owned sports and culture website brought to you by the former staffers of Deadspin.

I always feel strange doing this sort of thing but Defector.com has had an incredible January, just a ton of really good stories on a wide range of topics, and I suggest subscribing to it. I am biased, obviously, but I am really proud and grateful to get to do this the way we're doing it.

This is the most Oak Park event not happening in Oak Park. (But it IS right next door in Forest Park at Robert’s Westside- an excellent live music venue that gives the community what they want!)

Paywalls are down for the Architectural Review this weekend, so you can revisit Zach Mortice's essay on the now eviscerated Thompson Center, photos of which will grace the cover of many a book on the lost treasures of world architecture.
